I was planning to have a nice quiet night in tonight, just watching the footy, having a couple of Krakens...

But thanks to that surly, shitbag, Brad Scott, the footy probably won't be worth watching...

So maybe I'll go on a Tinder date instead.
I wish I did that too instead of watching geelong vs adelaide yesterday

Bitch please, guys do it too.

And I don't know why, I guess it's just easier and avoids the awkward 'I'm just not that into you' conversation.
I can only go off my own experience and say that I have never intentionally led someone on or just plain ignored them.
I respect the girls who actually flat out say they're not interested.
I reckon it's more awkward having to pretend and to avoid someone.

That's great, but there are plenty of guys who do, so saying 'why do girls do this?' is a bit shit.

Sometimes when we say we're not interested we get flat out abuse in return, which is always fun :rolleyes:

Like "well **** you anyway you slut you're not hot enough to **** me around" etc.
Can't say I've ever abused a girl for telling me they weren't interested.... But I don't doubt there's men out there who get bitter at rejection.
I get bitter at being left out in the dark more than rejection.
At least with rejection you know for sure and can move on.

As above, I don't doubt that.
I just can't fathom receiving a text from someone and just plain ignoring it... maybe it's just me

I try not to get too disheartened if a girl doesn't seem interested.

Nobody likes the feeling of rejection, but I guess all it means is that whatever you're looking for is elsewhere.

And sure, getting bullshit responses like "I'm busy" is a cop out, and we'd rather girls be upfront and honest rather than screwing us around. But (and I'm aware that this is a meaningless tautology), it is what it is.

Hahaha i saw a girl publish pms from a guy who was creeping on her and that's what she received when she told him no.

It just all confuses me.
A girl can be all hot and heavy one minute, then just disappear the next.
And since I've been single and back in the game, this has been a common theme.
It just seems like I'm doing something wrong, but i don't know what that is.

To be honest, it hasn't been too common with me. It's only happened a couple of times and it's pretty much come down to obvious differences between the girl and I.

If it's a common occurrence, I'd have a look at what you're saying/how you're saying it, because based on what you've said they seem keen initially.

It could be as random as not using emoticons to convey tone through a difficult to analyse medium, or as blatantly obvious as you asking her to marry you/stick her finger in your bum.

Since I have become single it's been a common theme.
They have all been super keen at first, but then just start ignoring me.
I've had a couple be honest and say that they're aren't interested any more or what not, which is fine, but plain ignoring someone is just rude.

How long does everyone think is too long to wait for a reply from someone?

The above mentioned girl was a notorious poor texter, and regularly took a day or to reply to texts. Claims she was super busy with uni or what not.

How long is too long before the alarm bells start ringing?
