Waste of time trying to sift through the ones that are really interested and the ones that are just flirty.
Could be said about men too. Yet you don't know unless you try.

Don't even go there. I've said it before. Females have a significantly (READ: significantly) lower chance of getting rejected by guys than guys have of getting rejected by females. All a female has to do is wear the right clothes and turn on the sweet talk and she can pull any man in the place. Men don't have it like that unless they look like:

  • Randy Orton
  • John Morrison
  • Brett Favre
  • Tom Welling
  • Kevin Bacon
  • Johnny Depp
  • Will Smith
  • Tyson Beckford
  • Morris Chestnut
  • Brad Pitt
etc etc etc.

I started dating my ex a couple days before my birthday. He didn't care about it. I don't even know if I got a happy birthday wish from him! LOL

Not always true my friend. Many ladies are attracted to different kinds of guys. Yet I do get the "guy being rejected more so than the women". Some men don't know how to act around women. But if a guy asked me out, I hope yes I am attracted to him in some way, shape or form. And I think it takes guts to ask someone out. It is nerve racking, yet exciting all in one. I do commend the men for asking the ladies out..even if they get rejected. Bounce back and do it again.

Wow...that's kind of rude. You are beautiful and should be treated like a pretty princess. If it was my new guy's b-day and said that I will be stopping by, a card would be nice. At least.

He dumped me a couple days before my birthday last year. It's actually next weekend. I figure if I don't get dumped, it's an improvement from last year. LOL

If I had just started seeing someone right before their birthday, they'd get a card and a nice dinner from me.

True conversation:

Guy 1: "hey, she looks good. You should talk to her."
Guy 2: "nah, she's probably not interested in me."
Guy 1: "how do you know until you ask?"
Guy 2: "because she just rolled her eyes at me."

The other issue is that some females are not forthcoming about being in committed relationships until after you're into the friendship somewhat, which is annoying. I've met plenty of females where they perpetrate as if they're single - I'm talking touchy-feely, I'm talking kisses, I'm talking cuddling...then they say "I have a boyfriend". It's like...

Yes this is true we are hard to figure out. A rolling eye could mean many things. It could mean A- Oh gawd I like him too now what to do?
B- Perhaps she was rolling her eye at her friends smart arse comment.
C-In response of her boredom of being with her friend who are dull.

I would go with many misinterpretations.

And if they already had a boyfriend you ARE meeting some crappy people.

You are annoyed about being a friend first with a woman? Why? It seems to make sense.

No. When females roll their eyes out here, it's clear they are not in the least bit interested in you.

I've got no problem being friends with any females. Back when I dated though, I got really sick of being in "eternal friendland" when they would not want to be anything more than friends. I also got tired of easily befriending females who already had boyfriends. It's been years since I last dated, now I can make friends and not really care, because I don't want to be in a relationship with anyone anyway. My point though is I don't like mixed signals. If you're touching me like I described, it had better be because you want me to touch you back. Moot, since I don't date, but I'm just saying.
