Why can't girls be straight with guys?

I'll be as brief as I can here - On more than one occasion, I have asked a girl out and, on a rare event where she says yes, she will give me her number only to have her turn me down when I text her, or ignore me altogether. It is for this reason I started using dating sites, through which I actually got a few dates which seemed to go well but on each occasion I would text afterwards to say I enjoyed her company and ask I she would like to meet again. She would tell me she also had a good time and would like to meet up again but after that I would get ignored. It has now come to the point where it really gets to me. Why do girls do this?


Update: Thanks for your help, guys. What I can't get behind though is why girls are like that. There are all these things a guy should and should not do yet I, and I'm sure many other guys, would just be glad she came out. Girls leave no room for error.    29 days ago

Update: In addition, I am not so bothered about being rejected, I can take it, but it's the dishonesty that gets to me. Why tell a guy you like him if you don't want to see him again? And it doesn't hurt to give a reason.    29 days ago

Quit texting women as your means of communication. Texting to a girl is as impersonal as having someone else go out and buy her birthay present for her. I would much prefer a phone call after a date rather than a text. This isn't an issue with girls. You are generalizing the whole population of women as being liars. The common factor in all these relationships is you. An archer doesn't blame the target when he misses, he looks at himself to see where he could improve.

LosingMyReligion Actually.. they do the same thing when someone calls (I do this). it's so awful. - 19 days ago
Question Asker Thanks for taking time to answer, but in reference to your last sentence, how do I know what I'm doing wrong if they don't communicate? And setcheck67 below made a point of girls being like a field of landmines, all it takes is one step wrong to ruin it. I know from experience that it is true. If more girls put themselves in that position then maybe they wouldn't be so awkward. - 11 days ago

Because honestly, girls don't have the heart to crush a man. Nor do they have the courage to turn them down face to face. When they are suddenly put on the spot, they'll agree to almost anything that will make you happy... but then later they will go back on their idea.

Sorry woman are so cruel :/

Hey man I'm only 19 but I can tell by what you said that there is two major errors on your dates. First one is that (assuming you are making her laugh and she is having a good time) you need to kiss her at the end of the date. Not a full make out session but I light kiss. It doesn't even have to be mouth to mouth kiss her forehead or cheek if you are nervouse.
Second error: you have to play hard to get. I never believed that playing hard to get would work because I am one of those nice guys. It just wasn't part of me. But when I tried it, it worked almost every time. PLyaing hard to get keeps her on her toes. Don't send her a text and don't call her the night of the date and not even a few days after. stretch it out and make her wonder if you like her. The longer you wait to call her back, the more excited she will be to see that you are interested. BELIEVE ME THIS WORKS.
-- Just test it on a girl. You may not even be interested in her but just try to play hard to get and see where it goes. Practice makes perfect so when you find that girl you really like you will be able to play hard to get perfectly.

Here's something I learned a while back. Think of a date like a field of landmines, because in all honesty it only takes ONE thing for a girl to decide she doesn't like you. Now if you were in a field of landmines how would you go about getting through? Well first you would observe the ground to see if there are any differences for the mines might be. Essentially you watch what the girl does and talks about before the date. That way you know what conversations interest her. Second thing in a field of landmines is you will be very careful and precise where you step. This applies to a date, because if you say something she considered offensive, stupid, immature, innapropriate, unnecessary, unheard of, unliked, weird, boring, disgusting, another girl, sexist, or creepy she will automatically decide she doesn't like you.
The third thing in a field of landmines is keep your cool. Very few girls like a guy that looks like he will "jizz in his pants" if she touches him.

Question Asker I see what you're saying. I know all that but what I want to know is WHY girls are like that when stupid little things like that don't matter to guys, and quite right, because they don't matter. - 11 days ago

hey man. I'm right there with you on the dishonesty thing...i just want them to be honest with me...i think the reason their not is because they really don't know what they want until after a while, and your right there's no room for error, because I think that's how they do finally know...for example they got this pre test that all the guys have to go through and if they don't pass that's how they decide, only its one of those inner subconcious things...good luck figuring it out...i cant

First dates can be a death sentence if your not careful, according to your track record you are failing and not getting another date. There are many different reasons why a girl won't go on a second date, the reasons are countless, women are crazy and have no idea what is going on half the time.

You didn't go into detail on what you did on your dates, so all I can do is guess here. I am assuming you didn't kiss any of these girls after the date, or during the date. You probably went to dinner and it could have been boring to her, not the dinner but the conversations. All you have to do to get a girl to stay interested in you is make her laugh, don't let her walk all over you, and trust me on this they will test you, make fun of her playfully, flirt with her, and always go in for the kiss at the end of the night always. If I go on a date with a girl and kiss her at the end of the night almost 100% of the time she will go on another date with me.

You were brief so I'll follow suit. Fear of confrontation. It's the same reason why some girls will give you the wrong number when you ask them out. Its annoying but its a fact of life that all men suffer threw.

MY opinion, not yours.
Cheers.

Your are classified as a "Nice Guy" - they enjoyed the date but cannot seem to find you attractive as a potential boyfriend/etc.

For more success read the following article or try these hints:
link
- Break the touch barrier (Throw your arm around her or something, but be respectful)
- Stand up for your opinion, women like a man that can stand by his thoughts.
- Be the leader, take her places, but listen to her thoughts. Be curteous and thoughtful.
- Be considerate, if she is running late don't auto-assume she has blown you off.
- Get depth (school, work, social life, hunting, camping, whatever it takes)

If you need clarificaiton let me know~

Answerer *With your recent update*
People don't like confrontation. So instead of giving a reason or telling the truth (which would make you chase them) - they simply would stop calling you or start lieing to you, which will push you away.

This doesn't mean they are "LIEING" like people take it- this person is merely more satisfied with comfort and dishonesty - versus - honesty and confrontation.

Does that clear things up? It's definately a headache but whatever - 28 days ago
