Hey Jen,
Being single (again), and with little patience for playing stupid dating games I hope you can enlighten me as to why a woman would give a guy her number when she has no intention of going out with him?
I can't speak for all women but let me clarify. I am talking about the calls after the first date. There are two schools of thought on this one. Both extreme. Once is that it is rude to tell the guy "no dice" after the first date and after you find out dental hygiene was not a priority for him growing up so she ends up not returning the calls. The other side says be honest and just tell him to f*%k off after the first date. In my opinion, since most dates are paid for by the guy, the chick does not want to be viewed as being in it only for the meal even after she has decided that she's not interested. My point is, i may give a guy my number and later change my mind if he calls, or i may give my number and go out once and then change my mind after i find out that the fit is right, or not give my number out at all. Whichever way it goes, the girl as an adult has the right to choose. How this is interpretted by the guy is a different story.
Why does he have to call her a few times with no response "to get the message"?
see above
Why doesn't she just tell the truth?
the 'truth' is not a clear black and white for men and women. when you are driving on the road with you girlfriend and she asks " are you thirsty, sweetie?"......what do you say?
do you say no i'm not and keep driving ? OR
do you read between the lines and really hear her say "I thirsty, stop the damn car and get me a drink". My point is, there is no absolute right or wrong way. Is the glass half empty or half full?
I thought women wanted honesty? (Yeah I know, just pouring it on here). Yes but there is brutally honest, cheesy honest, tackless honest, political honest, stupid honest, xxxxx honest....see what i mean?
Don't interpret this as a flame, I'm truly curious as to the working of the female mind.
