Ok most of my mates would be male......I have 4 brothers so that might expalin that but anyway...they tend to turn tome for advice when dating......These days im nearly treated as "one of the boys" which im not impressed about frustrated rolling on the floor laughing but anyway....

I have dated few guys and from my mates i have found that most guys never actually say what they really think......they say what they think we want to hear........rather than being upfront and honest they bend the truth a little till suddenly they find themselves going along with a realtionship they didnt really want all because they didnt really say or had the balls to say what they wanted to in the first place......Sowhat do you reackon guys....do you tell little white lies or whatever you think you need to,to either keep the peace or maybe get her into bed????rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing Keep it clean now folksprofessor tongue

nina200982: True i agree with ya there but what i mean is ....lets say a lady says to you...does this dress look good.....and you say yes darling its great (which it isnt)simply becasue you dont want to sit on the couch for another 45 mins waiting for her to change again.....or do you say you know what hon its not the best....dont worry i'll craic open another beer while im waiting...it doesnt matter if we are late....

Do you know what i mean?


Yes i know exactly what you mean, and if i taught it didn't suit i would say it straight out, why let the girl go out looking silly? and they respect you more for your honesty.
I said yesterday to Ella that her other pic was better looking and done her more justise. she was thankfull for the honesty and changed it back.
Why lie?
would like to know the same question for women then,, do ye say ok then stay home and watch soccer to keep them happy when you going to your mums, or do you really mean it?

This story explains (to me) one of the many differences between men and women.

I had a girl work for me and we were good friends. One day in work she was very upset and was in floods of tears. I whisked her off for a coffee and a chat, as she used to confide in me. Anyways it turned out she was having relationship probs and they were fighting a lot. Her problem was he did not know what she wanted. I asked her if she had told him and she replied

''He should know''


frustrated frustrated frustrated frustrated laugh

Moral of the story for me.

Speak English and we would not have to lie.......

I have friends who are like that with their boyfriends/husbands. I dont think I did it myself, but sometimes you do imagine that what you want is very obvious. I have slowly learned over the years that it rarely is, so, now I tend to be very blunt in asking for what I want. It doesnt always go down very well, however it saves a lot of time and crossed wires.

Why do women talk in code? Its like they are speaking another language sometimes and expect you to decipher what they mean from very little information. Sometimes guys feel like it would be easier to solve a maths theorom confused rolling on the floor laughing

Sorry for getting off the point there. Yeah I agree though. I mean it would be so much easier sometimes if everyone said what they meant.

If you get into a situation whereby you are going out and the woman asks the man's opinion on what she's wearing..the man is thinking "well if i say it doesn't look right on her, she will get offended but if one of her friends tells her later that it doesn't look right, she will get mad at the man for just telling her what she wants to hear. Its a no-win situation frustrated laugh
