GIRLS.  Would it bother you, if a guy you were interested in, was never in a LONG term relationsip?

Not a turn off..its attractive. It goes to show that he isn't going to jump from relationship to relationship for the sense of being in one. And when he is going to get into one, it seems as if he will commit to it. When you find the right person all fear is case out of perfect love. You'll just know, till then continue to build yourself into a better person to be a blessing for the woman you are keeping your history pages blank for. \n\nHey you should read "Wild at Heart" by John Eldridge

........what the hell does it matter!?!?!\n\nGet over him, your not even gonna ever meet him, let alone have the chance to date him etc.....

honestly, just ask her if she has one...guys ask me if i have a boyfriend all the time and i dont care at all. it lets me know hes straight up and interested.

Coming from a mans point of view, if he's really into you and respects you it won't matter. also he may be glad you are inexperienced as you wouldn't know if he was any good or not!

absolutely. Most likely he feels the same way. \n\nguys feel weird if a girl shows interest in them (believe me...you are if you realize you're showing it or not...) and they don't feel the same. He would have backed off a bit by now. \n\nI think the long distance thing is more of a problem. And you always risk hurting the friendship if you ever date and then break up. You have to weigh it for yourself....isn't the good outcome worth risking the bad outcome?

i know how you feel b/c i can never stay with the same person for a long time. the guys talk about what ever and dont care about me or what i think. if your were a nice guy who did care, i probably could get attached

Obviously, the first thing you notice about someone is their appearance. There are still a few of us guys that look beyond that though. I have dated some very good looking gals that I lost interest in due to lack of conversation. I have dated several ordinary/plain looking gals and had far better relationships with them. To some of us, what's inside means more than what's outside, but noone wants someone they aren't physically attracted to.

Yes you care but, shows weakness,insecurity, and mistrust. Its cute but gets old very fast. Its not health for any relationship.

It's the nice comfy sweatshirt thing.  You see, in moving 1/2 way across the country, he had to give up his home, the folks he casually said Hi to everyday, his favorite pizza joint, etc.  He's lonely at his new place and has decided he wants friends.  Instead of letting them develop, he wanted some already instant made.  Well, there you are.  He already knew you, etc.  \n\nI had this happen to me.  Yes, he's interested.  Yes, you can have a relationship.  However, with everything being new to him now (but him learning it later on) that there will come a time when he doesn't need so much attention ... and he may develop into the guy you knew when he was in town.\n\nI wish I could say "Go for it."  My problem with trying it out is that he really does need to stand alone for a little bit, so you aren't the sudden substitute for his lack of companionship.  It gets pretty draining and depressing being both a person's newfound companion but also his blame when he feels he needs other friends.  You don't need that.\n\nGood luck!

I agree somewhat with Katrina, that men can be intimiated by independent and strong women.  But, as a guy, I would say "put off," not exactly intimidated.  For example, I recently dated a gal who I was very attracted to, although she wasn't stunning- she just "did it" for me.  But, she spent too much time telling me about her degrees from MIT, how she worked for Steve Jobs, etc..  Relationships are about humanness to me- life's little problems, emotionality, sensuality.  I talk shop all day at work, and want something deeper in a relationship.  It just got to a point where I didn't want to hold a conversation with her, since we just couldn't connect.  I guess the point is maybe revisit the guys you like with a deeply human approach, and see how that works.  I agree with the rest of the posters-  it's hard to meet someone you like.  It's true for me, too.  I live in the middle of nowhere.

If this second guy was only after her but they never got together, whats the big deal. She obviously didnt like him then or they would have gotten together so i cant see anything stopping you from bein with him or tryin it on with him. Your not goin to hurt her...You didnt say if she's with this guy you fancied first but if she is, you've def nothing to worry bout!

could be.. you might just play the uninterested card for awhile\n\n let him make the next move.. \n\npeople get bored and aggrivated with both nagging.. or blaint flaunting \n\nhe will really think about' the chance he has or may have front of him.. if he doesn't hear from you.\n\nbut if you keep letting him know.. he probably will lose interest.. most people want something they have to earn or put some effort into.. aleast that how I am. \n\ngood luck

I'm soo old fashion when it comes to relationships. I def. think the guy should make the first move....I dont' feel as though I should be making most of the phone calls or asking him out! If a man is interested in me he would show it. \n(And yall MEN know this:)

I don't know about other guys, but I like a girl that's attentive. If she is preoccupied with the rest of the world and is easily distracted then she probably will not make a good companion or mate. I think guys notice these things because it shows discipline for the future and when a woman treats me like there is no other guy on the planet it means a lot.\nA nice smile and good heart are a plus also

Even if I'm not interested in going out with the girl, I'm still extremely complimented by her asking. Do women feel the same way... or are they generally just annoyed that someone they're not interested in is bothering them??

he either was not interested in you that way....or feels a little uncomfortable....give him time or speak to him and address it.....

nO--I think that whatever happened b-4 I came along should stay in the past--that has nothing to do with me...unles they wanted to share but  I wouldn't be asking--and what I did in the past shouldn't matter to him..a relationship should begin when 2 people meet eachother and start dating not since the person started dating.
