| Guys Help Me Understand The I Just Want to be Friends, But... Posted: 8/26/2008 9:02:58 AM | Raphael - I couldn't agree with you more! You are probably the only one here that understood my opening post wasn't 'complaining' about the boob grab… and that I never said I 'wanted' a 'boyfriend' or felt 'disgruntled' in anyway. I simply wanted to understand why... and now I do thanks to the guys here. As far as the posters who slammed me go: Esad: you said: Oh yeah! A great way to get along! Call folks "mindless" AND Childish .. Well, Esad, please get out yer big red marking pen and tell me how the following posts are not 'mindless' or 'childish':
Red: think I'd go with a nice 3" wedged heel pointedly slammed down on his foot while "accidentally" spilling your drink on his pants with one hand and an elbow to the chest. That combo is kind of a nicer, gentler way of making a point
Red C: Kicked him in the nuts and/or broke his arm. Or, you never had a chance to hear the sound of crushing bones... it's like a music to my ears. You should try it sometimes...
Clasact: Did you say, "Ya never know what you have until it's gone?" or something more brutal in mind? Like gouging his eyes out? Ah, but the squishing sound of gouging eyes has a certain ring to it too......Just sayin'
It'sBetterTogether: Smile real pretty at him as you gently slide your hand between his legs up to his crouch...now SQUEEZE real hard...until he gets the message that you ain't interested in having sex with him if your not his girlfriend.
Bullielover: Shoulda just grabbed his boy bulge and asked him for a drink. Rubbed your boobs against his chest and licked the outer rim of his ear and taken his wallet.
and My personal favorites :) lol …
Red: Would appear someone has issues relating to other females. Not sure exactly where you thought you were being bashed by me or what got you riled up enough to accuse the females here of posting mindless stuff but your peace sign seems a bit out of place. MYI: You flame others in this forum for having fun with the topic but you whisper to the guy who grabs your boobs….. I don’t want to get your drift. Whispered? **obviously not that offended or concerned about her dignity**
Gee, all, I wonder how it is conceivable that this OP might have 'issues' relating to other females…
Raphael is quite right - I have no desire to hear the violent and retalitory nature of these women's posts…
Dignity? I don't think they know the meaning of the word if you read their posts…
I 'whispered' because it was a crowded place and I wasn't pissed off at this man … I don't make 'scenes', create 'drama' or have 'issues'… I quietly spoke to him and let it drop…
I think the guys in this thread answered my question, thanks.

| Guys Help Me Understand The I Just Want to be Friends, But... Posted: 8/26/2008 10:06:55 AM | I was going to post a response to this thread - something along the lines of the fact that neither men nor women completely understand why another person will say or do what they do...... but clearly, since I don't have the magic wand, it would be pointless. Besides, appears OP that you answer all your own posts anyway. And please - don't feel the need to respond to my pithy little comment.
Still, damn fine reading over coffee this morning! 
Peace all. My two bits worth. jtf | |

I might add he has zero respect for you. I've known a few ladies along the path and would never treat any of them with a boob grab greeting.
This to me is code saying "you're a piece of meat and I'll take what I want and if you don't like it too bad" | |

Uh, my take on it that he wants to check that you are still available just in case he does not find someone that attracts him more while he's out playing the field.
From what little I know about this situation, my advice is to keep this a-hole at (more than) arm's distance. | |

| Guys Help Me Understand The I Just Want to be Friends, But... Posted: 8/27/2008 2:21:04 PM | Seeing that OP continues to bash other women in this thread (and esad ), though not only women made it light of this question that was really hard to take seriously to start with, let me just make a quick comment.
Dignity? I don't think they know the meaning of the word if you read their posts…
I 'whispered' because it was a crowded place and I wasn't pissed off at this man
I guess our ideas about dignity indeed differ.
Let's see how is dignity defined in Webster's dictionary.
Dignity
1: the quality or state of being worthy, honored, or esteemed
Having that definition in mind, if a guy who just dumped me was to approach me and grab me I would be VERY pissed off. I would not feel worthy, honored or esteemed. Because he just treated me like a piece of meat.
I would NOT wonder what he meant by it... because it it quite clear.
And I would make it very clear to him that he is absolutely out of line... Perhaps there would be no bone crushing (you do understand the concept of joke, I hope), but whisper would not be my choice of action.
But then again I don't spend much time in "watering holes", so perhaps rules of behavior that apply in that setting are too difficult for my immature, childish mind to grasp.

PS Post 42 very much nailed it, as far as I am concerned. | |

though not only women made it light of this question What?! There weren't any guys making light of the situation. It is a very heavy topic...or it could be depending on the boob size and fullness of said person involved...
PS Post 42 very much nailed it, as far as I am concerned And of course by "42" you meant "8" or "23" or "31" or even "43". Thanx RedC, you are too kind to make notice of me like that. | |

| Guys Help Me Understand The I Just Want to be Friends, But... Posted: 8/27/2008 9:43:28 PM | | It sounds like he wants to keep you strung on the line in case his wondering eye (or hands) don't have any luck with finding any other women. Obviously, his behavior in the watering hole, indicates that he certainly doesn't have any qualms about feeling up a strange woman (or so he thinks). He is so busted. I want to know how you reacted to this. | |
