Why do women I meet use me as their "Emotional Tampon?"

Much to my chagrin, I have been in your situation. I give them the most absurd advice I can think of, punctuate it with a wet fart and excuse myself, never to return again.:Q

LMFAO!

Nothing new here, women never get along. Reminds me of the time I supervised a department made up of 23 women. Talk about hell on Earth.

Usually they can sniff out the guys who won't gossip other crap etc.

Either that (hopefully) . . .

or they are mistaking you for gay ( :Q )

🙁

:Q Nooooooooeeeeeeeeeesss! OMG!!! Nooooo! AIIEEEEEEE! Gay, I'm not. I'm the biggest chauvanist pig out there. 😀

You mean you're "butch." 😀

It could be that they are mistaken . . .

Hopefully . . .

Women are (generally) good judges of who to use as an emotional tampon. 😉

😀

(and if ALL of them are mistaking you . . . .)

This isn't a complaint as much as an observation. Most women I meet (business included, not just personal) use me as their emotional tampon right off the bat. They just start talking to me, telling me all these personal details. I don't even ask! 😕

I guess I'm easy to talk to or something. There's a new woman in my office. No pics, OK? I would call her average looking. Nothing special, but a nice girl nonetheless. Worked with her for three weeks now. I have no sexual interest in her at all.

We've been having lunch occassionally, mostly covering work-related stuff, chatting in the office etc. But since like her second day, she'll just launch into "You know, Kathy is SUCH a bitch to get along with! KNow what she said to me? Let me tell you...blahblahblahblah."

Ironically "Kathy" does this as well! It's like I meet these women, shake their hand and they start bitching about their husband/boyfriend/mother/dog/shoes or whatever.

I don't think this happens to most guys. What the hell is going on? Do I have Tampax written on my forehead in visible-only-to-women-ink?

Most women I have met love to talk about their feelings. From what I understand it is rare for them to find a man who is willing to listen. Apparently you are good at listening.

Heh, I've had a ton of practice, especially w/my latest ex-GF. The one I bitched about for the past year...the one that got fat as a beached whale.

She would TALK...and I mean freakin' YAKKITY-YAK on the phone. She would begin a sentence and it ended three or four minutes later. She'd start bitching about something and here's what I'd do:

Get the jist of the conversation, then I'd literally put the phone down on the desk, get up, go make a drink, go pee, come back and pick up the phone just in time to hear her say "and what do you think of that?"

I would just belt out some reply about how "John is insensitive" or "I think you need new tires on the car" and she'd be happy. Truth be told, I have no idea about anything we "talked about" the last 6 months of the relationship.
