If they can't take no for an answer, they are clearly only thinking of themselves and not being a good friend.

@marsbar I also have a "friend" that does this with me and it's bad because he's Married. He doesn't outright say it but he implies that he would like to sleep with me.. it's wrong.
marsbar · F
@Wallflow3r That’s a different situation & definitely wrong on his part.
He & I are both single. I’m separated, & he’s divorced.

@Lilymoon if this is the dating game, I'm voting for you guys

Because there's always that chance that someone will cave in and say yes. That's the reason for being persistent on any terms, male or female, work or play. Persistence pays off, eventually.

@Dv8rs I'm afraid of fear though. It paralyzes me with anxiety. In rehab there was this this bug-eyed guy with yellow teeth who others laughed at and he came up with the acronym for Fear: Face Everything And Recover or, he added: Fuck Everything And Run. Unfortunately, I always choose the latter.

@atlantic59 Everyone is like that, only a few of those are exceptional actors. Here's a quote from Jackson Brown that may help. "Be brave, even if you aren't, pretend to be, no one can tell the difference."

@Dv8rs great quote. Love Jackson Browne

How old are these boys in men's bodies?
A grown mature man, while it hurts, understands that no is no.

There are so many resources on how to be a woman and so few resources on how to be a man. It is a lost art that few master. There are also some socio economic and societal conditions that have humbled and indeed destroyed masculinity over the past few decades.
marsbar · F
@Muthafukajones Yes
When a man is really persistent or demanding of my attention, that’s a red flag for me. If he can’t allow me my space, especially when we don’t know each other that well, he’s asking more than I can give.

@atlantic59 Mrs. Costello. Thumbs up.
But I'm lost. Forgive me. Is there a connection between Diana Krall and the civil war battlefields of Virginia I'm missing?

They're horny and being persistent works on a lot of women.

@atlantic59 there has to be attraction and chemistry too. Lol

@Selah I'm afraid at my age the only chemistry is produced by fermentation and the ingestion of unobserved pills

Ontheroad · M
Telling some (or even many) men that you see them as nothing more than a platonic friend is not telling them no.
Why? Because they are a-holes.

@atlantic59 I can't tell if you are being sarcastic or serious
atlantic59 · 61-69, M
@marsbar oh, there's pain, don't get me started.
ReneeT · 61-69, M
Some men really do think that you don't mean what you say and that you are just playing hard to get. Just let no be no and if you want to just talk and share let that be enough
That's what men are hard-wired to do. And women are hard-wired to complain about it. 🤣
atlantic59 · 61-69, M
@FrogManSometimesLooksBothWays You certainly know yer basics
atlantic59 · 61-69, M
and sometimes....men are people, too
Dv8rs · 18-21, F
Viper · M
Because some women has hard to get and see the persistent as a sign of seriously interested.
I honestly used to ask why guys do a ton of sh!t... but then I realized guys just do things that they some how get rewaded for, in one way or another, we are rewarded for our habits and continue what worked for us in the past.
Just to be clear, in no way am I saying it's right ... just that men are simple and do what got them rewarded or saw others rewarded for doing...

Yes they'll keep flirting with you as if you were interested in something with them, it sucks
atlantic59 · 61-69, M
@SW-User and don't you hate the round about ways where it starts out as something different and then they zero in like a dragonfly doing a grid pattern on mosquitos?
Beautyineyes · 36-40
A 'hard no' contains 'hard'. testosterones will read it has 'HARD'.
atlantic59 · 61-69, M
@Beautyineyes just let me pass please as 'soft' ,I'm trying to avoid conflict..
Slade · 56-60, M
Yes. But they can yank it themselves.
I never miss a chance. But that's just me😉

Feuerstern · 51-55, M
Because sometimes no means maybe, or not right now, or actually no. 😉 So if there is a chance no means yes sometimes we have to be sure, However, some of us know it is better to just leave it alone, but then we wonder if she meant yes when she said no, and that keeps us up at night. Clearly we don't all understand what no means when a woman say no. 😁
you gonna have to cut this dude completely out. scram. outta here.

Shipwrecked · 46-50, M
I think it might be the illusion that has been put into their heads, that the "friend zone" isn't real. If they can disbelief hard enough, they will break free of it. Sometimes it's just gonna be "friends". I have female friends. No benefits, other than they are fun to hang out with and talk to.
Alternatively: (some, not all) boys are just kinda dumb sometimes/frequently. 🤷♂️

I think it’s a bit scary when they’re super persistent like that. But, I do think shows and movies often romanticize persistent behavior like that in men and I feel some women do the same and then the guy ends up killing then or something 😬😂

losthorizons · 51-55, M

djjohnson · 41-45, M
Because some guys just think that friendship between a man and a women can only mean she's interested in more. Not sure why but they can't get it out of their heads. This is the least douche-bag reason I can think of.
LoveBeingWatched · 51-55, M
No simply means NO. I've been told no many times in my life. Just move on, you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink.
he's feeling for your soft spots

iamonfire696 · 41-45, F
I don’t think you can be friends with him anymore at this point. He clearly doesn’t expect your boundaries so why are you keeping him around?
He’s just going to keep doing it so cut him out of your life, he’s no real friend.
