Why do women tend to cling men that dog them?

The first thing you should know is that not all women do this. Aside from that, I've found there are two major reasons why this would be the case:  \n1.  We all sometimes want what we can't have.  If someone comes along that we just can not please, we may get so consumed with the rejection that we keep trying to win that person over.\n\n2.  Perhaps more deeply rooted, this could be a problem stemming from fathers/upbringing.  If the girl had the kind of father who never made her feel she was enough or who was not present, she may seek out men who make her feel this way because it is all she has known from the first man in her life.\n\nYou can test this out.  Notice girls who don't take crap or who love being spoiled and 9 times out of 10 they either had/have great relationships with their fathers or have a very strong mother who showed them how much they are worth.

Because women have ruin it for other women . . . \n\nThese good men became dishearten because of how women treat them.

Because when they are not being "taking care of"... and I don't mean SEXUALLY only... they will look for ways to get their needs met.\n\nIt's just that simple.\n\nA content woman seldom strays.\n\nThe same is true of men... except... woman are less likely to see THEIR PART in it.

Men are "hunters", women are "nurturers".   Maybe it's just in them.  Until they're really, really, really ready to settle down with one woman and  a commitment for life - it's just hard to make that choice.  \n\nI really don't know, but I agree that more men are fearful of making a commitment than women.

Men do lots of sweet, romantic things at the beginning of a relationship to impress women, so that they will consider them as relationship material.  They know women love to be treated as special.  The things they do (cooking lovely meals, massages, buying impromptu gifts) are occassionally at much inconvenience to themselves.\n\nSo once you are already in a relationship together, many men are unable to maintain this behaviour and moreover feel there is no need to continue.  This is short-sighted , however, as it fails to consider that if he uses such behaviour to win the woman, the said woman is going to expect the treatment to continue, and may be a significant reason why she entered the r'ship in the first place.

over the centuries we have been taught that that is inappropriate behavior. we have been taught it will mark us as a "loose" woman. no wants to be called or looked at as a "ho". americans are sexually repressed and afraid of open sexuality. we have also been taught that men don't like "aggressive" women, that it is up to the man to make the first move and draw the woman out. stupid i know but that's america. not saying that women shoud just go out and exploit their sexuality, but there's nothing wrong with a little harmless flirting

Well, I guess that some men are not superficial and they appreciate having you instead of what material things that you can give them. And yeah women appreciate men in the kitcken especially if they are the ones doing the cooking for a change and not bothering in the kitcken to ask "What's for chow?" :-)

I know what you mean. When you mention a problem to a woman, they sympathize, but dont neccessarily jump into action. If you tell a man, they always have this need to act and make it better. They take it as a quest or challenge they need to accomplish. Its partly that through time, its been the mans job to act. To hunt, work, fight, find, get and protect their woman and children. Women on the otherhand have often been passive creatures. It is also partly the fact that many men are uncomfortable with or unaccustomed to dealing with emotional matters, to just talking about a problem in order to make it better and just being a shoulder to cry on rather than an arm to hold a sword. They have to act because to just listen or understand would be seen as unmanly. Its culture, its history, its instinct and sometimes its neccesity. As much as I loath giving each gender their own place, often a man needs to push a woman to act and a woman has to remind a man to slow down and think. Ying and yang. And thats all ok, as long as we can also accept those who dont fit this mold.

BC men are warriors and built for battle, our bodies are not made to be cuddled and spoiled w/ affection... instead we are built to withstand physical abuse.\n\nWhereas women are softer and need reassurance that they are protected by the man.

Men know that a small thing for them, can be a huge thing for a woman.  So they are in fact lying to protect themselves from a big argument, or fight or whatever best suits you.  Some are actually sensitive and dont want to see you upset or crying over something that looks bad but is not (in their eyes).\nThe sad thing is they are not good liars and sooner or later we find out then the fight or argument will be even bigger than they thought.

For the same reason that men like you wind up with those kind of women. It's your fault that you wound up with someone like that not every other womans fault.

It is unfair to call all men pigs. There are men who treat women like royal ladies. It is probably the way you let them treat you. If you are too liberal, chances are men will treat you as if you can take anything and everything and forget about it. Why dont you take a time out and cultivate some friendships and then maintain a respectable distance. Remember, you dignity is your own responsibility. Do not entrust it to men who have pleasant words and soft and tender touches.

you see.. Women HAVE to play hard to get whether we want to or not, because we get labeled as sluts, hoes, whores, etc. Men have the ability to be easy and sleep around and not get labeled. If men do get labeled its always meant in a good for you sense, unlike for women it means we're slutty and need to learn to keep our legs closed...\nIt's just the way human nature has stuck itself into peoples lives.. the old days do live on.....\n\nSo now do you understand why women have to play hard to get whether we really want to jump you right then and there?

They do it because they can. They get a thrill out of physical domination. They think they know better than you do about what you want and what you don't want. \n\nI don't know who this person is to you, if you have a choice to be in their presence or not, but if this behavior occurs more than you can bear, you need to avoid the person, or if you can't avoid him, get help from someone that you trust and has some influence with the perpetrator. \n\nHave courage. These types of men will respect a person demanding their feelings be know and respected or if he is not so caring, he will avoid you because you are too high maintence in his opinion. Either way your courage will get the result you desire.

It's still the game of perceived leverage(gotta have hand). We don't want to come across as too eager, weak or needy. Not all are like that though hon. However, some men do have maturity and maintain old school values, treating women with respect and not playing games.
