Why can’t women be direct and honest instead of flaking and ghosting?

[Anonymous]

If a woman no longer interested in you whether romantically or sexually she could just text him saying something like “This is where I draw the line, you must continue your life without me, good luck with everything” even though it may hurt the guy but at least it’s more dignifying and respectful than getting flaked and deliberately making the conversations unbalanced.

For anyone who know what flaking means here some examples:

-Take way longer than normal to reply

-Reply less frequently

-Cutting down their replies

-Lack or less emojis

-Cold replies

-Reject compliments or any positive affirmation

If you’re currently being flaked on like me or been flaked on recently I could the magic you once made her want to crawl through broken glass for you no longer works and she doesn’t respect you and she probably walk past you if you was fighting for your life. If you’re thinking of addressing her flaky behaviour don’t bother because she will pretend to act all clueless as a manipulation tactic.

I think a lot of women who flake on men tend have poor levels of self-awareness in terms getting flaked on to be dehumanising, disrespectful and some levels of emotional abuse. Men who address women who flake or ghost are shut down and told to stop being insecure, needy and obsessive by the matriarchal liberal elite and girl power brigade. It’s obvious that women flake are no longer into you but why can’t they just tell truth instead of wasting their time and energy even still talking to you?

Are these men on here REALLY saying that men don't ghost?
Because I've been ghosted many times by men! I assure you, men can be just as flaky, unreliable, and wishy-washy as women. It's not limited to one gender: rather than just speak their minds some people are just afraid to be honest for whatever reason.

I just block and delete said person and take it as a sign to move on with my life.

Traditionally women who are “too direct” are considered “masculine” and unattractive to the average schmuck… Also till the 20th century women were punished for speaking their mind… so there’s that. And now women “flake” because sometimes it’s just not worth addressing a schmuck who should know better.


Mind you, guys flake and ghost ALL THE TIME and women are Simple’s expected to put up and shut up… as we have for centuries.

Aren’t women being cold in their replies more of a masculine trait rather than feminine trait?

[DishLady]

Cold is cold. I see both guys and girls being cold. It's just nasty behavior, not particularly masculine or feminine in my opinion.

[ManInChains]

Must have something to do with being female... Because I don't think men are known to ghost or flake out on someone intentionally... I'm sure guys do do it too but not to the same extent as girls.

Men would flake on women over valid reasons like if she turns to out to be catfish or had a criminal history. Girls would flake on men over something trivial like forgetting the name of her best friend’s cousin’s sister-in-law’s sister’s goldfish.

A woman I was dealing with for professional reasons started flaking on me and when confronted she started giving me the silent treatment. How she got to an administrative position is beyond me.

[Asker]

The last woman flaked on me gave me the silent treatment and woman before that did I had the respect and dignity level to tell the truth. Flaking is emotional abused. They know what they’re doing but they seem to pretend not to.

This is the vice principal at a school I am or at least was volunteering at. She seemed really nice as I was getting started but then seemed to want nothing to do with me, arranging for me to come in when there wasn’t anything for me to do and when she wasn’t there, thus leaving the other admins wondering where to put me for the afternoon. I’ve since contacted the acting principal in hopes of making some progress, a somewhat older woman whom I hope has maturity to match. The former principal, a man who was a real class act, got transferred shortly before I could get started. This was my first school, so I can’t exactly replace it. Also, I already have quite a bit invested in this, what with getting my background checks and taking a taxi back from the cop shop, and to the school three times.

I find that women are indirect when it comes to expressing herself to do things. However, men are indirect when they express their feelings. It seems like women don't want to hurt your feeling since you are so hesitant to express your feelings. I think we need to learn from each other how to express ourselves so there is no misunderstanding. women need to show their interest in thing in front of her male friends and men need to learn to show his feelings more?

[LazerBean]

Because that's just the how people commonly show that they are losing interest. It's the norm regardless of what gender you are. It's not like there is any commitment going on, so no explanation is owed and it's not that big of a deal anyway.

[Asker]

Men never ghost women unless he’s in the 20%

[LazerBean]

Clearly you do not know many men lmao

[Asker]

Men ghosting women is like seeing a mouse chasing a cat unless the woman actually f things up proper but if man unintentionally makes a few not pick mistakes then lost her and no getting her back. Men tend to be more lenient. If you want to prove me wrong then why am I always the one getting ghosted are at the end?

[LazerBean]

Because you're probably just an annoying person, plus desperate. When men are not interested or are losing interested, they flake or ghost. It's simple. That's why men are simple and figuring out if they are interested is simple. And guys will do that to guys who are annoying too, because obviously nobody wants to talk to someone who is annoying. But not all guys are annoying or desperate, and in fact most or not. That's why it is also common for guys to flake and ghost.

Modern society with social media and human resources has made most people too weak minded to have honest face to face interactions.

I see a lot of questions on here from women asking why a guy ghosted her. Its usually because he wanted sex and wasn't getting it. Ghosting isn't limited to women. Women in general need to be more direct, though.

[BarryLiverstone]

If you want honesty then demonstrate it yourself. There is no valid reason to ask this question anonymously. Stop being hypocritical.

[Asker]

I did and I even given her the heads up to be opened and honest with her intentions

[BarryLiverstone]

No you didn’t. You are anonymous here on gag. Just ask with your username

[lorenzomichael]

Because there full of shit. Let’s remember they have fake hair color, fake eyelashes, fake nails, fake tits. Need I go on?

[Anonymous]

Because women would just leave a guy for no apparent reason, that's just how women are, women like to break a man's heart.
