What a Man Says vs What He Actually Means When He Is Not Into You (Page 2)

[scarlett]

Great points! I hope it helps some ladies out when deciphering what a guy really means in these cases.

[Anon-ymous1]

Well the meme part with Bradley Cooper at the start is dumb because there's no distinction between "man vs. boy," but other than that, decent list I guess.

Per the last part, yeah it's true that guys will usually stop at nothing if the girl is really the girl of their dreams, but the reason that usually doesn't happen isn't because we don't want the girl of our dreams (obviously we do), but because we aren't necessarily ever going to actually meet her.

[Anon-ymous1]

I don't necessarily agree with your advice in the last part though, saying that "he doesn't deserve your time or affection" like it's *his* problem or *his* fault that he's not super attracted to her. Umm... attraction works two ways, not one. And what happens when it's actually not all his fault? What happens when it's her fault too? You haven't said anything about that.

[JimRSmith]

Good Take.

I agree with 1,2,3 and 6, not so sure about 4 and 5.

[Chanel1981]

I think you're exactly right, it's best to take what he's saying at face value!

[villageidiot]

Certainly that one can go either way. There is no shortage of insincerity in the world and some people (guys & girls) can't seem to resist playing games. In sincere people certainly bear a greater potential of hurting us.
Perhaps they don't realize how cruel that is or perhaps they do and just don't care.

Oh no you hacked the Bro bible 😜😂

Spot on 👍👍Great Take.

Women can be like this also. A guy could be considered to handsome to be single. If he is that handsome or not is a different story in itself.

[JSmuve]

Girls need to stop believing a guy will move heaven and earth to be with them. If you don't allow him to be with you then no matter how hard he tries or might want to try, its not gonna happen.

[CubsterShura]

Come on, it's obvious that a relationship happens only when you allow it. When you don't but they still force it's not a relationship, lol.

[JSmuve]

@CubsterShura exactly. And all these quotes about guys doing everything to be with a girl makes it seem like girls don't understand this or choose to ignore it.

[CubsterShura]

I can te from personal experience though, that men will do whatever it takes to get his woman, but of course he wouldn't just do it even when the woman is strictly refusing or whatever, lol. But keeping that aside every guy doing anything less would be a waste of time to stay with.

[JSmuve]

@CubsterShura one could say the same about girls. Its give and take. If a girl isn't doing anything to be with me, why should I bother?

[CubsterShura]

Did I ever say that it doesn't apply to girls? Of course, if a woman is being insincere in a relationship then she's not worth your time.

However the way you are implying it isn't the same as how I am doing it. Even in modern culture it's more common that men fall in love first and women mostly either accept or reject the men. It does have several underlying causes.

I could tell you what I mean exactly, it is getting confusing here, but I will tell you that in private chat. Not really comfortable with revealing my history in here. But I could do it in private if you want a better explanation.

[JSmuve]

@CubsterShura nah, its cool. I'm good

[CubsterShura]

Well that's nice.

[Unknownooo]

Then there are worst guys... who call you their sister but eye rape you anyway.

[MrMysteryMan]

I would say not necessarily for most of these. A lot of shit might be going on behind the scenes and the timing is just off. Also, the same can be said for women.

[Queen_Aj27]

1-3 most annoying ones but I’ve heard them before sadly enough

[Fdfhvhjb]

I don’t like the first pic. Because what about girls? Are they really that dumb that they can’t initiate? Why do we have to. A really good guy may not want to Initiate. Maybe he has more important things in his life.

[redgrapes01]

Thats prolly the most old fashioned thing about me tbh. Embarrassing but eh. I am who I am lol

[Iron_Man]

Because he'll be friend you if that, you can tell. He shouldn't be giving you false hope anyway

[englisc]

All are good except number 2 - sometimes that's just a compliment.

[135711]

These are all false. Especially this sentence: "Guys will not play mind games with you if they really are into you." It's like your a newborn baby or something.

[TheUsername27]

Yeah good advice, just let the guy do all the work and if he doesn't... well he wasn't the one for me! It's very similar to that phrase ''everything happens for a reason''.

[LegateLanius]

These are true about women.
Most of these are complete nonsense for men.

[hime889]

What does it mean when a boy asks you out but then turn around and says you're 'not his usual type' & he's not 'physically attracted'to you? But he likes you for your "personality"?

[musical_kittycat]

Thanks so much for this take! Incredibly helpful.

[luvstoned4him]

Well done and very true!
