reading the signs? Body Language

Guys are weird, they always want what they can't/don't have and then once they have it, they aren't interested.
I have a male friend who is over 30 and only ever had 1 serious girlfriend. He's totally the type that loves being chased by women. All he needs is to know that someone is interested in him. Odd those men are.

In-deed......

I always think that they want what they can't have...

Don't like it when a woman doesn't "chase him", even though he knows she's interested...

Perhaps that's the answer to my friend's problem? She stopped chasing?

Anyone agree?

Oh by the way, I spoke with her today and he commented to her that he's been working like 80hrs a week, (possible) and that he thinks they should "definately" catch up for a drink very soon....

I seriously think he has commented on all of this and not before, because she gave up.

Men, like women, are all different in some way and some are really different. It's a matter of two finding what works for them. What one woman finds a nightmare may be another's dream. It's also a matter of timing - what someone is open to at a particular point in their life. This guy could be tired of being chased and having women try to pin him down. One who is holding back, who isn't desperate to be in a relationship, who actually has a life, may present a refreshing change.

Well, I would have to say that if I knew someone was interested in me and I didn't feel the same way, I would (and have) use the 'I'm super busy with work' line to try not to hurt their feelings. But I certainly would never initiate any sort of conversation above a casual hello and I most definitely would not suggest getting together.

Wow... I don't know why I posted that in this thread. It was obviously a mistake. I never even read this thread. Silly click of the mouse. I need to watch where I'm clicking.

yes exmrs that was pretty random, interesting thread though. you will have to tell us how it works out CW. i have met guys like that they are usually pretty up themselves, watch out though. when they think they have "GOT YOU" they can lose interest - men HUMPHHHH!
