audrey_1 Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 This has probably been discussed before but... Which dating style do you respond to better? Do you prefer to know where you stand with someone, with less games, or do you prefer the enigma? Do you have less respect for a girl who is forthcoming, or do you like to wonder?
tanbark813 Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 For me, personally, the more straightforward a girl is the better.
Ebeleptik38 Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 For me, personally, the more straightforward a girl is the better. Agreed:cool:
LucreziaBorgia Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 Guys that have studied all the latest PUA materials and play games are boring on dates. I guess because I have read all of that stuff myself, it is like watching a re-run with a different actor. I prefer straightforward guys, with no games. Someone I can have great conversation with, with no awkward silences, and someone that I can have fun with. I don't like 'mental chess' on dates. Too dull and predictable.

So then, what what do you think it is personality-wise/emotionally that causes people to retreat when you play it straight, assuming they may or may not have feelings for you?
Author audrey_1 Posted March 17, 2008 Author Posted March 17, 2008 I just thought of something...if we're all in agreement being straightforward is the way to go, do you think that could be directly related to the fact that, here we are, posting on LS? Discussing and being open. That someone who MAY NOT wish to post on a site such as LS, would be more inclined to prefer the enigma?

Do you prefer to know where you stand with someone, with less games, or do you prefer the enigma? Do you have less respect for a girl who is forthcoming, or do you like to wonder? I'm a Leo. 'Nuff said! I don't like ambiguity and prefer to deal with absolutes in relationships. Above all, NO GAMES! Playing games is guaranteed to drive me away. I much prefer a direct approach and like my women strong, honest, independent and able to get right to the point.
Immortalone Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 No what it means is even though most people prefer to have some one that is straight forward they find themselves not being. Being up front and honost with people is a hard thing to do. We worry that our words might hurt or offend so we play the word game. We worry if we say how we feel then they might leave us. It is just natural to want to be treated upfront and honost but another thing to do that ourselves.

Do you mean the preference is to have someone straightforward, but you may not be able to reciprocate, even if you want to? So even if you want to tell someone you love them, you don't for fear they don't' return it? Or conversely, if you don't want to be with someone, you can't just tell them for fear of hurting their feelings? This seems kind of enigmatic, though what is revealed may not be so good:o
