SouthernT Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 He said this to me at the end of a conversation a couple of days ago. What does it mean when a guy says "I have a lot of respect for you as a woman and I would never try to hurt you" ? Do guys say that kind of stuff just as a friend or does he have interest? I'm trying not to read too much into to it, but I just didnt know how to take it. My response was "Thanks, that means alot to me, have a goodnight" (And yes this is coming from the guy that I've been talking to/friends with for the past few months)
annabelle75 Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 Not knowing what the conversation was about that led to that comment makes it hard to interpret but i'll give it a shot. 1) This is his subtle of letting you know he is not interested in pursuing anything beyond freindship with you. He's doing it in a way as to let you know that he respects you too much to string you along or use you. OR 2) This is his way of letting you know that he is interested in more than just friendship and has good intentions. He's looking for more than a casual fling or botty call. It can be taken a number of different ways. Knowing what context it was used in would help narrow down the possibilities.
Author SouthernT Posted May 18, 2007 Author Posted May 18, 2007 Friday he sent a message to a mutual friend of ours saying "Tell her she is beautiful and I was thinking about her" So Monday on instant messenger I sent him a message saying "got your message that was very sweet of you, I'm thinking about you too" He replied "That was nice...how have you been?" So we began a light playful conversation that touched lightly on intimacy. Eventually the conversation turned a little more serious when I made a statement saying "the way I see it...if a man is not interested in dating me...then in my eyes....I dont see how intimacy could happen. I never have and I cant do that without something meaningful. Thats something thats VERY special to me and it's very special for me to share myself it with a man." His response was "i know baby gal. i have just been teasing you. i would never disrespect you or your body like that. i never have or will attempt to. i have alot of respect for you as a woman and i would never try to hurt you."
Art_Critic Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 I have a lot of respect for you as a woman and I would never try to hurt you" It means he is working on getting you to drop your guard because he is going to try and get in your pants... This is what I call threeplay.. the predecessor to foreplay.. Plain and simple...
annabelle75 Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 Yea ..... I think he is trying to get in your pants. I don't know what kind of man he is, you would know better than any of us would, but that was a total line. He probably thought by your statment that he had over stepped his bounds an was trying to smoothly back track and not scare you off. But he still wants you. You should proceed based on what your level of interest is and what you would like form him. Whether he is just looking for a quick fling or is genuinely interested in more, he is defintely wanting to get in your pants. And he is trying to be as smooth as possible getting there.

This is what I call threeplay.. the predecessor to foreplay.. Plain and simple... wow...so I've been talking to this guy for 6 months now. Do guys really hang around that long if their ONLY intention is to get in a girls pants?
Art_Critic Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 wow...so I've been talking to this guy for 6 months now. Do guys really hang around that long if their ONLY intention is to get in a girls pants? Sometimes.. it is laying the groundwork I don't think his ONLY intention is to get in your pants.. but he has been laying the ground work to woo you out of your panties
fray718 Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 Hm...I personally don't like guys who tease around like that. It's kinda icky. I think best to go with honest, straigtforward guys...they are usually better in the long run I think.
