Sick of screening

When a woman blatantly ignores you and blows you off repeatedly, isn't this reason enough to stop calling her? Or would you think "boy, I bet you if I jump on a ferry to go see her, and phone her repeatedly from the ferry, she'll be thrilled to hear from me"?

In the past, it has been women who have suffered from labels such as "clingy" or "desperate" But the latest craze seems to be none other than that of "men who come on way too strong".

Since I've been old enough to date, I have been bombarded with phone calls, emails, the ever dreaded "drop-by" etc. Let me just put this out there. It is NEVER alright to phone a woman twenty times a day (no exaggeration needed). If she misses that many calls, SHE DOESN'T WANT TO TALK TO YOU!"

When did it become okay to make the person you want feel clausterphobic and creeped out? How did men get the idea that this type of behavior is acceptable? The same type of behavior that men themselves hate when done to them? And are there any women out there that actually like this type of overbearing attention?

"When did it become okay to make the person you want feel clausterphobic and creeped out? How did men get the idea that this type of behavior is acceptable"? When women stopped wanting men to act like men, and our culture confirmed this desire with the acceptability of men acting like boys, and then when men started confusing their gender-roles in some kind of metrosexual role of androgyny. That is when.

Re: Sick of screening

thats kinda hard because it still goes both ways. i've known woman to do the same thing. as far as the whoel callign and showing up . it might have to do with the variety of women out there and what they want some prefer to be chased others dont. weather your a man or a woman you cant AUTOMATICALLY KNOW what is what.
maybe he would stop calling if you told him to stop. if he kept callign then yes stalker material but as is. He lol prolly just wants to get laid.

I know you are just offering your opinion. I also know that most of your opinions happen to agree with mine. But that would explain why we never did really get along right?

I appreciate the fact that you still make an effort to let me know you care, or are checking in or whatever, so thank you.
