I'd guess it is more to do with rejection than anything.
I presume they are asking you out rather than asking you if you want to be their girl friend right from the get go. So it isn't at the point of a relationship or anywhere close. I don't see how it can be at the point of men being upset with your desire to be single.
I'm interested in what the circumstances are that makes you think they are upset you are electing not to form relationships.
I'm dome with you men of today been done
I choose solitude peace and happiness
Why would I be upset with women choosing to be single? Their choice, and maybe an opportunity for me to get a free relationship like "friends with benefits"... More seriously I don't understand why women should not be allowed the free choice of being and remaining single.
Why would a man get upset at that? You're telling him. "This game piece isn't in play". Actually I'd think a guy would appreciate the heads up to the fact that he doesn't have to waste any effort on that woman.
Maybe because she's not really choosing to be single? Maybe she gives off signals she wants guys to approach her and then when they do she tells them she's not interested? I think that would annoy anyone, male or female.
Personally I don’t care and I don’t think most men care if a woman chooses to be single but I think men are frustrated with how much women don’t realize they control the dating market. I’m all for people taking time to be single and learn about themselves. A lot of women equate most if not all men to the men they choose to date and then when it doesn’t work out or that man treats her poorly then it’s pretty typical for her to think all men are out to do the same.
As you said in the updated section of your topic, I think it is societal conditioning. Media tells us “there’s someone for everyone.” Blah blah. I know because I thought like this before. It’s to sell products. I never thought being single was ok for anyone. But now I see it is more than ok for many people, including the ones who want a partner extremely badly. I was like that, and nothing in the real world made sense. Now it does.
I think it's because they got rejected. Rejection hurts, some get angry. The more they want you, the bigger the blow.
Or they're one of the "modern women" hating men who dread the line "I am single, strong and independent."
Because broads are so damn hard to come by, as it is and then YOU go and take yourself COMPLETELY out of the running by choosing to get married, stay single or become a lezzie or a nun and that takes more of you out of circulation! How's a guy supposed to get laid if there's no pussy around?
Usually it's the opposite from my experience. Men will want something not serious and short term and women will complain about him not committing or asking her to marry them. I personally had to break up a friend with benefits situation because she started telling people we were in a relationship, even though I told her we were just friends.
This is why I friend zone men no expectations no consideration- I'm always open to friendship with the same sex
Well yeah, it's better to friend zone a guy than lead him on. That would be cruel. If you friend zone a guy and he still follows you around it's his own dumbass fault for chasing a girl that don't want him
I just wish people could be upfront with their intentions at the beginning so no feelings get hurt. Like when I left my friends with benefits she was shocked but I literally told her we are just friends.
I don't do friends with benefits nothing
I don't know any men who'd be upset about it... i myself believe that in today's time its better to be single for both men and women... it makes life so much easier
Agreed
I dont!
I choose to be single myself. so I dont see why I would get mad if women choose to be single, I think the dudes that do get mad over this do so because it screws their chances of wanting to be in a relationship with those specific women that choose to be single
Some men are. You'd be surprised but women are upset as well if you tell them you don't want a relationship.
I know it's crazy I wish everyone would respect everyone's decision
I dont know any man that is upset at a woman for wanting to be single, I can understand if he had asked her out and she said no thst he'd be a little irritated like what's her problem but it wouldn't last hed complain to a buddy over some beers s that would be the end of it and he move on to the next one
Me personally doesn't bother me at all its her life she can live it how she wants to
I wouldn’t say they are all like that. They are if they wanted a shot with you though. Or are trolls.
Because they know it's going to be that much more difficult to have an intimate relationship with her.
I'm not fazed in the slightest if a woman prefers to be single because she no doubt has her reasons why. Right now I'm currently single and are 8n no rush to enter a relationship either 🤷♂️
I guess because they really liked them and wanted to be with them but now they can’t because of her position on her reasoning with why she doesn’t want to be with anyone right now
Never heard of guys being upset about that. I see more butthurt boys who can't take rejection and switch from complementing & simping to being verbally abusive & yelling threats, all because she didn't say "yes"
Men try to use women being single as an insult to us all the time. You’ve had to seen that by now being on the internet
Let's be real, those guys are immature boys, because they have yet to actually mentally mature. And yes, i have seen them insulting women way too often, just because they didn't get their way.
I admire of anyone who chooses to be single. It takes a lot. I'm trying to do the same myself, but it's not easy
(I mean not finding a girlfriend is easy, but not wanting one is hard)
It’s literally the same from both ends.
I’ve seen females absolutely loose they’re minds when they find out the men they want don’t want relationships. No party is neutral.
Both women and men get upset when they find out the other is choosing to be single. It’s a automatic reaction because we have a biological need to reproduce.
Well those folks need to reproduce with each other and leave single / men women alone
