tigereyes12 Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 Within the context of a relatively new relationship, how likely are men to have physical relations, being touchy feely, and/or cuddly with a woman they aren't (or are only mildly) attracted to?
Isolde Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 Yeah! There was a poster that said he enjoyed making out (not sex but making out) with a girl he wasn't all that attracted to. That confused me. Where do guys draw the line? I think it's safe to say a guy won't kiss a girl he's repulsed by, but barring that how do you know if he is really attracted or not.
Author tigereyes12 Posted February 23, 2009 Author Posted February 23, 2009 I don't know either! (thus the question) The mens...they're so peculiar.
Isolde Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 I don't know either! (thus the question) The mens...they're so peculiar. Tell me about it. I do think women are more straightforward in the initial phases of dating.
collegekid491 Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 Tell me about it. I do think women are more straightforward in the initial phases of dating. LOL, thats a good one!!!! I think the mistake is making a generalization that 1 gender is worse then the other. I know girl's who do the same thing... they just generally are digging for gold!
runner Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 i'm a pretty touchy person and i enjoy being close to people, even if its a girl i just met and i'm not attracted to, but still enjoy chatting. i'm afraid it does cause me problems sometimes as for making out with a girl i'm not attracted to ... sounds like a bad joke
likestolaugh Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 Tell me about it. I do think women are more straightforward in the initial phases of dating. ROFL!!! anyway, if personality trumps physical features, then yeah, a guy will be touchy/feely. Several of my friends are like this. However from my own personal experience, I've found that I tend to hold back if this is the situation. My first thread on these forums dealt very much with this topic... I was going out with someone who wasn't amazing physically. As a result I didn't act romantically in the physical manner earlier on, which looking back, probably was what ruined the chance of a relationship. You can read it if you want to know more. Sure makes it easier to get over a girl though...
Isolde Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 What I meant when I said guys weren't straightforward, is that I feel the guys that dont like me are actually more likely to kiss me or take initiative physically.

collegekid491 Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 ah, well I guess it's because they're not worried about being hurt/scarred by rejection... ^This. I mean the thought process is simple, "I don't have a replacement", "I don't wanna break up, so go as far as I can or screw it up so they break it off", "Lets see how much I can exploit this". I know my fair share of guys who do this, but I know girls who do the same thing (Anna Nicole Smith wasn't fooling anybody!). Not that I know her, but some people just put personal selfishness above feelings/attraction.
