Hi Everyone! How are you doing today? My name is Evie for those who dont know me , been here for awhile and enjoy of it.

There is something that been on my mind for so long and maybe you can help to understand.. This one here is mainly for the men, however, the women can give in their two cents....

Question: Why do men say, "I Don't trust women" by yet want to date?

Is it it a polite way of saying I just want a casual relationship, or they are fooling themselves thinking another can break the "Trust" barrier?

I need some feedback, what you say folks?

Dating and trusting are two completely different issues.

If the man in question is usually pretty straight forward, I would understand it as usch. He has trust issues, but like any normal man, wants to have a relationship.

Im not one to say that myself, but maybe they are trying to provethemselves wrong to themselves and try to find the woman that won't cheat on them.

Okay, that is acceptable.

But do you think some men use the trust issue as a way not to committ? dunno

To an extent, that could be the case. For some, that could be an underlying fear not to trust. More so , if they feel that the negative aspects of their past relationship ended because of issues related to trust.

Well Evie, wave

I trust them until they give me a reason not to...my downfall women I think are a little stronger...when a man gets hurt they hurt and hold onto that hurt for a lot longer...at least that is my 2 centssigh mumbling

I understand the negativitiy reasons and etc.. but that dont answer the question , why date?

My opinion, if he is has trusting issues then he is not ready to date. Keeping barriers only make his world smaller, it will progress..dunno professor

I would have to agree with you on this. This way, the man is approaching this new relationship with a new and fresh perspective. No two man or women are the same.

Hi Evie

I hardly ever type any serious stuff here. But TRUST laughme the following is my genuine stance,

I will trust all people, regardless of gender, until they, beyond doubt, cross me.

What if some do?? Forgiveness is a virtue. Forgive, if you can. If you can't, there are another 100 million or so men out there to start all over laugh

be wellwave comfort

Ok have to comment on this one!!!!


In my case what my x-wife of twentyone years worried about the most was a trust issue....This totally did not make sense to me especially since I would not even go to lunch with my secretary alone! Come to find out the reason why she was so worried about me wasnt because of me...it was because of her and her actions...By the way we both ended up making the same mistake I am not without blame.,

Typically in my experience, the faults we find in ourselves are the ones we most worry about in others...That doesnt mean that In all cases this is true however My greatest faults r the same things I worry about in someone elses action....

Forgiveness really helps even if you are not the player...It helps by sneding the message that you have complete confidence in your self and attract those around you who r in that same class....If we believe in ourselves it is a lot eaiser to then believe in someone else....

for what it is worth.... dunno uh oh yawn
