Why are girls always so busy?

[Anonymous]

For some reason it's way easier for me to get guys to hang out then I can with girls. Why is that?

Well, I second that saying "I'm busy" /sometimes/ means they're not interested, but that's not necessarily it. They could be busy, especially with another girlfriend- if that friend needs reassuring that she's "number one bestie" a lot, even tentative plans are hard to cancel and they usually keep the spot open just in case the plans could go through. Sometimes, and this is often the case for me, they just don't have "permission" enough, slaves to worry. Going out often seems much more, how do you say, inexcusable(?) than if you stay home and putter about, when you know you have a test tomorrow. Does that mean they're studying? No, but at least they can say to themselves "just another ten minutes and I'll do it" You should probably look to see if they're giving you weird vibes when you are out with them. If she's cool with you coming over as an alternative it's all good, too.

i always make time for the people I care about and adore

one of my closest friends since high school who's a girl, even she uses the busy excuse on me, and 4 months without seeing her, just screams that she doesn't give a sh*t about me. that's why I made new friends and don't talk to her anymore. she has used the dumbest excuse ever, one time I invited her somewhere and she's like 'oh I have to go shopping...' like wtf?!

dont even waste your time with those kind of people, yea it hurts and its disappointing because you remember how close you used to be and the fun you would have, but people change and show their true faces, and in the end you have to look out for yourself and have self respect.

For me, it has nothing to do with being to available. I am a busy person, I work 32 hrs a week at one job, and over nights 16 hrs a week and I'm in college full time, I can make time for a few close friends and sleep lol. But, some people are really busy and some aren't it all depends on who it is

Girls seem busy because they have other priorities. If they want to hang out they usually would if there's a good reason to. Dude, I know quite a few girls that are busy with school and work, some how they manage to hang out with me we usually let each other know our schedules and see what time best fits our time. A girl will always have time to hang out if she wants to, she will make time.

That's because they don't want to appear too available and social status matters a lot to girls. They have to have "girls night out" so they can post even more pictures to Facebook and twitter. True story bro.

Honestly, I think its just because the girl doesn't want to go out with that guy and she even doesn't care ab him enough to think about another less-obvious rejection.

Um...maybe they just don't want to hang out with you? People use the "I'm busy" as a cop out sometimes...

But girls use that excuse more than guys. do you think its true that girls want to seem like they aren't too available?

Depends on the dynamics of your relationship. If a crush asked, a girl might decline to come off as not too available, but if a platonic friend asked and she just didn't feel like hanging out with him, she may use "I'm busy," as an excuse. It's not a good idea to assume that all girls view all their guy friends as potential hook ups as for girls, it is possible to have platonic male friends.

Because the girls don't want a relationship and they think that you are going to try and f*** them or something
