Dating Terms That Women Don't Want to Hear

 

Written by Jennifer Nickert

Men say many things, some sexy, some sweet, some annoying, but these are the things that drive most women crazy.  I don’t mean in the good way either. 

 

The first thing that comes to mind is when men call/text/email and say, “Want to hang out.”  You may thing I am overreacting to this simple term, but I’m not.  Almost every time a man says this, it’s code for, “Let’s do some sort of activity until I can get you naked.” 

 

If it was a genuine offer to spend time together they would ask if ask us if we’d like to go to dinner, meet for a drink, or go to a movie.  More direct, less vague.  The Hang Out term also causes confusion, we never know if it’s a date or are we friends spending time together.  I never say yes to anyone asking me to “Hang Out.”

 

The next annoying term is, “Let’s cuddle,” or “I just want to cuddle with you.”  Cuddling is awesome, I love leaning up against someone special and watching a movie or talking, but most men have an entirely different definition of the word cuddle.  Cuddling to me is curling up together, holding hands, just being together in close proximity with great affection.  Men’s definition of the word seems to be: Getting as close as possible so they can make out and touch us until we get naked.

 

“I’m busy,” is another annoying thing me and my friends hear from men.  My girlfriend went on a date, she had a great time, and then her date told her he is so busy with work and kids that he really doesn’t have time to date.   2% of the time this is a truthful answer, but the other 98% of the time its lies men tell to avoid the truth.  The truth is they didn’t find us amazing enough to make time for us in their lives.  Ladies, if a guy likes you he will go without sleep or food to fit you in his life.    I get insulted the minute I hear one of my friends tell me they heard this or the couple of times I got this lame speech. 

 

The two times I got the busy life speech, it was from men I met on a dating site.  I repeat, on a dating site.  Makes me want to slap my head. 

 

No Drama.  This term appears in more personal ads than any other.  Who wants drama???  I think this is way over used by men more so than women.  I am starting to wonder if they know what it means.  Most men seem to think “drama” is anything unpleasant in life.  Get over yourself, life happens.  Life is fun, complicated, and sometimes difficult.  Putting this in your ad won’t make the drama not happen.  If a woman is prone to complicating life, whether with causing conflict by gossiping, petty arguments with friends, baby daddy situations, she isn’t going to tell you she does this.  For the record anyone prone to drama never sees that about themselves. 

 

In my opinion men are more prone to cause drama then women.  If men would be direct and tell us the hard truth over a soft lie we could all avoid a lot of conflict.  Being rejected stinks, but we cry and move on, but most men are chickens and they do the “silent treatment.”  That means they drop off the radar, no calls, no more sweet texts, no more dates, no explanations, no closure.   Or they start fibbing, “I’m just swamped with work,” “My kids are over all the time,” “I’m just too tired to go out.”  Women have Spidey senses and we know this is bull.  Personally, I just move on, but I wasn’t always this mature and from the stories from my girlfriends and men, a lot of women don’t so this.  They start to stalk to prove they aren’t crazy and they know you are full of crap.  Most of the time we are right.  So, guys, you brought it on yourself, all this drama is yours!  Man up next time, tell the truth as politely and directly as possible and avoid the hurt and drama. 

 

Lastly, the words no woman wants to hear and every man wishes he had the balls to say, “Dutch.” Yes, it’s practical, yes we get you are worried about being used as a meal ticket, but it screams insincere and cheap.  We get it, we get it, but I repeat we do not want to hear it!  Unless you have a legitimate reason for asking to go dutch, like loss of job or some other kind of hardship, be classy and spoil the lady.  We just eat salad anyways (LOL).

 

The bottom line is treat all women with honesty and respect and the world and your love life will be a better place.
