Guys wonder why women have trust issues and can't just 'relax' around men until they get to know them.

Could it possibly be because many men out there are like the above described? Because we're never sure if your intentions are pure, or if you're buttering us up to just have sex with us? Wondering if you think we're 'daytime pretty' or if you only take us to your 'favorite' Italian restaurant because you really like it, or you're afraid if we go anywhere else you may run into your friends and have to explain being with us.

Maybe it's because these things have happened to me, but this is why so many women are distrustful regarding dating.

It's all I chose to say.

I'm still just glad that I've never had to resort to deceit to get a woman to have sex with me.
Whatever works for you

As a man I can tell you we see some manipulation ourselves. Not that I can call bs on your thoughts though, I have known a number of men who would about say anything to get laid.

Not sure if the movie thing really qualifies though since the expectation of sex wouldn't catch many a woman by surprise and I'm thinking their answer would hinge on their desire to go there. Or not.

And as a man I will tell you being "busy" is the biggest load of crap ever lol. Barrack Obama is busy, mark zuckerberg is busy, but they still found time to take the women who would later become their wives out on real dates.

I'd say that when you have been involved dating to the point that you would be comfortable to ask them to come to your house and hang out, that would be the time. Not before.

Totally agreed. Even when I was in school full time and working full time I still happily found time to spend with peopleI liked. My friend who lives here in Boston and works in NYC Sun-Thurs still manages to carve out 2 or 3 hours to hangout with me and believe me, he could easily be too busy.

The too busy excuse is bull for the most part.

Maybe I've grown to be a prude, but I won't hang out at a guy's house to "watch a movie" until I'm ready to sleep with him. 2-3 months of dating him is comfortable for me.

No your'e not a prude. I'm right there with you. Don't worry about the labels someone might put on you. I'm good after maybe 8 dates, but it's funny, the last player (only in hindsight did I realize he was one. Kind of exciting! A real live player hehe . I learned a lot.), I was going to let him on the 4th date. He had no clue because he viewed me as a prude and just didn't like me enough to follow through for that date so I dodged a bullet there I guess.

I find it annoying that in some cases they do not follow up to take me to the movie theater. I guess they didn't really want to watch a movie with me that bad lol. When do you think it's an appropriate time to "come over and watch movie?" I usually am asked after a 4th date, but it has been mentioned on 2nd and 3rds as well.
Nothing is more annoying than a woman trying to make me spend more money than I want to. If I asked you over its because I think you are a cool female, I don't feel like driving or dressing up. Id much rather you so NO then to suggest the movies. I hate when women do that.

Depends on its going. Some dates go so well it speeds up well. And sometimes you're just not sure, which is why you may rather go to the movie in a less personal setting
