Can someone help me to understand men?

It is possible that the approach of these guys you describe has something to do with messages you are inadvertantly giving out, but I'm not sure.

Is there something you are doing or saying that invites that type of response from men? Are you dressing in a sleazy manner? Are you making racy comments? Or are you disregarding danger signs early on?

If someone talks about sex right away, that to me is a big red flag that this is an immature person who either isn't interested in a romantic relationship or has some immature reason for trotting out an issue that is not relevant till later on.

Think about your role in this.

Seriously, what's an alpha female? I never heard of the term.


I'm gonna let smjle ATTEMPT to answer that, I have to be someplace in a few minutes. Later on I'll check back to see how wrong he's got it. LOL.

There is no understanding men any more than men can understand women. It is more about understanding each other. I don't know about you, but I consider myself to be a big girl and if I want to have sex, I will. I don't think at this stage in the game it should be shyed away from. It is a very important part of a relationship and if you can't even bring it up now, how are you going to perform to your fullest when the time is right. You are the only one who can decide when and who. But don't be shy about it, it is part of a healthy life. We all think about it every day.

You need to ask the right questions before you get the right answers. Any guy who says he doesn't like sex, is lying, or trying to think of what you want him to say based on what he knows about you already. Honesty is the best policy. You're just asking to get lied to when you ask a guy about "....blank... sex...", so, just tell him up front, "you are not getting laid tonight, unless I decide, and probably not ever if you're a complete jerk... "

also, here's a good guide to the male mind ;

1: Guys like sex.
2: Guys like food.
3: Guys like sex, and sometimes food after sex, before sex, or during sex.
4: Guys are like girls, they like sex, and food but not necessarily both at the same time.
5: You will never understand men, YOU MAY understand the guy you've been dating for several months after you've probed his mind. But honestly, it's about sex, food, beer and stuff he finds interesting.

And Finally...

6: Guys like Sex, have I mentioned that one?

Unsure why the thread got resurrected, but for anyone curious to understand the other sex, there is plenty of literature out there. Try authors Allan and Barbara Pease set of books; there are several on the big book sites, they give lots of examples of how men and women think and communicate differently, and how to adjust our own behavior to compensate for it. They helped me a lot.

American cow girl ????
When people 'This includes women too." start getting a big as a COW .
Oh ,, Did I hit a nerve?
Sex is a natural thing for people to do when with someone they are interested in.
If a gal doesnt want sex with me then she had better not be wanting me to act like her boyfriend...
And as far as a guy doing you a favor by having sex with you..
I say bullsh!t.!!!
He's the one wanting the favors..
As for myself,, I wouldn't even do it with an overweight woman.!
Unless she has very deep pockets and is willing to pay me ....

Nope because those aren't men. To give you a correct definition, men have self-control and this refers to all aspects of their lives. Those who can think of nothing but having sex are more correlated with our four legged friends (and some have enough body hair to look the part!)

Both men and women want sex. It's just when is the time right? You will know when you meet the right person, just hang in there. Usually guys will press for it early on and it may
ruin everything. Be open and up front as to what you want and vice versa, not communicating will leave assumptions and crash the whole thing. Good luck and keep
up your spirit.

Just think of them as little boys in big bodies with raging hormones until they prove otherwise. LOL

men, we like sex. A relationship without sex is a friendship and we'd rather be friends with guys (most of us anyways).

If I ever get to understand men, I would be a fricking millionairess.

They are a mystical beast, that cannot be tamed, they have their own rule book (that changes all the time).

Msg 111 - if that were true hunni, why do so many men fall asleep on the sofa at home, but go out to find a mistress? Just wondering where the mythical beast is taking this thread?????

did anyone notice this was started in 2006??
and ps nebula...why was that post necessary? she didn't ask if anyone
here wanted to have sex with her.
I checked your profile...pretty sure you don't have woman banging on your
door with mattresses strapped to their backs either.
Why are people so judgemental and rude in here anyways?

sex should be something natural not forced, if at first there wasn't a chemistry there, no sex will fix anything

browneyesboo, "that was funny".."Woman banging on your door with mattresses strapped to their back"..
Nebula, "Stop messin with the larger gals"...Thats not nice....
Chainfire, "Im sorry kido , "Are you out of puberty yet"?...
I can't add my two cents to this thread...It would be too funny, anyhow....
I love it when woman say, "Why do men only want sex"?...My response is," sometimes, all the time, never and maybe... "Depends on the woman and the relationship"...

To borrow from Winston Churchill's observation on democracy..... perhaps the only thing worse than finding a man who is only interested in sex is finding a man who has no interest in sex.

Men are usually expect sex within 2-4 dates myself I would think you were not attracted enough to me if you did not want sex after a month or so . Lets face it we are all sexual ,if you don`t want to have sex and just be friends you should add that to your profile Stop wasting mens time or stay home with your cat !!!

I agree with Felanie.
I bring it up early. Not as a condition but as a possibility.

Dear American Cowgirl... I had some experience of lesbians chasing me for sex too, and I am not mad about them because I am plain straight, but also not mad about men or whoever else the animal that comes raging the hormones at me like I would be a release paper bag... and I bet you, such creatures can't hold to the punch as much as they talk about...

Don't be sorry, it is human nature... Some of us do even take viagra to push it nicely... am I lying?

Just say a clear no right away, and do not ever regret or look back at things that just don't suit you, be sure, the right one will come when you really can behave and accept things naturally and not defensive.

Relax and enjoy the precious present.

well let me tell you you havebeen finding a few bad seeds. it might be what your attracted too that might be why your getting this kind of responce from guys. most of your players and bad boys are like this. keep the friends thing going because its your best deffence agains players, they wont stay around once they know the door is shut. No all guys act like this so its a numbers game, you have to keep nocking on those doors until you meet the right one.

yes its sad that women and men have to weave out the bad ones but thats the way its done. I promise you you will find that one true prince. hes out there just let it happen by being friends first and if hes the one he will hang in there untill you think hes good or he proves hes a good person. oh by the way there is no such thing as nice guy its called a good friend.
