yumicecream Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 If guys are always coming up to you and trying to be your friend, does it mean that you're ugly? Link to comment
ProtestTheHero Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 With just this information, it is difficult to assert anything. Link to comment
gidget1 Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Maybe you subconciously friendzone them straight away. Or you haven't been their type. Or they aren't single/looking. You look friendly and approachable, and they want to be your friend, why is that a bad thing? I've never been in a relationship that didn't start out as "friends". Link to comment
Stuffy Nose Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 I think most likely you're giving off the wrong kind of vibe. You should consciously try to throw out hints that you're interested, if you are indeed interested. Trust me, no guy will dislike it if you flirt with him. What kind of things do you do when they come up to talk to you? Link to comment
yumicecream Posted June 25, 2009 Author Share Posted June 25, 2009 I just talk to them. I am interested in conversation when they come up to me and I flirt in a very slight way. Its very subtle though. Link to comment
NightLily Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 It might. It might also mean they are trying to be your friend because they like you but are shy. Link to comment
Stuffy Nose Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 As a general rule, slight hints don't really work with guys. Sure there are exceptions, but there's no shame in showing your interest, so why should you? You say a lot of guys approach you, so you must be attractive. I understand if you're shy, but you need to get over it or you'll rarely get what you want. Try taking small steps. Next time you're interested in a guy, try touching his arm, do all the flirty things. You don't even have to do the initiating; if you show interest, he will be more confident and do it himself.

pinkelephant Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 what do mean by friendzone?? how do you flirt? more info Link to comment
ghost69 Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 I just talk to them. I am interested in conversation when they come up to me and I flirt in a very slight way. Its very subtle though. you might think it's subtle, but i've seen your threads and i can see how you could be coming off as desperate to find someone. don't take that the wrong way either.

yumicecream Posted June 25, 2009 Author Share Posted June 25, 2009 I do flirt. Pretty blatantly. I have guys approach me but not LOOOTS of guys...and they don't approach me...if I happen to be around, they start talking to me. I flirt by being nice and making jokes and looking in their eyes. I usually just have a good conversation. On the last comment, I don't take it personally but also don't take it personally when I say I'm kind of not really interested in thoughts and opinions from utterly noncommital guys who aren't out to just use women for sex.\ Link to comment

bostonbruins24 Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 If they don't ask you out it means they are just trying to be your friend[by your definition]. Link to comment
yumicecream Posted June 25, 2009 Author Share Posted June 25, 2009 should i just ask him next time i talk to him? if he just wants to be my friend i am going to delete him b/c i'm not gonna be some inflated guy's ego fuel Link to comment
ghost69 Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 wait, this is over the internet? Link to comment
yumicecream Posted June 26, 2009 Author Share Posted June 26, 2009 no. not over the net Link to comment
ghost69 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 so, you think i'm only out to use women for sex? please answer. and you aren't looking for friends, so if guys like this end up that way/change their minds/whatever, why would you even consider anything further when your intentions aren't that?

yumicecream Posted June 26, 2009 Author Share Posted June 26, 2009 i don't know what you're asking. i don't want any more guy friends is all i'm saying. you don't know me so you don't have to worry about what i think but judging from some previous posts you've made, you have used a lot of women for sex and then bragged about the conquests online....so thats where i got my opinion from.

ghost69 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 well, based on the bold, you might be analyzing guys wrong. and i find it weird that random strangers keep coming up to you to be friends. very interesting. Link to comment

To each his own opinions. But are you in a committed relationship? Do you really want one? are you being sarcastic? I think its weird myself. Link to comment
NightLily Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Actually Ghost, you gave off the same impression to me as well. I'm not about to say it is the truth though as I really don't know you. Edit: I didn't read back far enough. I didn't get the sense you were only using women for sex. Just a bit of a womanizer. Link to comment
ghost69 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 To each his own opinions. But are you in a committed relationship? Do you really want one? are you being sarcastic? I think its weird myself. what would me being single or in a committed relationship have anything to do with anything? do i want one? if it happens it happens. i don't go out looking. no, i'm not being sarcastic, i really find it weird. i never approach a girl to 'be friends'. i only approach women i find attractive to get to know them and see if anything is there.

Good point.Men[most] don't approach women with the intention of becoming a ''friend''.I think if most women were honest they would agree that they don't randomly initiate conversations with strangers[in a public place]unless they are interested.The problem likely isn't that these guys are approaching you with the intent of becoming your friend[they likely are interested] but you are doing something while interacting with them that tells them that you are not interested,which is fine and dandy if you are not interested but the next time a guy approaches you who you are interested in, try and give him lots of encouragement ,be friendly and I am sure he will ask you out.Trust me ,the majority of men are not going to randomly approach a woman in public unless they are interested,so the next cute guy who does,it should immediately dawn on you that he is interested,so what can I do[don't blame the men ]to keep him interested and take it to the next level.

yumicecream Posted June 27, 2009 Author Share Posted June 27, 2009 I think I maay have figured it out. I'm starting to think its because those guys are actually players and they detect that I won't be "played" so they move on since I'm not easy. Link to comment
