D-Lish Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Just looking to understand the concept behind this male inspired language. I have been friends with a guy for about a year- he started out wanting to date me.... but I was adamant it was only a friendship and nothing more. We became friends- he eventually found a gf.... and then we continued our friendship. One evening I met one of his friends whom I kind of liked. His friend was obviously keen and so was I... but the setting didn't give us a chance to chat much- just a lot of eye contact. Every time I see this other guy he goes out of his way to eye me and smile and I had the feeling he was interested. I asked my guy friend to set us up, but he said this other guy was a player and a jerk and that he had asked him about me and the guy wasn't interested....so I let it go. Since then, his friend has given me me the "interested vibe"....but my friend- who is in a 7 month relationship with someone else- keeps slaggin this other guy and discouraging me from talking to him. I trusted my male friend and have let it go- but another male friend- outside of our situation brought up this notion of "co$k block" and has said guys sometimes do this to one another..... Do guys do this out of ego sometimes?

Do guys do this out of ego sometimes? That and jealousy. Its a pathetic thing. I would never do that to a friend. Does the outsider understand that he is only doing that to protect you from the jerk, but do you really need your friend to protect you from the player/jerk?
Author D-Lish Posted December 20, 2007 Author Posted December 20, 2007 I guess I want to know if this other guy is a player and a jerk... which I thought to be true from my friend... or is it a cock block out of ego as another male friend is suggesting???

If he was doing it to cock block, then your friend may have feelings for you, but I see what you mean how it could be an ego thing. Tell your friend to back-off (not in those words). Tell him that you can take care of yourself with this "player" and see how he reacts afterwards.
Legend Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 1.) To interfere with someone who is getting acquainted with, conversing with, or hooking up with a member of the opposite sex 2.) A motor vehicle maneuver, usually done by insecure twenty-something males (who think that everybody wants to race them) and other ignorant people, designed to prevent someone from changing lanes in traffic 1.) At the club, Sal was was about to get Lisa's phone number, when Nathan came up cock-blocked him by asking him if he found a job yet. He made it even worse when he reminded Sal that they had to hurry up and catch the last bus home. Lisa rolled her eyes and walked away. 2.) I realized that my exit was coming up so I began to change lanes, but that ricer cock-blocked me 3.) The traffic on the highway was hell, mostly because of that soccer mom driving the minivan in the far left lane, pacing and matching speeds with the semi in the middle lane. She cock-blocked us all.

Legend Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Rice rocket cars, japanese/asian sport cars, 350 Z, Subaru's etc In the definition that D-lish is looking for, i'd go with #1

Legend Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 He's doing it because he still has a thing for you. He probably has hopes that one day you'll accept him as more than a friend. He doesn't want one of his friends getting with you cause he'll feel like a failure since you went after his friend and not him. Then the measuring game starts and he'll fight w/ that friend, downward spiral. He can deny it all he wants, but that's exactly what's going on.

That friend has a GF, so the speculation is whether he does have feelings or if its just an ego thing.
Legend Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 No i know that. I'm telling you he still has feelings for her. Generally if a guy initially wants to date the chick, then she only lets him be a friend for the time being, he'll accept that with the ultimate idea that later on down the road they could be more.
Pyro Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Well she did say that he wanted to date her back before he found a GF, so it could be that he still likes her like that or he feels that if he can't have her, then no one can, or he is being a true friend and protecting her from the guy. She knows this guy better then any of us.

I'd be willing to bet on him still having feelings for her though ... no matter how much he denies it.

Green Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 u can block my cock... and geez u never heard this b4... Ive called people cock blocks to there faces including girls screwing things up for me... and one time when I wanted to see what time it was I called a guy a clock blocker
Author D-Lish Posted December 20, 2007 Author Posted December 20, 2007 LOL! Um, I do get the feeling that this guy sort of still has feelings, even though he has found a gf and they have been together 7 months. He still flirts with me, and once when a bunch of us were out together I was having a conversation with a guy at a bar. He left to drive his friend home- then came back at closing time looking for me saying he wanted to make sure I got home safe and that no one took advantage of me when I was drunk. He has also never introduced me to his gf. Anyhow- I do get the impression his friend likes me. But my friend insists he has has asked him and the guy has said he doesn't. Since I have never had a conversation with this other guy besides "hello" and exchanging long lingering glances- it's hard to tell.
Phateless Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Your friend likes you. Face it, you guys aren't friends. He wants more.
Legend Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 then definitely the guy is still into you, and not gonna let his friend have you if he couldn't

Do guys do this out of ego sometimes? LMAO!!!! You dont know what a C*ck blocker is????!!! That's classic! A c*ck blocker is someone you know who's intentionally hating on your game and will subtly and surely try to sabotage your sexual advances to another person. Like I know this girl and her girlfriend is c*ckblocking me because she's jealous cause I'm trying to holla at her friend. She's a blatant C*ckblocker! Forget her. lol. The thing is dont worry about the intent of the C*ckblocker worry that they even attempted or tried in the first place. Alot of times people are just haters no mater how you twist it. I think your male friend likes you and he was doing you a solid by protecting you. It's not always out of male ego. Sometimes a guy can look and know a playa and if he feels you would be better with someone else, then he would do something to mess it up. You may look at like like he's pissing in your kool-aid but he's watching your back. It depends truly on the person's peception. That's all.
2sunny Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 not to hijack but- what does the term "butch it" mean?
Art_Critic Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 not to hijack but- what does the term "butch it" mean? I have never heard Butch it.. how about this From Urban Dict... Butch it up Term used to encourage a specific traditionally masculine act or more generally masculine behavior in an effeminate acting person. To someone that won't jump in a cold swimming pool, "Butch it up, girlie-pants, and jump in the frickin' water!"
Chrome Barracuda Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Yeah I dont think we say butch it up anymore. In the hood we usually say: Man the F up! Or just man up! That sounds a lot better.
Trialbyfire Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 I like the term nut-up. It's more descriptive...
Chrome Barracuda Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 LMAO!!! Nut-up sounds more like going crazy to me! lol.
Trialbyfire Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 You must admit that most men are and have nuts. Amended to address masculinity issues. nut the F-up
