Guys

Has anyone figured out the mystery of men? I was recently on the phone with a guy and he threw in the..."you wanna hang out sometime...." Seriously what does that mean?
a. I've been on vacation and truly just miss hanging out with friends.
b. I'm bored and you are not working this summer, so we could hang out.
c. I'm single, you're single...so let's hang out.
d. I want to ask you out on a date, but I don't know you that well...so let's hang out as friends first so I can get to know you.
e. I'm getting closer to 30 and realize I'm single and I need to settle down with a wife.
f. When can we get married?

Okay this is a little over kill...but seriously guys are confusing. They send mixed signals.

For example...I was hanging out with a guy a LOT about 6 months ago. We were together almost every Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday. He called me on the other days and we talked for hours. We did things together, for example we went to the park and walked and talked. I've been to his house many time and have even gotten to know his family. But recently I've seen him and he is distant. He doesn't call as much and we don't hang out because he is working so much. But, he always makes promises, "I want to hang out. I'll call you." Really now...come on. Do you really want to hang out or are you just a player and want to keep me in your loop 'in case.' Do you really not want to be friends, but are afraid to drop me or tell me the truth?

I would rather guys just be honest. At least I would have to wonder and I would spend a lot less time (obsessing)thinking/wondering and more time living my life.

So, how do you know when you have met "The ONE"????? Some people say they know right away. But with many of my friends one of the parties involved was in LOVE long before the other knew they existed. What is you know he's the one, but he doesn't. When is the right time to tell him? If it is too early, you will scare him off....but if you wait, you will lose him.

I hate being single. I don't even want to do the "dating" thing. I would rather skip to married and live happily ever after. Dating is a hard game to play, your emotions are on the line and there is a point where you have to live in limbo because you don't know how the other person feels.

Guys are soooooo confusing. Any advice??

  • Michelle, I could easily write the same article about girls. The confusion really goes both ways. I don't think I'm allowed to give advice because I'm still single. Right now I'm trying to follow these rules. 1.) Be yourself. No matter how much you like the other person, if they can't like you for who you are, then why bother being in a relationship with them? 2.) Be open, honest, and communicative, and work to make them know that they can be the same with you. After that, I have no clue. Lemme know if you figure anything out :) ~~Steve
