6:59p - no wonder
I was bored and browsing Craigslist. There was an ad in the Classes section that invited men to "learn exactly how to get the girl you really want." Amongst the questions and answered in the post, there included the following:If you want her to be interested in you, then you should probably do a few things:
1) Stop calling her.
2) Start dating other women, and let her know about it.
3) Act Cocky & Funny when she calls you.
4) Play hard to get...end conversations first, don't call her back, etc.
5) Stop acting so nice and sensitive. I know that some of this stuff might sound like mind games, but you have a couple of choices: Be more interesting and become more attractive to her, or keep doing what you're doing, and keep making her run. I hope this helps.
No wonder men are such jerks!! Where in the hell are they getting this awful advice?!
I mean first of all, "Stop calling her." WTF?! If a dude stops calling me then I'll just stop calling him. Jeez louise it's not that complicated! If he liked me he would call me, right? So if he's not calling me then that means he doesn't like me. And if he doesn't like me then why the hell should I call him or care why he's not calling me?
"Start dating other women..." Oh pleease...that's an instant turn-off-move-the-hell on flag right there. I don't want to be getting into all sorts of drama over a guy. And if he's dating someone else, his mind is pre-occupied anyways so obviously he's not paying attention to me anymore :P
There was also another "answer" in the article that advised the question asker to not smother the woman with attention. OK, so maybe if he was "smothering" her with attention that is a little extreme, but I have never heard of a woman who didn't like some male attention. You know, especially on a quiet night otherwise spent alone...just sayin'
current mood:  sad
