She said she gave an attractive guy her phone number in the supermarket 5 days ago and was asking me why do i think he hasn't called yet? And I said because it's a Big City and it's lot of competition"


Does that sound like I'm saying she is not attractive?

WHAT???-lol It's an honest answer. If the guy looks that good he may have met someone else who was good looking and then someone else and then someone else. That's what I mean by compeition, the guy has a lotof women.

Now, most of you here at Sitcoms Online know that when it comes to women, I have no clue what's going on.

But i do know this:

They reeeeeaaaaaallly don't like to be told that there are other women out there that are smarter/cuter/better/funnier/nicer/hotter than they are!

Well that's Dating, either she accept it or spend her nights wondering why men take 5 days to call. It took an pretty women 4 days to call me and then it ended up being every 2 days once we started talking and then it was everyday. So that's how things are when yu date, have to relax and see what hapens-lol

The thing is Soloman stated this is his friend. Yet, towards the end he is saying how she REALLY is. Had he stated in the beginning post how STUCK UP she was, then my response would have been different. I thought she was a good friend seeking advice. I didn't know she was a prude.

I think what you said was perfectly fine Solomon. If you have a good relationship with a person, there's nothing wrong with laying it on the line. It's not as if you insulted her and told her she was ugly.

I know, she asked for his advice and he gave it to her. I don't find anything wrong with what he said. It's not like he said that she was unattractive or anything. She asked and he told her. Now if he would have said "Maybe he found someone better looking then you" THEN I would have had a problem with it. But he didn't say that.

I think as women we always want to hear people say that things are ok when they aren't. False hopes :lol:

Solomen, sometimes I think it is better to not be totally honest. If you know that what you are going to say may hurt someone, then sometimes a lie is better.

06-03-2006, 09:34 AM
Solomon, here's a tip for next time -

tell her that you heard the guy was gay and that he's probably too intimidated by her beauty to call her back.

...or just run away.

That wasn't a good thing to say. You should never imply that someone isn't good looking or good enough, whatever. You could have just said that some people aren't interested in going out with total strangers, which is true.

Well it looks like she should just move on because I asked her last night did he call yet and she said no-lol Sometimes Guys may just hit on a woman to see if they can get the number. She actually said that she gave her number to 3 attractive guys on Monday and none of them called yet. So I will not be accepting her calls this weekend because I'm not trying to hear-"I HATE BEING SINGLE, I NEED A NICE ATTRACTIVE GUY".

god this thread is still going on. The point is, you Solomon didn't give all the facts in the beginning post. You gave the appearance that this is a dear friend of yours and that somehow you hurt her feelings. REREAD YOUR POST. you do this all the time. As each person posts something in response to your initial post, you start throwing in different info and then a curve ball. Had you said this:

I have this female friend who is wondering why a guy hasn't called her after she gave him her number. She is the type of person who is conceited, thinks she is all that, thinks all men should want her, etc. Now, I like her, she is my friend, but she gets on my nerves by repeatedly stating how "I can't be single..." "I need a man." "I am beautiful." "I have no competition"...etc. etc. etc.

Do you see what I am saying Solomon? Little by little you give different info and with that you will get different responses. Had you GIVEN ALL THE FACTS the first time, I would have told you to just avoid the conversation altogether and if and when she brings it up once more, than lay it on the line to her. However, you made it sound like you hurt a close friend and were asking if you were outta line? If you felt like you weren't outta line, what do you care what we think????? Especially if you don't tell us THE WHOLE STORY?

Now that you put it that way, I think that he really does like her and he's trying to convince himself that he don't and that she's getting on his nerves. When in fact he really does like it, and he gets jealous when she talks about other guys, That's what he doesn't like. This reminds me of High School :lol:

When you like someone just tell them, it won't hurt to let them know how you feel. You never know they might feel the same way about you.

I don't know what to think. Each post of Solomon's, he adds some new twist to the story. Next post will be, "She is my female friend, but she is only female on the weekends...she is saving up for a sex operation."
