Why do girls want a boyfriend but don’t want to get to know a guy they like?

[chris_987]

A lot of girls I follow really feel like a relationship is just gonna fall in there laps. They say they want a man but there literally doing nothing to get him. That always confuses me about women.

I recently told my crush i liked him. He was shocked because guys ain't used to this. It took him some days and he liked me too all along. Problem is his efforts are not as much as if he had liked me first.

So its not as in fairytales thats why wed rather wait

I guess the answer is, because you can

We are used to meet some guys and wait for them to do the next move. And when we are very direct and we are the ones askimg for a date guys get weird like wondering what is wrong with us. Guys are just not used to it.

So guys aren’t used to it. So that means you won’t do it

Simply put its "yes we want a man and If a guy happens to make a move great otherwise i have other priorities at the moment"

What could be more important than finding the right man to spend the rest of your life with? If your not serious about that but end up settling for a guy you don’t really like then hopefully you remember that you never took look for a good guy that seriously.

Well they want a man that won’t play them, not just any man.

There not even doing work to get a man regardless if he’s gonna play her or not, if you ask any girl that has a crush on a guy but He doesn’t even know she exists, “what are you planning on doing to get into a relationship with him” she is gonna say “nothing” so that my point

Nah, girls talk to each other and the answer isn’t ‘nothing’. Not sure why you’re getting that answer if it’s a common one.

They do like to test him to see how much he wants her too though. And that’s not even a bad move.

I was referring to my experience, girls will like your picture on Instagram follow you back and post subliminal messages like “I can’t wait to be someone girls friend” but do they say they like you, no. They honestly think it’s the mans job to do all the work to get you.

I’ll give you quick story. My friend told a girl about me and she was interested so guess what she did. She like my picture on Instagram and that was it. She honestly felt like she did enough to say hey I want to get to know you. Anyways that just my experience I doubt most girl will be able to relate to that.

Not all girls that post stuff like that are implying it to everyone guy - you could’ve misunderstood it as related to you when it may not have been. But yes, some are more shy than others.

That’s my point, there why but at the same time feel entitled to a boyfriend that doesn’t makes sense to me
