Yesterday, as I was browsing through Yahoo, I saw this really interesting article called “Why men don't call for a second date”.
I found it really interesting and funny since it is the most frequent question women tend to wonder about after the first date.
I have never been on a date so I really can't relate to this but I wanted to share it with you guys along with pictures of a romantic date setting.
Just for fun. :D
Here are some real-life reasons (these were shared by different guys) to why men do not call for a second date:
1. I wasn’t ready for a serious girlfriend
“When I first met her, I felt a hot connection with this girl I knew nothing about. During our date, I got to know her better, liked her, and could tell she was really looking for a serious boyfriend. I could sense our expectations were different. I didn’t have the energy to explain to her that I wasn’t looking for my future wife right now, so I just passed.”
— Allan, 27, Westchester, NY
He's not the commitment kind of guy. Definitely not ready to settle down.
2. She was too self-absorbed
“She gabbed with me like I was a girlfriend. I guess I made her feel comfortable, since she had no problem telling me the minutiae of her life. She seemed very focused on how she was coming across. I wasn’t feeling it.”
— Bill, 33, Bethesda, MD
We, girls, have really got to watch out for this.
We definitely don't want to come off as vain and conceited.
“Sometimes women get upset when you say it’s not working for you. The attraction we had shared initially faded pretty fast. I don’t know why. She’d probably press me for some logical reason why I asked her out in the first place if the attraction was so iffy. But attraction isn’t created by logic.”
— Chad, 34, Washington, D.C.
Hmm, basically HE'S JUST NOT THAT INTO YOU!
4. I’m keeping my options open
“I had a good time on the date, but I’m focusing more on another girl I’ve been seeing for a few weeks. Who knows, I might change my mind and call.”
— Jack, 38, San Diego, CA
Jerk, why the heck is he dating around when he obviously likes another girl?! tsktsk.
5. She was annoying
“She had this annoying habit of throwing her head back when she laughed. It was too hysterical and weird for me.”
— Josh, 29, New York, NY
*GASP* Well, this was kind of harsh.
Funny right?!
I hope you girlies somewhat enjoyed reading this. I know I did.
And I hope that it helped some of you that are going through this situation understand why he didn't call.
ALWAYS REMEMBER THOUGH THAT THERE'S PLENTY OF FISH IN THE SEA.
DON'T LOSE HOPE. YOU'LL FIND HIM ONE DAY. :D
Any thoughts?!

"She was annoying." Lol. Wow.
ReplyDeleteAh, okay- now I know what you meant ;) Yes, that Halloween themed collar is actually a really good idea. Or in that case as it's white one could use it for a ghost costume. Would be a quite stylish ghost, haha :D
