Understanding Guys: A Primer



He says: "Woud you like to go out with me on Friday?"
He means: "Let's fuck."

He says: "I really like you. You're beautiful, intelligent, funny, sophisticated, and you're an excellent cook. I really enjoy being with you."
He means: "I just want to fuck you. Nothing more, nothing less."

He says: "I'd like to get to know you better. There's a lot more to you that I think would be fascinating to explore."
He means: "Like, in the biblical sense. Get it? Like, 'fuck'."

He says: "Let's just stay in and watch a movie tonight."
He means: "Let's just stay in and fuck."

He says: "Let's go there this weekend. It would be a great opportunity for us to spend some quality time together. Plus, there are some great places on the way that we could check out together."
He means: "Pack the lube, baby; it's friction time!"

He says: "I think I could really fall for you. You make me want to be a better person, and I've never felt this way about anyone before."
He means: "Yeeeaah.... Um, have I mentioned the fucking?"

He says: "I know you've had a rough day. Tell you what: come over, I'll make dinner, and we can spend the night cuddling."
He means: "Bring that box of condoms, 'cuz nothing says "I care for you" like some deep dicking!"

He says: "Of course I understand you. You mean the world to me."
He means: "How much longer 'til we can fuck? Like, rough estimate."

He says: "A relationship isn't what I want right now. But you're a wonderful woman for whom I have the utmost respect, and I'd really, truly, like for us to be friends."
He means: "We can still fuck, right?"

In all fairness, you omit some others:

"Would you mind shaving down there?"
"Would you give me a blow job while I drink my cold beer?"
"Let's stay in tonight so I can watch you play with yourself"

I actually know some men who don't mean that...or at least, not with me.

I guess they are anomalies, though.

Now the ex, even "I've gained 50 lbs!" didn't put HIM off his feed ;)

Throw in a little stuff about assplay and your post would be dead on.

Ah yes, "sweet" talks are the ultimate lesson in deconstruction, aren't they?

I guess that's why I prefer dirty talk. Heh.

Yes!!!! " I miss you" does mean he misses the sex. Man I wish I read this before I was dooped. To add:

"my back hurts can you give me a massage?"

"I am feeling really stressed out."

"I have been really hurt in the past and I really just need a friend right now"

Argh I also wish I read before getting that text from the ex saying "I miss you" and "a part of me still loves you".

Followed shortly by "remember that time you blew me for 2 hours on our way home from our trip".

Dickhead.

Haha - I have that Chris Rock CD.

Scary thought, when my male co-workers wander into my office "just to say hello" I guess that translates into "lock the door and let me give you dick on your desk"??

Not all men are like that...

I've come to notice that I like to be with a woman a lot of the time to share thoughts and intellect; I wouldn't even want to be with a woman who was not able to respond to me intelligently.

I'v also noticed that my friends, who aren't the smartest people I know, focus on sex all the time. They are always saying things like "I'd like to bend her over..." when they see an attractive woman walk by.

I do admit--sex is really nice, but for me, it's not constantly the goal of the relationship like it is for some other men. And when I do have sex, I have it for her, not so much for myself. Afterall, I could always just jack-off any time I wanted. For me, the act of love-making is about love, and care for each other, not necessarily about achieving my own orgasm (although sometimes it is).

So, ladies out there, if you're looking for a guy who isn't only looking for sex, look for an intelligent one.

With regards to the second sentence:
Be careful, there just might be a "BUT" lurking around in that sentence in that sentence.
