Topic: Fed up with ball less men | |
---|---|
I'm tired of men who can't get up the nerve to do anything. Or men who are so indecisive that nothing happens. I met someone earlier this year for a date. I decided where we'd go. Afterward, he asked me out again, so I told him to let me know where he wanted to go. A few days later, he asked me what I wanted to do. I told him again to let me know where he wanted to go, as I wanted him to step up and make a decision this time (he refused for the first date). We picked a day to go out and he was going to let me know. Never heard from him. When I asked why the day after, he said I never told him where to meet me. Then last week, I actually got stood up. That being said, I don't think all men are like this at all. I'm just tired of the flaky ones. |

A safe bet would have been to meet for appetizers, it's almost a guarantee

Why is it that people want to meet at the coffee shop? Can we not meet at the pizza parlor? Or at Waffle House? Anyways....I'm 37....and if I ask a woman for her number, and she says it is ok to call, then call I shall. "Looks down"....I gots balls! Coffee schmoffee!! I went on a date last week for the opening of Knight and Day. We got there early and played video games for 45 minutes!! I played Ms. Pacman and Space Invaders! I kicked azzzz BTW! Buttons, my date was 25 and he called in advance to ask me out; he picked me up – already bought the tickets via Fandango; paid for everything at the movies; and opened doors – full etiquette. We went to eat after the movie – except I paid for dinner because I like to share expenses. We had sushi and sake and laughed our butts off. He even sent me a text after he dropped me off and thanked me for dinner and said he had a good time. He called the next day and asked me out for Sunday. Fun date and with a great guy – with balls – old enough to know better but still young. |

Don't worry, when we go to Europe together, I will be in control anyway, since you don't speak the language. You just sit there nice and pretty ..and you may ask questions and I might answer them, you just enjoy the show. I always said I would swoon at the guy who tells me what what to do! Yes, dear! |

Isn't that the point of dating to find someone who isn't "flaky" and you want to spend the rest of your life with? There are going to be "flaky" men and women, lay men and women, rude men and women, grotesque men and women, selfish men and women. There is also genuine men and women, respectable men and women, true gentleman and true ladies, successful men and women. Kind of the point of dating and just part of it to go through. |

If you're ok with getting stood up, that's great. For me, though, standing someone up is not part of dating. I agree with Buttons. Grow some balls and act like an adult. At least cancel plans if you can't/don't want to go out. |

Getting stood up is obviously rude and inconsiderate. I have a friend, a close friend that is a single woman. She is always, I mean repeatedly everyday complaining about how she is tired of selfish men. Her complaints get old. I tell her, since she is such a good friend, maybe she needs to work on her evaluation of men when considering who she wants to date and who not to date. She needs a friend like me to keep her straight. |

I guess for some it's easier to just ignore things, rather than be honest. |

you can only evaluate to a point till you meet them in person.. if it ever makes it to that... for me... i only evaluated before i "agreed to meet" now.. these things are happening to me right after they asked me to "meet" them not sometime after

How about this buttons...it seems like that date would ended up as a disaster with this guy or the other guy..since he was bailing out before, you might just saved yourself a headache.

i also wonder do they expect a chase that goes on for 2 months? some people have better things to do than play games.. to me these are examples of games...
|
|
|
|
also to add...guys might not even consider these games..unless they are played on them lol

im sorry but these are the only ones in the last 2 weeks..... ive had more since last sept.... ALL near my age.. that are the same way! I'm thinking dating a immature 32 yr old is the way to go at least he has some balls...pfft so discusted! I've dated 28 years olds that don't do what you described. It's not an age issue; it's an integrity and manners issue. 25 year old now 28 year old ... and age makes no difference ... I see 16- 19 years difference. so ... how about a 60 or 63 year old ... same non difference. I agree its an integrety thing ... but also think men in their 40's have been talked about for as long as I can remember ... second childhood/mid-life crisis ... total lack of responsibility issues . like menopause affecting women this affects men ... not all the same but hey ... its been talked about for so long ... its got to have some truth in it. |

I agree that the age difference can go plus or minus. I'm just rarely attracted to guys my age or older. I like dating younger guys. It's my preference. I also agree that men experience male menopause. It's a science being looked into more and more. |
