Firstly, do they not know the meaning of the word NO? Does NO mean YES in their vocabulary or do they just find it extremely hard to take rejection into their stride. Men will brood and moan and sulk over a rejection. They can never handle it elegantly. And once rejected, they will make it a point to spread vicious rumours about the girl involved and make her appear to be a heartless bitch.
My friend and I both came to this conclusion today and no personal incident brought me to post this topic, naturally.
Surely we cannot be overreacting. So tell me, is there a natural inclination in men to hang on like a sad, lost puppy or are they mentally incapable of understanding the language of the opposite sex?
Cat, you do realise that this is a seriously sexist thread. You should have said 'What is it about losers?'. By tarring all men with this behaviour you are displaying a militant feminist streak and implying all men are losers.
I think an apology is in order. Or I'm going to start PM'ing people with nasty rumours about you behind your back.

Hey one more thing
These things are hard to explain
For some it seems strange... to swallow
The frontier of our minds
Is the last place we find
But maybe the first place we should go
Mr. X, I'm just so unbelievably put off. I had to vent my anger somewhere. I know it may be a generalisation and I'm feeling slightly calmer now. Why would you spread vicious rumours about me?

CW behan I am agree with you and I consider myself lucky that I did not have to marry one but if I think it again, I had to marry a woman. Now let think again Hhhhmmmmmm.....
A favourite come back for guys who get rejected is “she’s obviously a lesbian” ha ha ha.
anyway, on a serious note, it does happen, Ive seen it myself. Especially amongst desis it’s far more damaging to spread rumours as being a tight-knit community word travels fast. It’s not nice and a pretty low thing to spoil someone’s reputation because you need to make yourself feel better.
actually, i was just about to post 1 possible solution, and ma fellow guppie basically said it right for me:
dearest cat, here’s a purposel - become lesbian.
this way, you will definately understand women more (and them back at ya) more than when the men r involved.
oh and frankly i dont’ blame guys to be confused.
i dont’ understand women either; they confuse me. Us females have a tendency that when we communicate , we tend to add too many words to what we want to say, and pad up the sentence with softness so that we dont’ sound that mean. by the end, the clear cut msg is totally lost for the guys.
and as for those guys who you were referring to in the beginning whom had spread malicious rumours about the girl cuz she rejected them … well, such guys are pricks anyway. u know it, and i know it. and frankly, those types of guys are very very insecure that they feel this is the only way to boost themselves up. actually, it’s the lowest of the lowest a guy can go - imo.
and so what if they, or others are talking bad about you ( and may even believe it).
ppl will always ridicule you your whole life with what u did and didn’t do; but, the trick is just not let it get to you.cuz then you’re just lettings those pricks win, haina?
