HansonGirl Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 Have you ever went out on a date or dates with someone who basically acted as follows (whether or not they used these exact phrases): "now don't go falling in love with me right away" or "i don't do well with clinginess" even though you either was never even given the CHANCE to be clingy or just hadn't done anything to be clingy? or you hadn't even gotten the chance to know the person so they were really preemptive on the warnings? Basically someone who is so full of him or herself that they assume that you're like already in love with them or inevitably will be? And they also basically talk about themselves the entire date and don't really ask you much about yourself. ever been out with someone like that? i'd love to hear about it. those can make some funny stories!
casey.lives Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 i have said those words on occasion.. to be FUNNNNNNY. it's called dry humour!
Author HansonGirl Posted November 28, 2015 Author Posted November 28, 2015 i have said those words on occasion.. to be FUNNNNNNY. it's called dry humour! well yes i've heard it said in a funny way but i am obviously talking about when the person means it. not in a funny way, or a dry humor way. more like in a narcissistic way.
IronZ Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 Counting the chickens before they hatch eh? Not a first date kind of thing.

Not a first date kind of thing. not me, it usually takes me a few dates to decide if i like the person. which is why this is amusing to me. the person saying those things is counting their chickens!
littlez360 Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 Myeah, sounds like he's overanalyzed what it means when girls say they want confident men... He's just being weird. It's okay to clarify that you're not really looking for anything serious, but to assume the other person is even thinking along those lines means that he's not looking at the big picture and just trying to play a role...
ExpatInItaly Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 Yes, and it didn't last long. He was too far up his own behind. 1

Myragal Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 Not really. He wouldn't get a date with me. Too many other great guys to go out with. My own experience us that if a man is really into a woman then all of his 'conditions' are forgotten.

My own experience us that if a man is really into a woman then all of his 'conditions' are forgotten. yeah but if he's saying these things before you've gotten to know each other (that's the whole point i'm trying to get across), and people like you and me would not continue to see this person, how would the guy ever know if he was really into her such that his "conditions" are forgotten.

It means he's not looking for anything serious and that's his disclaimer.
