"Have such a hard time just being honest? Like if you've lost interest, or changed your mind about seeing someone, aren't feeling it... Why can't you just be upfront and say that? Instead of some poor excuse (literally one you've seen 7356 times before) Please explain menfolk of the forums " And women aswell. | |||

"Surely some are genuine though ? I know the majority are bullshiters but some have to be genuine ? I was meant to be going to a club tonight but can’t as I can’t get childcare . Would that be seen as an excuse ? " I'd probably be a bit cynical but would give you the benefit of the doubt | |||

"I don’t think it’s just a man thing, it’s an easy life thing. " Yes, that. We're all lazy at heart. Makes me laugh when people here say that at least they get honesty because people can see what they like. Reality is that men say what they think you want to hear. Having checked out your profile I can say you're a real hottie so no man would be in his right mind to let you down | |||

"To keep them as a back up in case first choice is out of action one day I’ve been on the wrong end of it a few times " Could be the reason. I think I've mostly been on the wrong end of the backup plan B. Even had a booty call when her plan A had to call from his wife to say his daughter was sick. | |||

"This is just a personal preference - but I would rather not know the reason. Found something else you like better than me? Cool. Don’t tell me about that. I learned a long time ago there’s no such thing as closure. Closure is me deciding that whatever happened doesn’t matter to me anymore. Again, I am not advising anyone else about what to think or feel. This is just what works for me when someone disappoints me. " Well I don't ever need to know that.... But an "I've changed my mind" would suffice. It's better than the BS people come out with. | |||

"It’s people. People are flakey. I don’t know why, I’ve had people that I’m Seriously interested in meeting and can’t get a committed answer to when or if we’ll meet AGAIN. My last verification (I don’t think she’ll mind me saying) was us both meeting because we had both been stood up. And you have to believe their excuses. I need people to be upfront with me, because I do believe peoples words, that’s because I need them to believe mine. Why do they do it? I actually think it’s to leave you as an option, because that’s online dating, people will have a list of options. *just my oppinion. " I agree with you. And to be left as an option is a horrible feeling. That’s why I can’t do it anymore. Not until I grow some really thick skin, but but not till then. | |||

I’ve got a thick enough skin (although things still bother me) to accept we are all options for people in here. But to think you are an option when you want to exclusively give your feelings to someone who you’d like to date and have a relationship with is horrible. You both have to be on the same page.

For me Fab is all about very raw emotions, because I feel like this when it comes to my body. I can’t help it because I feel it’s not a place for me. I don’t even go into dating territory so that’s a completely abstract concept to me, but you’re damn right Woody. I hope you’re going to figure out things for yourself, and I genuinely mean it. | |||
