Owch! That's total disrespect, and you shouldn't let a guy get away with it. You deserve far better than that, as does every person. Forgetfulness is one thing, but ditching deliberately is something else entirely. Don't settle for less than the best. - 3 months ago
You know what? That is the number one fear many guys go through when considering asking a girl out. Sadly, many girls do just that. I'm fairly shy, but luckily my experience so far is that she was as nervous as I was - not that I wanted her to have any discomfort, but that I needn't have been so worried she'd scream at me. Interesting thought. - 5 months ago

Honestly I think girls just get tired of that. Well girls like me, who hate lingering around and waiting for guys to make the next move. I mean, if I've dropped hints, that means I either like you or I'm expecting you to ask me out. Rejection is rejection - other girls will come along. I mean, I've rejected guys and I've been rejected yet the world still turns, hm?
Well that was a little harsh but you know what I mean. :) - 5 months ago
Question Asker
I do, and I can see where you're coming from. That doesn't make it any easier to deal with rejection though. Sometimes a guy can become so besotted that he can't see any other girl as being the right one to ask out. I'm fairly sure that goes both ways. BTW, be careful with hints - many guys said that they hate that above all other things girls do in another question I asked. - 5 months ago
I hate. 1. When guys don't take me seriously / disregard stuff I say because they have huge ego problems 2. When guys think bringing up sex will automatically make me crazy for them (dirty jokes are only funny the first time) 3. Stalking - don't follow me around! It's suffocating! 4. When guys are overly-self-conscious around me. That just makes conversation really awkward.
1. Don't give guys like that the time of day, regardless of other 'qualities' they may possess - it's unlikely to change except to get worse. 2. Erg. Dogs, and smelly mutts at that. Personally I don't think you should show any interest in guys like that at all. They don't really respect you, or women. 3. Understandable. Guess I should hang up my dark glasses, cloak, and camera for good, huh? 4. You do realize what's going through their minds then, don't you? That's if only around you, though. - 5 months ago
Sheesh! You get so many points from me because I always try to agree/disagree and comment too. Oh well. Lol! Yeah, I can definitely see that one. It kinda makes you wonder what you're there for if he's selfish. Materialistic, some guys see it as budgeting if you don't have much. I can see that it will become a problem if he prefers wealth over a girl. Okay, that's an understatement. A guy that does that doesn't deserve the greatest treasure given to mankind. I'll let you decide what that is. - 6 months ago
Are we talking about men in general or just S/O's?. LoL. Because I could fill a book with things my hubby does that annoys me. Haha. Like taking his clothes off in the middle of the living room and not picking them up. Same with in the bathroom. Losing things all the time. Sitting on the comp for hours right when he gets home without even showing me any affection first. The list could go on and on. LoL
In general. I hate that men hold looks as the #1 reason for dating someone. While I do believe that looks will initially attract a mate. I do not think it should be the #1 factor in choosing between one person and another.
More then likely the guy will take the "hot " girl over the "cute" girl and the stick skinny girl with huge boobs over the average bodied girl. Even if the "latter" (in their opinion) is the one they are most likely to be happier with in the long run.
OR. When they will bone the hot girl first for a while and then expect the one they rejected before to come skipping back to them after they had their fun.
I also can stand the way guys can be very inconsiderate when it comes to people's feelings.
There's a few more I'm sure I will think of later. LoL
I can see where you're coming from about your husband. My mother used to HATE it when I did all of that. I hope I've gotten past that or my wife someday will hate it too. Looks are initial attraction for me, but they can't cover a bad personality. For me, I disagree with the third par. I'm not like that, thankfully as I want happiness rather than just a body. Some guys are def like that 4th par. Some inconsiderate, others inept, and few others good I can't wait for more - I want to improve. - 6 months ago
Answerer
The third part thankfully wasn't from my own relationships. But I have seen a lot of my male friends and friend of friends do it. And it really is sad that some men can be that way. But I know theat it goes both ways and I have seen a girls do it too. - 6 months ago
Well, it's in a guy's nature to be attracted to looks. We guys are more interested in seeing and touching things, you can trace that back to when we were little kids. This is usually why we have more of an interest in such things as video games, building stuff, and sports while you ladies are the social butterflies interested more in hearing & emotionally feeling things. That's why women usually love socializing much more than men and also why you ladies love poetry so much more than us guys. - 6 months ago
That's really disrespectful not to introduce an ex after giving her a hug, but I'm sure you don't like their hug either . I've heard it said that if you want to know how he'll treat you, take a look how he treats his mom - it shows for later in life . Guys are private with their feelings . Sorry . Sarcasm can be used as an defensive mechanism when things get a little uncomfortable, but sometimes we can hurt people that we love with it . BTW, see comments my other Q about what girls do that's annoying - 6 months ago
For me when guys are completely oblivious that a girl likes them and they definitely make it clear. Also when guys hesitate to ask a girl out. That is annoying!
Sorry, I'm a shy guy. That automatically makes me clueless and also terrified to ask a girl 'that' question. I do try though to be a little more in touch with what girls are feeling and thinking. Many guys don't, and they are blamed for being insensitive. - 7 months ago
You might be surprised at how not-clear girls make their intentions. I've never had a girl "clearly" interested in me, I always had to take the risk and move all the moves even in cases where she later told me she'd been interested in me before. - 7 months ago
I knew my girlfriend for a whole year before I finally found out from one of her friends that she had been "pursuing" me for the whole year prior to that. I had absolutely no clue - she never spoke more than two words to me each time we saw each other, so I just figured she was shy and didn't talk to people much. I had no idea she liked me at all! - 3 months ago
Question Asker
I'd say she was shy. Can't think of anything else that could do that. - 3 months ago
I must admit that this is the first time I've heard this one before. How's your tone of voice when you argue for what they did? Maybe there's something there that makes them think you're not serious. I'm sure it's highly frustrating and likely hurtful too - 7 months ago
Good point. Strangely enough, in some African cultures (not mine,) eye contact with older people is a sign of disrespect (you're challenging their authority). Generally though, I agree with you. It shows that you listen and respect the speaker. - 7 months ago
I Dislike when a guy says 1. " we going too hang out tomorrow" the next day comes and he changes his plan. 2. Show off when he is around his friends but acts different towards me. 3. Calls every second and when you don't pick up he keeps on calling and won't hang up
I agree, but that goes both ways. I can't think of any girls I know that smell bad, but do you really ever wonder why guys are so terrified of entering the cosmetics/perfume section of shops? Sometimes, too much of a great thing isn't so great. - 7 months ago
When a guy says "we should do something this weekend" and you get so excited about it and when it is the weekend he doesn't call you and you try to call him and it turns out he can't do anything, that really annoys me, and that happens to me all the time cause the guy I'm talking to is really flaky.
