A lot of times people say one thing and leave it up to the other person to decode with their actions.
I had a conversation with a gf who said she wonders why it has to be a struggle to make a guy understand that if you say you want to be in a relationship that certain things are required, one of which is spending time together.
She says she was accused of wanting him around her all the time. She adamantly says this is not true. She just felt that it was necessary for them to see each other at least two times a week.
But before long, she said she had to give up on pursuing the relationship that she’s been involved in for five years because he is no longer putting in any effort.
What the fudge happens in relationships?
Out of my circle of friends, it seems that spending quality time is a major source on contention in relationships.
Typically, he thinks she wants to smother him and she thinks that she is just nurturing the relationship -- enjoying each other’s company.
It has always been interesting to me how men think one thing when women mean something else.
Honestly, I think that my gf's guy, and I really like him, just didn't want the relationship anymore and was looking for an out. Period.
To me, a major sign of a relationship going down hill in a hurry is when one party wants to be with the other and the other wants to be in the bar, at the club, at the game, at work, doing anything besides being together.
This is a lack of commitment to the relationship which is one of the Top 10 reasons for divorce, and I think it likely ranks high in break ups.
Any who.
Honesty is a great quality in a person. I can't stand a liar, especially a himmin and hawin liar. At least practice, danggone.
And ummm, the best lies are short and sweet.
But a recent study found that men lie twice as much as women. Sorry, guys I can see that.
The study said that guys lie about drinking. Well, I lie about that.
Men fib about sex and how much they have had sex. "Yea, we did the pretzel and the hucklebuck, the twirl a whirl and the porno star," he might say. LOLOLOLOL
And they lie about nothing being wrong. You know, when there's definitely something wrong and no one wants to talk about it because then there's going to be an argument.
On average, a guy lies about six times a day. Wow!
I hate that my gf has given up on her five year relationship. But it's best for her to know now than to wait to 7 or 10 years. He was lying about his intentions in the rleationship. Clearly holding on to her while likely giving his attention to someone else.
And honestly, she should have known better. Dude was making up all kind of excuses to not spend any time with her and wouldn't even call her.
Have you known that someone was lying about nothing being wrong but stayed in the relationship any way? Have you known that someone was lying about their sexscapades? How often do you lie in your relationship?
Tell me.
