Me n a date went to the movies yesterday, Insidious is pretty damn scary, and there were 2 girls that I knew from high school that saw me and smiled. My date thinks that I 'know' those girls and she wanted to leave but we ended up staying. My question is- why is it some of you always jump to the conclusion or assume stuff about us before you get a chance to know us men?

Oh my Gosh , you are just picking the wrong girls.
Honestly, ifyou are a friendly outgoing person, then stay away from anyone who is even a little bit possesive,
My ex's all thought everyone I smiled at or talked to was someone, I had been involved with or was interested in, So what I am friendly, they have to deal with it, otherwise you have to change who you are.
So just dont worry about it and find someone who can just say Hi with you, people who are jealous and hassell you are just a pin in the butt, that you do not nee.

ha ha so bothered that we're on to y'all

be glad she doesn't wanna share u - that stuff can get a little weird

I guess it depends on the maturity of the girl. If I were in that situation; I could care less how many girls smiled at you. I have a lot of male friends; including ex-boyfriends that would smile at me or say hi. It is nothing to get upset about.

Not sure it's only women who get like that . I once dated a guy who would keep asking "Who was THAT?", in a threatening way :goes pale:. It got too much in the end. I just thought "Whatever, dude".

That is the first sign that you should run away as fast as you can. That is true for both sexes. Jealousy and possessiveness, even on the first date is a sign of immaturity and insecurity.

Humm guess it would depend if all that really happen was just a smile and hello............Most women don't get butt hurt over just that

I would say women don't get butt hurt over that

Hello Princess,

You Just made my day, you know why? because you are the most beautiful girl i have meet, nice pics,wow, i am short of words, but if we can know each other and get closer, i think i am interested in you.


I am george, sorry i made a wrong step not introducing my self first, but just happy.

Wow, you blaming it on the men, no , you ladies never play clean, you know what i am talking about

If a girl is insecure u r headed for trouble--Runnnnn

I agree with u--There r just as many woman out here who play games!! I am just not one of those!!

I don;t think it's insecure to expect your date to NOT pay attention to other females when you are together

be it on or off line. I don;t put up with it and I suppose I have my share of insecurities

like everyone does

but the reason is because I expect to be treated well and no less

if u put up with your man staking poon right in front of you

????


might as well get a sign for your chest that reads "DoorMat - Please Walk All Over Me and Listen to Me Whine When I Wake Up and Realize What's Up"

since what's up will have been all over town....

Insecure people will be insecure. It happens.

Also. TBH, I think at least some of these issues are due to our values being in flux as a society

men (and some women) are still ingrained with the values from the days when women depended on them....so a woman used to put up with infidelities, etc in return for things like status and financial security

but this is no longer true - so it creates a disharmony where men suddenly find women not willing to put with things that they used to

but it's taking our ingrained societal values much longer to catch up to the new reality


and I realize this may be oversimplified -I can only write out so much and certainly doesn't apply completely or even at all to everyone

and I'm not picking on men - I am sure women have faults also guys...plenty of them

sorry but can't agree

it's not insecure to expect your date to pay attention to you (versus other females present)

not to an extreme but overall during the course of a date

Fine but it comes off as insecure and low self esteem if a guy cannot know other women in the world before you. Just sayin...

true, I think at this point, especially by a certain age, we have to assume that our partners have had other partners and certainly have other opposite gender friends...it's how those casual run ins are handled that matters

I think the OP is pretty young - sounds like his dates reaction was age typical

or maybe the OP has given her reason to be insecure
