Get serious-- running down men doesn't make me or anyone else want to drop a line. It was one guy who was uncomfortable with a relationship. With you. If this is happening often, you are attracted to, or attracting, the wrong guys. Simple enough! Hey, I am a good looking guy, some success, lots to offer-- and I can't buy a freakin' email on here. That would seem to tell me that you aren't the only woman looking at the wrong guys.

MEN HONEST?

some men are honest, but they are few and far between. or they have issues with being ripped apart for being honest

Man if this thread isn't a good reason to just have friends and nothing else I don't know what is.

men r only dishonest according to women. our brains work very differently, men need sex to have intimacy ,women need intimacy to have sex. sex is one of the primary motivations for guys and the majority of us will do or say anything for it.
If this is dishonesty then ladies can get over it, the whole gender wont change

Some of us are. But on the same token, why can't women be sincere, truthful and loyal/committed?

I would have to agre. My first thought was,"hell I thought it was the women that were disonest."

hmmmmm...I am single, div...and how many md women have hit on me in the last five years? maybe 20 - 25. and how many here have been, shall we say, less than totally forthright? three or four. I bet if the truth were known, there are the same percentages of both sexes who have difficulty in distinguishing between fact and fiction. It is sad but true that honesty and honor are fast being lost in a large proportion of the population.

furthermore, ladies want honesty...but only on certain topics which they determine....."Honey, how does this dress look on me?"......"makes you look like you have a fat butt and are about 8 months pregnant"....yup...they want honesty.....

there are many dishonest men, however the same can be said for women! So the real question should be why cant people be honest!

I will agree with women on one issue here....most men would tell a women nearly anything to get some....

I must put in my two cents here so sorry if I piss anyone off (no I'm not). Not ALL men are liars and pigs, YOU are just meeting the wrong men. Also, you started this topic and it is basically a slam on men and to me, that is pretty sad.

Now let us not forget about the WOMEN who are LIARS. I'm sorry but there are just as many idiot women as idiot men. As I've said in more than enough posts on this site, it is a HUMAN trait to be a jack ass not a gender trait.

I promise you that someone will say I'm full of crap but OH WELL. Maybe if you quit trashing men all the time, one of the "good ones" will come around.

Ok, let the trashing of me begin.

Are we really still wondering about dishonest men?

Hi mry...I noticed that as soon as guys started to respond...the women all hauled ***....lol...what I said about ladies only wanting to hear the truth about select subjects

well I'm always honest, a little too much as a matter of fact, I'm kind of blunt and I expect it from others as a matter of fact it used to piss me off when my ex never would talk to me, I know now she would tell anyone and everyone what they wanted to hear which makes me made beyond belief.
My point is that I don't know why people have to beat around the bush and I wish people would just come out and say what they want without fear of "hurting peoples feelings"
I think that's the main point why people in general don't want to be honest, that and the fact that some people don't want the responsibility of taking charge of a relationship because if the relationship goes bad they don't want it to be they're fault...lol
it's all about the blame game, you know what I mean?

No I don't know what you mean. If your honest with who you are and what you want from your partner there should be no problem of lying, jelousy or cheating.

Geeze this man hater topic is still going? Dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb.

I agree with willycents on this one, selective hearing is a problem for both sexes. If someone wants a relationship really bad and the other person is not that serious about it, selective hearing is in play alot of times. People hear what they want to hear.

Men or women who tell lies to get what they want are problems no matter what though too.

i was told by a friend of mine, who is a man, that all men lie. thats just how it is and get used to it. basically cuz women dont want to know the truth. they will always lie to get what they want and why? well thats easy, because it works. women always want to think the best of the man when they are getting to know him. men dont think that way.

not all men are the same,and not everyone has alterior motives.and no one in my opinion should judge another because of one bad apple.taking chances is part of it.
