Gentleman: Explain this "Men" thing to me
Posted : 27 Jun, 2009 07:24 AM

The Scenario:



This guy likes this girl and this girl likes this guy.

They email back and forth and talk on the phone.

After two months, they talk about meeting/visiting and airlines and dates.

SUDDENLY.........

The guy sends an email...not a phone call...but an email.

to the girl and the guy says hes tired of calling the girl and her being so far away. DUH!!! The girl and guy were always seven states away from each other on the east coast.



Explanation Needed:



Gentlemen.....I've talked to a few girlfriends and they have gone through this same scenario. They think this and they think that. I want a Man's idea and thought matter on this "Men" thing scenario.

Wonder Woman

Who know's Sweetpea -- but I got one for ya.... Went out with a guy that I knew from high school. I'm goin back 20 years.... Anyway, we go out on his dune buggy and had an ABSOLUTE BLAST -- later that day -- he drops me off at my place and said he'd call.



Honey -- talk about GONE LIKE THE WIND.....?????? Go Figure? That one threw me for a loop when I was 20 something. Guess it just wasn't meant to be.



Sometimes, ya gotta be careful what ya wish for, you just might get it!!!!

Im54... Girl...Girl....

That "sweet pea" was this guy's nick name for me!!

Anyway...my girlfriend thinks he likes me a LOT and is not sure about what to do about his feelings. Its not like hes the only one in the situation.

Maybe "reality" kicked in. Some people can handle being that far away, but for others, it's just too much. Maybe when you started talking plane tickets, dates, etc, it hit home how much would go into actually being able to see each other. I'm not in any way saying what he did was right, I'm just giving a possibility. :)

dear seleta, hey wonder woman hehe,, maybe he did start off with good intentions.. and then later realized woah this aint for him.. i mean the distance thing. when i first started online i had that happen alot.. then i learnt dont waste so much time before you meet... dont give folks time to get cold feet or play ya that way as much..meet em while that newness is still goin high.. get the meetin over with and then you can work on the more serious side of things.. but ya gotta get that meetin done asap .. that way you seperate the players from the real thing.. folks that really wanna meet.. cause a player will play you just as long as you let him or her.. so meet quickly.. sides things can be totally different in person..

if he dropped u like a fly, maybe u revealed during your talk with him a "deal-breaker," and so he couldn't go further with the relationship (if he dropped you). It only takes one to halt a person's efforts.



Or maybe he is thinking the distance will be too much for him, I couldn't answer for you. But honestly, if he's that into you, he'd make things work. A good woman, especially "thee" woman, isnt something to pass up.

The man had what is called a boundary and character problem. First red flag, the man carried on the email relationship for months and claimed to have an emotional connection. NOT! Second red flag, they didn't meet in the first few 2-3 weeks. Dumb. Never carry on by email for more than 3 weeks!
