Why do some men say they are going to call and don't?

frustrating 馃槧

Could try to see it as a favour. Sort of showing you early on they aren't worth the effort of worrying over.
Sunnykel7646-50, F
@UpsideOutInsideDown Good answer!
They want to get out of a awkward situation, so say something to smooth their way out.
@SW-User something like a first date that didn't go well.
SW-User
@VeronicaJane I expect a man to admit if he's not "feeling it." That's the adult, non cowardly thing to do.
@SW-User true. But maybe awkard, embarassed, or not sure how to say it. Then again, could just be a cad. 馃檮

ugh, people that do that crap. I don't keep them around for long. They're just super pleasant to your face and say whatever feels right in the moment.
Sunnykel7646-50, F
@Dionysus yeah I said NEXT
I don鈥檛 think I鈥檝e experienced that I think they usually just ask right then versus letting me know ahead of time that they鈥檙e going to call if that makes sense ? but I鈥檇 be okay with them not calling since I hate talking on the phone lol. I feel like a lot of people in general like to talk on the phone and it鈥檚 just awkward and I have nothing to say.

If I were in that situation I鈥檇 think that they鈥檙e just saying it in the moment maybe, a lot of men tend to say things in the moment and then realize that鈥檚 not what they wanna do or they鈥檙e not as interested maybe.

I wouldn't know, I don't do that
Sunnykel7646-50, F
@Groofydorkgerdo that's a good thing
SW-User
That has always really bothered me, and I see it as "a game" to make you want them. If they are worth a damn, they won't play these games and will want to call you as soon as possible.
Sunnykel7646-50, F
@SW-User I am too old for games
SW-User
@Sunnykel76 Yes, and me too. Unfortunately, many men aren't.

"You didn't answer the phone. I swear I called 15 times. I'm sure technology let you down and didn't record any of my attempts" 馃檮
Sunnykel7646-50, F
@Elegy mmmmhmmmmm ;)
@Elegy but the missed call caller id didn't have your name?
Elegy46-50
@VeronicaJane *whispers
that was my joke. ;)
Kel, get even with guys like that.

Threaten that every time they do that, you will get even by sleeping with me.

[b]THAT[/b] will teach them a lesson!
Sunnykel7646-50, F
@questionWeaver OH MY!!!

From what I've seen, there isn't one main focus reason. I think guys oftenThough among the more common reasons would include
~ maybe they're nervous, don't know what to say or do
~ maybe they said it and forgot they said that
~ maybe they don't know you really wanted a call
~ maybe they know their intentions don't match your intentions (which in case it might be nice they didn't call)
~ maybe they're in jail with bubba :P

Also I think it's become a common phrase, to I'll see you later... I'll call you... and I've heard both sexes use this and then never do while the other one secretly waits hoping to be called.
MontanamanM
Guy would have to be crazy, not to call you. I'd be like, *Flip! Speed Dial!*

Sunnykel7646-50, F
@Montanaman that's it...he must be crazy
MontanamanM
@Sunnykel76 I concur your diagnosis!馃槑

Women can't return a text to save their life even tho I know it's right in their hand.
Sunnykel7646-50, F
@abe182 don't get itv twisted 馃槉
abe18246-50, M
@Sunnykel76 the problem clearly lies on both sides 馃槈
Sunnykel7646-50, F
@abe182 oh Abe.. lol
Newandimproved61-69, M
We tend to say things we know you want to hear.

Sorry..its true.

We think we are being nice.
Sunnykel7646-50, F
@Newandimproved I believe that
Newandimproved61-69, M
@Sunnykel76 so if he hasn't made plans with you and he says that he will call...believe it when you hear the ring.
TonyPajamas22-25
I just say I will after constantly denying it. Phone cause are anxiety inducing. I hate them.
abe18246-50, M
Because they have another girl? Idk
Sunnykel7646-50, F
@abe182 perhaps hes a player
abe18246-50, M
@Sunnykel76 either he's into you or he's not or he's a dick.
Cause yo fugly
