Thanks for the info... Actually, I think I'm already a follower of your recommendations. If I'm being rejected I understand it promptly, I think, and never persist. I think I can imagine what it feels like when some guy is being persistent even when the girl doesn't like him and he doesn't understand it.
 
I agree with the point about just say "sorry, i'm not interested"...how hard is this?

From now on guys...let's all give stupid, pointless and indecipherable messages to girls that ask us out.

If you have a girlfriend/wife, go right now and ask her if you look fat. If she says yes, cry like a baby. If she says no, scream at her "You'RE LYING!! You're just trying to make me feel better!!" then start crying.

let's reverse roles for a bit! 😀
 
If this persists, do not continue iming her everyday. If you don't believe me, try not iming her for a whole month. If within that whole month she does not IM you, or at least ask you "hey, why haven't you been iming me anymore" then SHE DOESN'T LIKE YOU, not even as a friend.

Oh, well this explains why you've never answered my PMs!!! 😱

You have to be more direct if you're gonna complain about this. This is how that conversations came across...

Friday?
Um, not friday...

Saturday then?
Saturday's no good either...

Some other day?


Seems like you're interested because you just rule out the next two particular days he asks about and not EVERY day for the rest of eternity. Can you see how he may have once asked out a girl who really WAS interested but really just had plans for the upcoming weekend? What if that was the case? What if you were really interested? I'm guessing your post would go something like this:

"Why are guys so freaking shy? I mean come on, just because I'm busy the first weekend you want to go out with me, doesn't mean I'm not interested. I do have a life, and other plans that I have to keep, so just keep trying and when I have a free day, then I'll go out with you. SHEESH!"











Just tell him you're not interested. It'd save a lot of time, a lot of effort, a lot of thinking, and a lot of messageboard space 🙂 Actually, this one thread could be a symbol for all the inefficiency that is messing up the economy. 🙂
 
Jesus.... look at all these people harping on poor weezergirl....

I gotta say, I FULLY agree with everything you say there, girl.... but you can't limit this to only guys. I currently have a girl that is doing all those things to me (no, i'm not bragging), so it definitely applies to both sexes.

She IMS, calls, and wants to get together like everyday... and I keep coming up with excuses, becasue I'm simply not that interested, but don't want to be mean. when do they finally get the clue? now she's all excited because she has this great birthday present for me and i don't even want to accept it becusae it will send her the wrong signal....

if it doesn't click, it doesn't click.

At any rate... back off of weezergirl, everything she says is absolutely true... for both genders. ...... and settle down on taking her words so seriously... everyone's so uptight around here
 
Hey Kim, remember you are talking to Dweebs whose sole experience with interpersonal relationships are based almost totally from Forum's, Chatgroups and IM's. That's why this generation of Males pales compared to the generation before them. We didn't have computer technology to retard our growth as Humans and part of society. Reading between the lines wasn't hard for us as most of us were familiar with Chick Speak and stalking wasn't considered part of courtship like it is today with these dorks.
 
Don't worry about hurting the guy's feelings... he doesn't have any for you. If he keeps asking you out after all your "clues" and "disinterest" he just wants a piece. Strange how some women have such high opinions of themselves!

 
yup, common sense indeed. 99% of the times people post their girl questions here the answer is "move on". move on people, move on.
 
My problem is I'm not persistent enough...if a chick doesn't say anything and the conversation is 1 sided then I don't call for a week. The other problem I have is when a girls interested I never know...and continue treating her as a friend...then later when they're taken I'm always told they woulda been so about it if I woulda made a move. Then I see them and they're always like call me you never call me anymore. and I do have this problem where random people msg me on instant messenger all the time and everytime they're looking for smeone else and they dont' seem to understand that I'm not who they think I am.
Sh1t is always on the chick's terms. Thats why I won't ever ask a chick out unless I know its a sure thing. I've been w/ some of my chick friends and you wouldn't believe how many dumbasses come up and try to hit on them...then when someone halfway decent hits on them they usually just reject them becuase in most cases, if a dude is going to approach her then hes going to be weird or its going to be awkward. All the chicks I knwo go out and pick up their own guys...as in the girl always makes the first move because face it, even if a girl is average, and she approaches me, I'm going to give her the time of day. Even if I'm not interested in a relationship I'd still let her hangout with me. If a dude approaches a chick and shes not interested very rarely do they still want to hangout.
I did have a friend who could pull it off pretty well...the other day we're in an elevator...coming back from some career fair and he sees some recruiter whos pretty hot with a bunch of free slinkies...so hes all like can I have a slinky? and shes all like sure...and then he cuts her off and goes and your #....anyways...it worked because he did it as more of a joke than anything else so it wasn't all awkward for her.
 
why didn't someone tell me these things when i was 15? now that i am married it really isn't much use. I could try applying these rules to my wife's behavior, but that might get a little depressing!
















lol just kidding on that last one.
 
This is sort of related but sort of not....

What's up with guys who insist on being friends after you break up....then never call you again??

All of a sudden you're not good enough to hang out with anymore???

(NO I'm not bitter!) 🙂

dunno... did they dump you or did you dump them?
 
I think a lot of younger people spend wayy too much time thinking about everything and not enough time
actually out there doing things !

A lot of what goes down between men and women can't be run on a script, sometimes you'll win, sometimes you'll lose but you'll never get anywhere hiding at home tucked behind a monitor worrying about it. I can forgive a guy who fumbles on the approach, one who spends too much time over analying everything though .. that's crazy making and is the kiss of death for a dude as far as I'm concerned

Now it's a fine Friday nite, get out there and have some fun,you all worry way too much about things that will come naturally to you with some practice 🙂

well here's what i think happened then... i think he was trying to hang on to you with that dumb friends thing, but then realized he would only cause himself pain and misery so he cut off completely. which is the right thing to do, if you want to get over somebody.
 
weezergirl, all that stuff is obvious to any guy that has basic social skills...

unfortunately this is atot, home of the fapboys 🙂
