See...this is what peeves me... this is not ME sabotaging anything. This in my opinion is HIM sabotaging a perfectly good start. I'm so sick and tired of women who make excuses for men. I see it around me constantly. This whole 'men think differently', 'they're just boys', 'they don't think', 'Oh, maybe he got scared off because he knows you like him'. *eye roll* I am surrounded by lovely, capable and attractive women who put up with so much crap in the name of 'woops, he is just a guy, don't hate him for it', rubbish. Seriously, what is so scary about a confident women who know what she wants and who... oooh, shock horror, likes you?! What planet am I on for godssake? It is tiring no end. I've just come home from a dinner with a good girlfriend whose guy wants everything a relationship has to offer (including sex) but the official title of being her boyfriend. It brings her so much pain, but you know, he's a boy, so let's just put up with it as though we're second best and maybe he'll come round. When did this standard of treatment become okay? So she sits there trying to work out how maybe what my guy did was an 'accident' or, 'you know, was meant to be a funny thing' etc etc etc. I am not a mind reader, it is not my place to have to work out a reason for it. That is called making excuses. Grow some balls and make up for it. Period.
I'm really not sure if this is a problem experienced by location or generation, but there are sooooo many times that soooo many women I know have 'had' to put up with utter nonsense and mistreatment in the hope for a relationship. And you know what? I don't think I will even have the chance to sabatoge it or get to strike 3, because knowing the breed of men who live in my place, in my age group, he want bother calling again anyway.
