Do men really think
Posted: 5/21/2008 6:45:02 AM
So you have no female friends??? Only the women who are interested in you sexualy are worthy of your time????


I have female acquaintances, not close friends.

The only true female friend I want is one that I'm in a loving sexual relationship with, period.

Correct me if I am wrong. I have had men who are 250 pounds over weight come on to me. I am phyically fit and work out. Watch what I eat. Do you think a guy that large will want to do any of that???
I have had men in their 60 come on to me. Who's hobbies and interst are gardening and fishing. LOL I dont garden or fish.

I just wonder if men are really interested in who the woman is or what she looks like. Which is more important????


How could I correct you? You're stating a fact, these men tried hitting on you, what am I supposed to do, try to tell you they didn't?

Basically the truth came out in this post... it's YOUR ego that's the problem here, not these men who are hitting on you. You basically just said that these men disgust you and in your world they should never have even tried asking you out in the first place. That about sum it up?

Is it so inconceivable to you that a fit woman could like an overweight man? I see it alllll the time out in public, apparently this doesn't happen where you live?


And to answer your last question, it's a womans appearance that INITIALLY attracts us, then it's the personality that makes us want to stay. If you're not even remotely attracted to someone physically then why would you want to bother getting to know them better for the purpose of dating?? You wouldn't, end of story, and I'm sure you do this too, stop acting like ur shit don't stink.

It is a waste of time if I am not attacted to the man. I dont find little kids sexual attactive, women, grossly over weight men or men older enough to be my father. I dont think I am being real picky that leave a great many other men out there. But no matter how phyically attracted to a man I am if we have NOTHING IN COMMON. I dont see a future for us. I am not going to change who I am to be with and I know men dont change for anyone. Looks are important but so are things in common once again if it was that easy we would not need POF would we??? Any old thing would do.

OP, from what I gathering, are you asking if men should think beforehand if they are good enough for you before making a move?

Are women not allow to be attracted to men?? I want to know why when I say I dont think we are a match. We dont have alot in common they get all poopy. And attack me. It is like I should be gratful for attention. Is that what men think all women should be gratful to any male attention????
I think I am being nice by not leading you on. If there is NO chance then there is NO chance. I want to understand why they get all upset and I think that starts with why a man will approach a woman. And all I have heard is men approach women with all their ego in hand.

good enough jimtash71 on 5/21/2008 824 AM

If you have a good chance with this person. And if you do come over and she expresses no interest why get sh!#y about it. She is not interest. I think they are much more egotistical to expect everyone you approach will be all into you. And if they are not gratful enough to be then you have every right to get pis$y about it.

I think that you need to understand that it takes a lot of nerve for a man to face rejection.

Do these men verbally assault you or something? They should know better if they do.

Do you think they should stick around and be your friend after you rejected them? In that case, you should know better.

Nobody likes rejection. NO ONE. It stings. But it comes with the territory and if you are so insecue that you cant handle rejection then maybe you should consider weather you should be dating at all. But that is just one woman's opinion .
What other people think of my me is no concern of mine. What I think of myself is. Men think they are the only ones allowed to have self confidence.

Do I think "ALL" women would/should be attracted to me? Oh goodness no, I realize I'm not every gals kettle of fish, just as I realize every gal isn't my kettle of fish, but how in the world will I know this unless I approach them or vice/versa. I will approach a woman that I consider attractive if she isn't holding herself in a manner that screams "I'm too good for you" (she has to be friendly and approachable, which in its self adds to the attraction). Should I be second guessing myself if I approach her and she is an incredibly physically attractive girl? Why should I? Attractive girls need loving too. ;)

Why do some guys get all up in arms when you turn them down? Well some people have very little self esteem and it took a great deal of courage to approach you so they are just lashing out. Besides I have no idea how you are turning them down, their response could be a direct reflection of yours... Who knows.

What you don't realize is that men's self confidence allows them to go after anyone. Your self confidence makes it hard for anyone to go after you. Two different things.

Sure everyone has standards, but some people set them so high that no one is capable of ever reaching them.

So many questions!

1. Not every woman wants me. Just the smart ones do.

2. As for whether I look for women who are upstairs in the looks department, well, I like to watch them walk upstairs. They jiggle.

3. Yes, I can talk a woman into being sexually attracted to me. Like right now, you are. Don't fight it, it's natural.

4. I have nothing in common with the women I am not dating.

And yes, men really do think.

Of course you are, show me exactly where someone said otherwise in this thread? (You're making shit up)


I want to know why when I say I dont think we are a match. We dont have alot in common they get all poopy.


You didn't mention this in your original post so you're adding something knew to try to play innocent... not gonna work. Their reaction might have something to do with the way in which you turn them down... are you rude to them by any chance?



It is like I should be gratful for attention. Is that what men think all women should be gratful to any male attention????



NO. All men DO NOT think like this... where the hell do you get this stuff??? Maybe some men act like this but for the most part it's a big NO. Although it would be nice if you were flattered that someone built up the courage to ask you out and show you that they like you.


I think I am being nice by not leading you on.


Since you're obviously unaware of this, men suck at picking up on hints one way or another. So even if you're not "leading him on" and he still likes you, chances are he might ask you out... omg it's the end of the world!!!



If there is NO chance then there is NO chance.


Oh yeah, should I also mention we're not mind readers?




And all I have heard is men approach women with all their ego in hand.


Then you must be deaf.




edit:

I believe everything but the last part. All the blood rushes from your brain and you cant think stright. You lose it.


Yet another brilliant deduction, well done Sherlock.

"Do men really think that every woman wants him regardless to what he looks like or what kind of job he has or how smart he is???? "
No, but sometimes I am pleasantly suprised when I hook a hottie.

"Also do they seek women right across them looks wise or do they try to take as many steps up as they can."
I want someone at least as attractive, a gorgeous dumb dumb is ideal tho.

"Do men think they can talk a woman into being sexually attacted to them???"
Yes, its not really that hard, you just keep mentioning your net worth.

"Also do men really want to have anything in common with the woman they are dating or do they think they will turn her on to a couple of new things???"
I really dont care.

Hope this helps................

No, can't speak for everyman but I think any guy with a little common sense is going to realize there are rules of attraction. Any guy that looks like me and is in the same tax bracket and thinks they are on par with Brad Pitt is a flippin idiot.


Also do they seek women right across them looks wise or do they try to take as many steps up as they can.

I think most guys want to be with as good looking of a girl as possible. Most of us are not dumb though and realize the better we look the better our chances are.


Do men think they can talk a woman into being sexually attacted to them???

No, I personally avoid giving any dissertations or lectures during sex so I don't see how my speaking ability can be any sort of turn on to a women. Talking a good talk does help with overall attraction but a guy has to have other things going for him. I mean how many women here want to jump James Carville's bones?


Also do men really want to have anything in common with the woman they are dating or do they think they will turn her on to a couple of new things???

Things in common help, you have to be able to bring your own things into a relationship though. You have to find a happy median between being individuals and being a pair, couples on the extreme ends of that spectrum usually don't work out.

Hope that answers your questions, I'll be here all night.

Look at it this way: men aren't going to sit around and waste time with someone that they know doesn't want anything more than to be friends with them. Why should they?

It's not all about the sex either. If I ask a woman out on a date that I've been talking to for a while and she rejects me, why should I stick around while I could be out searching?


Ok this confused me a little. It's not all about sex but if there's no sex on the cards you're not interested? Then it is all about sex.

I don't consider spending time with someone whose company I enjoy but am not attracted to as a waste of time. That's what friends do. To say that a woman isn't worth spending time with unless she'll sleep with you is not only insulting but short sighted. You're discounting 51% of the population as friends merely because they're women.

Most men only want one close female friend, their partner.

As a single man, I'm looking for a partner and not a buddy. Sure we can be aquaintances and chit chat when we run into each other and that's as far as it goes. But as far as having a woman around to share my life with, I need more from her rather to than just be a friend. So in a way, sex does have something to do with it but it also goes beyond that.

Men, or at least I need other men around for friendship, it's a male thing. But I would let my partner in more than any of my male friends. Get it?

Oh and BTW, I could care less about 51% of the population.

I fully appreciate that the relationship you have with a partner is hugely different to that which you have with a friend. But it does annoy me when men come on here complaining that women think that all men want is sex when a lot of them share the view that women aren't worth spending time with unless you get to have sex with them. I have lots of male friends, they compliment my female friend by giving me a different perspective on life, I can talk to them about things that a lot of my female friends aren't interested in like football and cars (sorry for the stereotypical subjects) and I consider myself to have a rounder, fuller view of the world as a result.

The fact that you "could care less about 51% of the population" might be one of the reasons for you being single. Get it?

It is a waste of time if I am not attacted to the man


Then it's a waste of time for anyone to contact you because no one knows what you find attractive.

Maybe you should just keep up with the attitude and only approach people you're attracted to, then they can complain to people on the internet too that they get people coming to them that they aren't attracted to.

The reason I'm really still single is because I've worked my ass off. I don't worry about the price of gas or the sub-prime mess as I have the deed to my house and the titles to five cars.

Yeah I could actually really care less about most women as being my friend. And even though you think the men are your friends, one day they will let you down because they will want more.

I'm telling you straight up that if I'm single and a single female knowingly walks into my house, that it won't be to chit chat or watch tv. I won't let that happen. Get it?
