Posted: 9/27/2008 11:10:46 PM Just because one is looking for a long term relationship doesn't mean the first person they make a connection with will be whom they want a long term relationship with. It sounds like this guy met the criteria and things you were searching for, but you didn't necessarily meet his.  bbanditx Joined: 5/15/2008 Msg: 225 (view)   Guys, feeling depressed about this site? This will help! Posted: 9/27/2008 11:03:26 PM LOL. I did indeed get a good laugh out of this which I could really use about now. Kudos to you.  bbanditx Joined: 5/15/2008 Msg: 136 (view)   Why do some men act interested, then pull back? Posted: 9/27/2008 10:49:38 PM Well sometimes as one gets to know another person on a deeper level things that they don't like and aren't willing to accept can come to the surface. Thus, they pull back despite their initial interest. In your particular case the guy may have been opposed to dating a women with kids, but liked you so he decided to just give it a shot and see if maybe he could deal with it. After giving it a shot he may have just decided it wasn't something he could deal with and thus pulled back. All in all this is just part of the normal dating process. It surely does suck I can say, but it's going to happen. Sometimes you'll be the one doing the pulling back and other times you'll be the one being pulled away from. I suppose it'd make things more helpful if we knew why the person had a change of heart, but that is seldom the case and if we do get a reason it's usually something generic like we're not compatible all the while we know there was something(s) specific they didn't like.  bbanditx Joined: 5/15/2008 Msg: 21 (view)   Can a relationship work out if the woman does the chasing? Posted: 9/27/2008 2:35:07 PM Sure. We live in a different world now and it's perfectly more acceptable for a woman to go after a guy she likes. There are some men who don't like this, but there are men who do. Besides if the guy you like is more the introvert quiet type it might take him a while to get up the nerve to pull the trigger and ask you out.   Show ALL Forums
