| i dont understand women sometimes Posted: 5/26/2008 7:03:16 PM | This thread is not really a man/woman thing.It's a chemical imbalance. Either we are attracted, or not. Quite simple, really. And if you want to figure out the difference between man/woman speak, John Grey has come the closest in his Venus-Mars books. And celibrate the differences, fercryinoutloud. That's the fun of it!!! | |

| i dont understand women sometimes Posted: 5/26/2008 7:11:46 PM | | You know what, its better to be honest... someone asked me why I had deleted their email without a reply and it didn't occur to me that it may have hurt their feelings and so my response was polite -- Sorry, I'm just not interested. I think I should have done that in the beginning... but sometimes its just not easy replying to each and every email that is received. :( My appologies to all the men who I have just "deleted" without responding... but it goes both ways I'm sure. | |

| i dont understand women sometimes Posted: 5/26/2008 7:26:16 PM | How long has she been ignoring you? A day? Week? She could be busy, or had a family emergency, etc. Or she could have just decided she wasn't interested and didnt have the nerve to tell you for fear she would hurt you. I don't understand this either and I am a female, problem is, I am usually the recipient and I have heard lately from entirely too many guys, the "I am not ready for a relationship", or "things are moving too fast", after a few phone calls and maybe a lunch??? I dont get it either, I am not a drama queen and therefore do not understand the whole mentality of it. I have NO problem speaking my mind and sometimes it gets me into trouble, but I am honest and don't make people try to read my mind. Good Luck to you! | |

| i dont understand women sometimes Posted: 5/26/2008 7:39:14 PM | | WOW, you are giving this chick toooo much brain space. Quit trying to 'understand' and just keep asking women out for dates. You don't have to go to the time and money investment of lunch or dinner....just meet them for a beer or coffee. If you had 5 dates lined up this week you would be so busy keeping track of all of them, you would not have time to stress over one! Don't forget the golden rule......always meet (date) them two times before you make any choices......many happy married coupled had terrible first dates! | |

As to the original poster: Women are hard to figure out, just like men. It has been shown by Wittgenstein that a person's reasons for doing anything cannot be sufficiently established by looking at his or her actions alone.
So don't even try to figure women out. Figure them in, instead.
I like the "a drunk mind speaks a sober heart" saying or proverb. It's brilliant. I must at any price stay away from alcohol! And at these prices I must also stay away from gasoline. | |

| i dont understand women sometimes Posted: 5/27/2008 2:01:56 AM | It is quite simple really, Sir - It is very likely you are no longer a curiosity nor an interest to the Lady. And Sir, wouldn't it be respectful and more appropriate to pursue another with whom common interest and conversations can be mutually reciprocated? It is very likely you do not understand women sometimes but, the male understanding of women ...I mean "male egos" at most times do fail to grasp when they have fallen short of being worthy. | |

| i dont understand women sometimes Posted: 5/27/2008 2:20:24 AM | I read ......
ok here's what i dont get,
i meet a very lovly lady today for lunch, we had a great conversation, and went our serperate ways. she even said call me later or talk to her online, so i didcatch her online and both times she signed off.
now mine (mind) u we been talking the last two wks online and iming each other. she asked to meet me and now i get the cold shoulder, no explantion or nothing.
now i understand not everyone is going to hit it off right away, but what happen to more than one meeting or saying hey this isnt going to workout, but we still can talk and be friends.
so i would like to hear what u think espically from the ladies out there, you wonder why guys get frustarted on stuff like this.
Then I read.......
she never gave me her number, how else do u suppose to talk to her.
SO now I know why guys have such pityful reputations as being guys (A), and (B), I understand n-o-w why women dont' like to give out their numbers.
Im just sayin'  | |

She decided somewhere between 2 seconds and 2 minutes of meeting you that there wasn't any "chemistry" and the rest of the time spent (the great conversation) was just fluff to her. I wouldn't sweat over it. Those women won't end up in any decent relationship, because they don't get what it takes to make one work. | |

Wow, amazing how you can make a character assessment based on one fairly inarticulate thread. From the whole tone of the OT and his subsequent postings, I think this fellow isnt all that perceptive, according to his own words, the woman was being fairly non-commital and didnt agree to anything specific. So what at this point does she owe the OP? A complete forensic audit of their meeting? Perhaps he would be happier if she showed up with a power point presentation complete with charts and diagrams of when exactly she decided she didnt want to persue this any further. Would that make him feel better about himself?
From the tone of the OP, I dont think that it would have mattered what she said, he wouldnt have accepted it and moved on. JMHO. | |
|
| i dont understand women sometimes Posted: 5/27/2008 10:39:38 AM | | I agree, if she wasn't interested, she should have said so. If for no other reason, it is much simpler and easier on all involved! | |
|
| i dont understand women sometimes Posted: 7/8/2008 1:20:03 PM | | I agree with that. I don't think women should lead men on. Be straight up with them. It can be done in a diplomatic way. The other way is so cowardly, be it male or female. | |
|
| i dont understand women sometimes Posted: 7/8/2008 1:30:45 PM | | she is just not into u? Maybe the thought of you on-line was not the same in person? I'm not sure but dont waste ur time move on. Good Luck!!! | |
|
| i dont understand women sometimes Posted: 7/8/2008 1:41:22 PM | To the OP - it's not just women, behavior like this (by men as well) is indicative of the general decline of civility & consideration in our society. People are wrapped up in their own little worlds and don't take the time to consider the effects of their actions; also known as the "it's all about me" syndrome.
You're better off without her. | |
|
| i dont understand women sometimes Posted: 7/8/2008 3:30:40 PM | People dont like to speak the truth in order to avoid akward moments. Like my maiddd... she said she'd come back after her week off!! It's been three and she's still not back!! So here I am cooking everydayyyy... geezzz.... The world'd be so much better if ppl started being direct and honest | |
|
| i dont understand women sometimes Posted: 7/8/2008 8:02:27 PM | Man! I know what you are saying the confusion ? sets in I don't think we are ment to understand them ,but we sure do love them,If the lost dutchmen's mine had such mystery! | |
|
| i dont understand women sometimes Posted: 7/8/2008 8:22:45 PM | its a blowoff..pure & simple..she just doesnt have the ba''s to tell you directly..so she uses the wimp-out method.I look for body language on the first meeting...its huge....her eyes...the way her body is postioned..does she reach out and touch me on the arm?/..etc..etc.. todays soceity what with texting, im'ing, e-mailing, etc..we have become very 'impersonal'..so alot of ppl. dont feel the need to 'communicate' directly..the bad news...or they might be afraid you'll go ballastic or something.It's a numbers game nowadays.....put alot of coals in the fire so you're not so disappointed if one 'burns out'..capish?/ | |

besides, it was a disrespect in the way she handled it and I, for one, am gonna tell her how i feel..the good, bad, & ugly.
I agree with this. Most people are too timid to call the other person out. I'm not. Especially if we've spent enough time talking to develop feelings before the meet. If it's a meet after only a handful of E-mails and one or two phone calls, the other person doesn't owe much (although courtesy would be nice). In the former case where feelings have developed on one or both sides before meeting, then the person who is disinterested after meeting definitely owes it to the other person to say directly, "I like you, but I don't feel we have chemistry." Worse yet is when the disinterested person goes as far as to try to use the other person for sex, money, or what have you. If anyone ever were to do something like that, I would be very vocal about it and not in the least intimidated to stand up for my rights. | |

| i dont understand women sometimes Posted: 7/9/2008 12:48:01 AM | It's for the same reason men do it to women. She wasn't interested after she met you. It could have been anything.
For me: one guy's jaw was too square, another turned out to be a chiropractor, another was a DO (I have no respect for them), 2 guys were too short, 2 looked older in real life than in pictures, a couple had hidden bald spots in their pictures, one was a religious freak, one was unemployed and ranting about how nice I was to be accepting of that (I was being polite only), one was a player (it was obvious), and the others weren't as cute as their pictures. There was one exception, he wasn't as cute as his pictures, but he was still very cute. LOL (I ended going out with him several times and then HE blew it off! Poetic justice, I guess!) | |

| i dont understand women sometimes Posted: 7/9/2008 5:33:48 AM | | areofroce1, hello ..if you think about it, it is kinda/sorta funny..while dating we often think such crazy things in the process of getting to know one another. Take the time to contact her again but don't assume ant thing.. if it still remain the same after you contact her, then just move on ..remember that you are on a fishing site. lol..Use a very different type of bait. Have fun. | |
