Do women realize what they do to men when they give us The Treatment ? Is this a conscious decision? If so, do women enjoy doing it (as it seems they must)? We may never know for sure, but we can look at actual statements by actual women, in the hopes that we can glean some sort of insight into the minds of these man-destroying creatures.
So where am I? I'm talking to my pseudo-girlfriend and she
tells me that she doesn't want to go out w/me "Because she likes me too much?" Does that sound like bunches of bull to Y'all too?
I found out why the girl that broke up with me did so.
It seems that she couldn't deal with the fact that I am a man of substance. (I don't like it myself, but...)
"You're like a brother to me"...whoopee! i hate that one!

Women do not do this to be mean. It is quite the opposite, they tell you these things to protect your ego and your self esteem. They are merely saying they like you a lot or even love you, but they do not see you as a lover or a husband. You do not fit into their long term plan of marriage and eveything that goes with it. You may even mean more to them than a husband would mean to them later.
A freindship always last longer than a marriage or a relationship. So enjoy being told they cherish your friendship, it is better than saying I never want to see you again!

I dont think its the guy's ego that gets hurt.. i accept the fact that women have right to make a choice.. very well ... no one is stopping you.. the problem here is.. such choices are never made without a discussion.. and they are given as a surprise to the guy.. and when he is least expecting them.
you spend 10 hours a days 7 days a week together and never mention a word about your plans and one fine day.. you give a shock of a life to the poor guy.

Women break up with men and men break up with women, it just happen, both will have their reason, either they say it clearly or come up with some strange line it will not change a thing.. you just need to move on and forget about her.

I agree to this.. we move on.. Men move on, ofcourse just for the good of both the people.. but why the hell women keep coming back to them for support with bad marriages or other life problems..!! ?? Why..

Wow, sounds like you have had your heart broken or something. I don't usally do the "lets just be friends" thing. I just tell them straight up why I dont like them. But I think women, in general, by nature, dont like to hurt people fellings. So they probably say that to keep from saying "I dont like you. You smell bad" or "I dont like you because you are to cheap." Instead they try to suger coat it. But Im pretty honest, or maybe im just hatefull. Not sure which one but I would rather someone tell me the truth then lie to spare my fellings.

She needed "space" and told me, "I still love you. I'm just not 'in love' with you. And you are STILL my best friend."

My GF of 3 years told me she wants to go find herself and her life first. she wants to start her own business and get settled in life first.
I never said that she cant have what she wants. but i told her we can do it together and she said she wanted to do it alone.
what is she trying to do here? prove herself or anything?
