Crazy into me, but with a full life (little needy is good...feels good - like needs ME! (*I feel special)
Does what he wants to do all the time, but still includes me - and is cool with the same from me
Be your own person, and show interest, care and affection

I know, I meant it as I glad they chose the "non clingy" type
In the beginning everyone is overzealous but It’s a lot of pressure if a guy doesn’t have much of a life outside of me. I worry if we break up he’ll have nothing.3 -

B.
Definitely B.
I dated someone like A. Drove me nuts! He had no life and no friends. I mean, that's nice he was really into me, but it was too much pressure and soooooooo annoying. I ended that and had to block him shortly after cuz he was all "what did I do? Why do nice guys always finish last?!"
🙄
This was 2.5 years ago. Since then he has had multiple girlfriends and 2 fiances. All which have moved into his house (within 1 month of dating) and then moved out when the relationship ended. 🤔
Bullet dodged.
Type A is too much like a person who can't be alone. And I don't do well with dating those types.....4 -

This has never been me. If I'm in a relationship, I've always tried to maintain a balance between time with them and personal interests. There's always sometimes where can't maintain it. But, that should be the exception and not the rule.
Up until a few months ago, I had too much going on in my life to give time to a relationship. So, I avoided them. Couldn't justify bringing someone into my life when I had no time to give, so why cause unnecessary resentment or pain?

I get your reasoning but don’t do yourself a disservice based on the assumption that someday you’ll be less busy. In my experience, that elusive someday never comes0 -

For some, or many, this holds true. In my case, I would disagree. Prior to relocating to where I'm at now, I had an exceptionally busy schedule that left little downtime. If something threw my schedule off, I had no free time to react or do at a different time. Most times, I was lucky to get four hours of sleep a night.
When I relocated, I resigned not only from my full-time job. But, also from the fire department I was a member of and the local Ski Patrol. As well as other volunteer work I did.
Where I'm at now, I am only working my full-time job. Have no plans to get involved with things as I did before. I gave up a lot of myself for years and am now content with working my job and having free time to get back into hobbies I gave up to join the fire department and ski patrol. Now that I have time, I'm much more open to the possibility of a relationship.6 -

What are some flirting techniques guys do that you enjoy?
Push pull, picking on you, overly flattering, pretending he's too busy for you, role-playing, pretending to be jealous or shy and coy... Just, a few examples 🤷🏽♂️
Pretending to be too busy for you is a flirting technique? This explains so much!
Well I never claimed to be good at it 🤷🏽♂️...
Sorry I'll have to explain further later... Got some important things to take care of 😏
Cute...really really cute 😂💕2 -

Ha
I don't "need" to be taken care of. I can take care of myself. I don't know how to do anything related to fixing a car or changing tires/oil/etc..... but I know where to go to get those things done. 🤷♀️
I will say, however, that for me personally...... a man who knows how to do things, fix things, build things, etc....
Men who are handy = sexy.
I may not "need" him to do things, but having a man who can do those things is hot.
And handy.
And appreciated.
❤😁
Preach.

Neither, I'd rather be alone.
If he's clingy it would drive me crazy, and if he doesn't have time for me why should I make time for him?

It looks to me like one of my friends got plastic surgery but I can't be sure. What is a polite way to ask her without coming across as a perv?1

Say I am thinking about getting some work done. (You could even throw in what ever you think they had done.)Do you know a good surgeon?1 -

It depends on what stage of the relationship you are in. If it’s early on the needy one because you are needy too. Later on GTFO and have a life I’m busy. 🤷🏻♀️ keep it real

Guys: are you honest when a lady doesn't look good in a dress and asks for your opinion?0

She is a good friend and we hang out sometimes Now suddenly, she is sporting DDs and that's all I can think about when we are hanging out lol. You are bound to have questions in this situation right?1 -

If one ever asked me, I would be yes. My assumption would be, they're asking cause they actually want my opinion. Not just trying to inflate their ego.1 -
Bananabeats wrote: »Guys: are you honest when a lady doesn't look good in a dress and asks for your opinion?
I'm a girl, but it sounds like the same as when a girl friend asking if her thighs/butt looks fat (in this outfit)...there may not be a "right" answer
...and yes, I lie - sometimes
To be fair, I appreciate a lot of different body types, especially different from mine

I don't lie, but I'm careful to phrase my answer as diplomatically as possible. "Those aren't the most flattering pants I've ever seen you wear but the colour/pattern/fabric/whatever is really nice... maybe if you wore them with a longer top?" or something like that.
If I ask for an opinion, I am genuinely unsure and want an honest answer.2
