We are not interested if we do 1 or more of these things:

1. run away whenever you talk to us or if we see you and we walk quickly the other way
2. give one word answers to your questions and never ask anything about you
3. after asking us 3 or more times to do something and we ALWAYS tell you we are busy and never offering an alternate date that we are free
4. tell you we are not interested. yes, we really mean it.

ok, considering how this board is full of guys and knowing how you guys LOVE to point out how us girls are always wrong and confusing and don't make sense i'm ready for the bashing!

If you aren't going to bash, contribute your own advice to all of the clueless guys out there who JUST DON'T GET IT!

It is never black or white how you describe. There's cat and mouse game [some] women like to play, teasing, flirting, words and actions with double meaning, etc, and after all playing the innocent girl; so sometimes it ends up with a rape when you "don't get it" that you're playing with stronger sex.

males may be stronger physically but if you look at mortalitiy rates and all the stuff our testerone does to us, we are f*cked, haha

That's called "playing hard to get". Doesn't work on me. We still see each other... well... I see her....

you just need to say number 4.

Be direct, upfront, and honest.

Or is that too damn hard for you?

Instead of laughing it up, why not be mature about it?

Girls can be mature or is that an oxymoron?

Damn do I ever hate girls who play hard to get, play mind games, and then laugh when the guy is just clueless with all the mixed signals.

Women do NOT give mixed signals. They are extremely clear. You just have to know how to understand them. Know your role, and play it perfectly.

Men/Women can't just automatically dismiss 50000 years of evolution.


Women do, indeed give mixed signals. There is even studies that have found that .

Sure it does, and it sometimes brings more.

Surprise sex -> Prison -> more surprise sex.

Things would be great if most women were this honest. However, you left out one of the most common situations.

5. Woman is not interested in man but continues to sometimes flirt with him. This leads him on and causes him to continue giving her attention, which is all she desires from him.

The 'nice' guys will get suckered by this and gradually become bitter. The 'bad boys' will lose interest and go looking for someone else. At that point she will suddenly become insecure as to why he didn't want her, start chasing him, and then he gets laid.

Most guys figure out by their mid 20's (or sooner) that it's easy to get laid / have fun / etc if that is all you want from women. The hard part is if you want to find a nice, honest, doesn't-play-games, head-on-straight woman to marry. They're out there, but they are rare and have many men seeking them. So, good luck guys!

here's a tip.

1. if a girl is doing one of those 4 things consider her not interested and not worth your time
2. if the girl is doing one of those things but is just playing games...decide you dont want to be with a girl who likes to send mixed signals AND DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME WITH THEM.

problem solved!

geeks are the biggest whiners. if you think a girl is a nutcase then stop pursuing them!!

and no i am not a teenager giving advice.

lets try losing a bit around the hips ladies, then you will get the attention you need in real life and not have to find it where people cant see them.

Girls like to flirt with guys in general, regardless if she likes him or not. They just like the attention.

What I don't understand is why is it when a girl knows I like her goes ahead and STILL tells me her encounter with her crushes? It's not like she doesn't has a clue, she does. And perhaps it's her way of telling me to back down. Point taken but kind of cruel, no? Especially when the scenario repeats itself 10x over. And no, I've never actively pursued her or asked her out on a date, but I knew my actions was a dead giveaway and slowly backed away.

When she said she'd call me 5x but never once bother the next day, but not even bother to give an excuse or tell me not to wait I very well knew the answer to where things were headed.

Do us guys a favour and please don't use us as emotional tampons for your guy troubles or who you have crushes on, we really don't want to hear it. Honestly, I feel like sh!t every time its brought up. Save these kinds of discussions for your girlfriends.

Oh, and you're not automatically mature because you say you are. Maturity has nothing to do with age.

I do this too. I've gotten so many mixed signals, I just don't really bother anymore.

You said "we" in your OP, that means you do those 4 things too. Thusly, you are not worth our time ;) :p

Oh yeah, and what about the bipolar ones?

Addition: 5. She has PMS, PMDD, is substantially insecure, is clinically insane, has relationships that last three days, and also happens to be crazy. She just does whatever to get any sort of attention as she's desperate. She ends up getting rejected and then comes crawling back later, only to find out that the guy was tired of the crap. :p

To be perfectly honest with you, here's another rule. If a girl gives you crap:

1. Use confidence
2. If it persists, call your system administrator (er, I mean MOVE ON and ignore her for the rest of your life)

It's no wonder girls like that live such miserable lives. The only guys that can stand to listen to it are the "nice guys". But hey, it's nobody's fault but their own.

The reason is simple: they are trying to trick you. Counter it with testosterone until it stops (i.e. instill fear with personality). My decoder says OP desperately wants sex with ATOT (yes it IS scary). Note in the OP the pathetic attempts at insults due to jealousy.

You're pretty much flying blind. You can either sit there with the engine idling and never get anywhere, or stomp on the gas and potentially crash into a wall at full speed. This is the man's burden. This is the cross we must bear to propogate the species.
