I was talking to a guy friend (someone Im interested in, but feeling it out) when he said "I could never date you, you are too much of a guy" What dont females drink long necks, watch/yell/get into sports, ect.





What does this mean?? Get told this a lot. The problem is cant change without faking a different personality (which some people have suggested I do)

Yes some girls do drink long necks and get excited about sports. And some guys are looking for girls just like you.


Personally I do not drink long necks and the only sport I get excited about is F1 racing. So you would not likely be my kind of girl nor I your kind of guy.

Some guys like girls who can be one of the guys, and some guys don't.

Interesting post. I wrote recently that I thought it was a good idea for women to consider male-dominated hobbies and activities as a way to meet men; but, a couple of women wrote “the men just think I’m ‘one of the guys’.”
Perhaps it is your attitude? Could there also be something in your comportment, body language, etc., that causes men not to see you as a conquest? (I don’t mean “conquest” in a bad way, just that I am drawn to a woman or I’m not, and I can tell quick.)

I feel your pain. I am always getting the "we are to good of friends to date". Never sure if that is the nice way of saying NO or if they truly see me as a friend.

I think you can 'act' like a lady and still drink longnecks, watch/yell/get into sports, ect.

Intesting point. I do know that basd on a few male/female habit I fall into the "guy" side.


The two I know: drinking a long neck (tilte head or bottle back) and first quick glance when meeting someone (go down or up)





Maybe I do send out singles that puts men off - have also been told that I am too self assured to be single once. Need to pay more attention. Thanks

Better than the "your not the type of girl guys date, but the type they marry" (2 different guys friends have told me this one)

I agree with row.


As I've said ad nauseum, I work a man's job and am outnumbered by men at work literally 20:1. I fight Rottweilers and climb block walls. I do the job as well or better than the men around me. And I always wear makeup. Not layers of it, but always.


The guys I know like a woman who can HANG with the guys, but still retain that little bit of femininity that reminds them they arestilla woman.


May or may not be fair, but it is what it is.
