Sugarkane Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 Why don't guys change their mind? Why are guys more stubborn?
PowerOfOne Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 Well I don't know about that. I personally think that guys come around more then girls do. Typically a girl will have thought about it for weeks beforehand. So when it comes to D-day, she's checked out and there is no going back. Guys on the other hand are a little more 'here and now'. I'm going out on a limb here, even though I am a guy. Girls can be just as stubbon! It also depends on the breakup. Was it a big blow up or was it on the cards for a little while and nothing really kicked it off? A mate of mine was in a LDR and broke up with her, still not really sure why. It wasn't a big fight or anything. From all accounts she just accepted it and moved forward. He was a mess for weeks though. And I mean a mess! Anyway, a month later he called her and wanted to get back together. They've been back together since November last year. My ex ex and I had a huge fight one night and I walked out (I had good reason). I went back a few days later but she said it was over. I was pretty cut but went NC. 6 months later she came back begging but I turned her down. 3 years after that she got back in contact and again wanted to get back together. Again, I turned her down. So that's the two stories I have of dumpers coming back after NC. Of course I can name another half dozen where NC or not, the dumper didn't go back.
marqueemoon4 Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 wow, I think you have it backwards. I don't think I make many decisions in my life that are set in stone... I'm always open to reason. Seems women once they make a decision won't back off it no matter what. So frustrating.
Shatter3d Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 I seem to be in agreeance with Sugarkane..... Male dumpers seem to be very stubborn and dont seem to be phased at all by NC...out of sight out of mind kinda thing for them...
bl22 Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 I can only speak from my experience.... Im a guy...whenever Ive dumped...I have NEVER looked back, ever! Whenever I've been dumped, I've always had them come back year or 2 later hoping for a 2nd chance, so yes I have to agree with the OP.
radiodarcy Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 i'm going to have to agree with the original poster on this one - - NC seems to be more effective at bringing girls back than guys. maybe because the girls miss the attention - - i don't know. the guy that dumped me is a total attention whore but he's also incredibly stubborn. while he did make a few attempts to contact me afterward i kept my responses brief and he hasn't made any further attempts. i showered him with attention 24/7 for 2 years - - so i know he's pissed at me for cutting him off and has most likely cut me off as well. especially since he didn't get the response to his crumbs he thought he would. he'd rather cut and run than be the one cut out on...
WTRanger Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 It's all relative. If the man dumped the woman, then the man is stubborn. If the woman dumped the man, then the woman is stubborn. It's all about what side of the dump fence you are on.
