I'm thinking of how to word it. If a woman has a guy pal and he's her "yes man"... You know, the guy who's always there waiting in the wings. Always complimenting her and giving up everything for her and telling her she's basically right and always supporting her actions, no matter how absurd.....

 

 

Not that I have this situation, I've just seen it and wondering how this happens.... How it starts. Or are some guys just this way?

I call them "orbiters", and yes, I've seen them.

 

Holding on for a shot with a woman while she uses him like a rented mule. :rolleyes:

How come I have never encountered this kind of guys?

 

almost all guys will disappear the minute they know I am not interested? maybe I am not attractive enough?

It's called being friends. ****, help a woman out and support her point of view! Must be trying to get in her pants. Never mind whether she does the same for you and you know each others friends and secrets, it's just about trying to get laid. :rolleyes:

I'm sure it's not the case about whether you're attractive enough, I'm sure you are, loveflower. Maybe you're firm and upfront about not being interested....Because I can only guess some women play games to string these guys along. I've just noticed some women seem to have a stockpile (:lmao:) of guys they can call on anytime for almost anything...

I don't know much about this thread that you posted, but this has got to be one of the most funniest threads of the week, for me.

i have two of them like this. i'd say you're probably not flirty enough. you have to be not-interested in them romantically, but still maintain a very high level of flirting and risque-ness to your behavior that keeps them interested and hoping for that chance that'll never happen. i guess some guys (and girls) enjoy this. it really amounts to game playing, really. i'm flirting with them long after i have said no to dates or romance, but they still enjoy it, and we both get some benefits, but it ultimately goes nowhere. but they are somehow invested... they probably don't have other options at the time, i would say. you could do it, but you'd need to be flirting quite a lot even after you've turned them down, and playing games. some guys have options, the orbiters (great name someone mentioned) don't.

I call that Mr. Big from sex in the city.

I hear the term "orbiter" more often than not.

That or I've called them "remoras".
