why would a guy "stand up" a date if they acted like they really do like her?

this has happend to me before as well. i stopped all contact with this person. i dont think you should have to put up with a guy who plays games. if someone trully likes you, they would have called. sounds like he is lying about tyring to reach you. let me just say i didnt regret once, letting that guy go. and my life has been less complicated since.

Maybe the first date wasn't all that.\nShe still can be interested in the guy but feels that there is no chemistry, so then he is now added to the friend list!

She doesn't want to get the label, "Nerd", "dork", or "geek" so she acts stupid so people won't know she's smart.  I do that all the time.  I am a smart, nice girl and it's just like that saying with guys, "nice guys finish last."  The same is true with girls.  Only the stupid, flirty, gorgeous girls have lots of dates.  Us smart, nice, average looking girls have a hard time so we act dumb hoping to get the guys to notice us.

its your attitude. are you stuck up or do you show off in front of other guys? girls hate that crap.

Sounds like you asked her the wrong way.  You probably look too needy.  Why would you want to date someone that would laugh at you anyway.  You're better off without her!

Depends on whether I like the guy or not.  YES- Maybe I like the guy and didn't want to seem too eager...  NO- Maybe I don't like the guy but didn't want to hurt his feelings.  It's the lady's choice.  Why don't you call her back again and ask her?  If she says she's not into you, move on and find another to date.  Good luck!

because they feel too vunerable. if they do like someone and admit it then they risk the chance of being turned down and feeling crappy about themself. If they dont like you, they dont want to say that either cuz it might hurt ur feelings\n\nthey are protecting thier male ego

if he did not like you, he would not make that comment. He is putting a filler out to see if you cool or are you going to shoot him down. You should reply, in a flirtatious manner to let him know you are game!

same reason as guys act strange around gals they like.

take it from me, they play that, bc they have to make sure the guy is up for anything. in other words, they want to make sure that YOU are SURE you want to be with them before they devote all their time and energy into a relationship with you. duh! guys hurt gals in so many sick and twisted and horrible ways, if you dont know. everyone is different, i know, but that's why they shy away, to make sure that's what YOU really want, so they dont jump in and scare YOU away like sum guys. its an emotion thing.!!!

It sounds to me as if he is quite shy. she should try to initiate another date and wait for his reaction. We live in the 21st century after all.

Because she likes to chill with them.  Maybe they are nice to her, maybe they are her friends.  Just because she likes you doesn't make her your property.  She can hang out with guys before, during, and after liking you because her life choices are her own, you don't get to make them for her.

what she did was totally uncalled for If the date was going OK than she was completely in the wrong. My guess was she wasn't feeling the date so she gave him a really simple out so he didn't have to get embarrassed

Girls with their "status," can't stand the fact that a guy likes "you" and not them.  They want all the attention from guys--because of their so-called "status."  In reality, they're no better than you or me, but it's just their way of thinking.

it makes us look to vulnerable, if we did ask a guy out; he can either take advantage of you; because he already knows you like him, or we have to face humiliation/rejection...i have gone up to a guy once, and made a fool out of myself, but hey, i have guts, and its no big deal...but i will give all guys props going up to girls! how can you take the pressure!!!

I think that you should walk up to them and then say hey i like you and you like me i don't see why we can't go out i mean i bet you don't even like your gf.  then if he tried to make up an exscuse slap him and say you self minded freak

Every guy out there who says they are not is lying.  That simple.  They all look at a beautiful woman and the first thing that goes through their mind is, "will she like me?"  Definition of intimidation.  Even the guys who are brave enough to go in after a few minutes, they were still intimidated for those few minutes...they just had something inside them that told them go for it anyway.\n\nI wish I had that.
