GUYS | ASK BILL & DAVE

The real reason girls are gushier than guys


 
It seems girls are much more open about their opinions of guys. If a girl likes someone, she tells him. But guys either keep it to themselves or don’t have any opinions at all. Almost every guy in my class has had a girl tell him she likes him, but very few girls have. Is my class full of shy guys?


Dave: Your class is full of normal guys. Maybe it’s the girls who have mucked things up in this case. I’m assuming your class is pretty evenly split between guys and girls. If every girl in your class has told a guy she likes him, that doesn’t leave a guy with much choice about which girl to pursue since they’ve all expressed their opinions. So what’s a guy to do? Keep his mouth shut, something that’s pretty easy for most guys.


Bill: There are two theories of male emotional development: Evolution and Creation. The Evolution Theory says guys are actually very evolved emotionally, so evolved that they take rejection much harder than girls. The Creation Theory holds that guys were created like a lump of clay, and that’s about it. Emotional thoughts just don’t occur to them. Either way, you get a species that doesn’t deal openly with feelings. Best bet is to feed them regularly, keep them in front of a sports channel or video game, and lower your expectations.

So... Why is it that every time there is an article on GL about being "one of the guys" it assumes you talk about sports? I am one of the guys, but I'm so unathletic it's comedic. I guess I just feel like there's more than one type of girl who talks to mainly guys.

I like this guy and i think he likes me too but he never talks to me because hes super shy around me. There is this other girl who likes him too and is super obvious around him. But when she flirts with him alone or with her friend he smiles and talks to her and i think she is really trying to get him and its kinda working. Do you know if he likes her and if guys talk to girls when the girls flirt with them does that mean that they like the girl? i know its confusing lol but some background info is that he stares at me all the time and my BFF says he says my name sometimes in his sentence's.

I hope this helped! <3

I'm having homecoming trouble. Everyone of my friends is either going to be gone all day leading up to the dance or is already going to someone else's house to get ready. I'm feeling left out, since there's so much pressure in our school to ' don't go with a date, just go with friends.' I don't have a date or any friends to go to the football games with or get ready beforehand. (I hear thats one of the funnest parts) I got a few pity invites, but they only made me feel more unwanted and awkward. What should I do to feel better and make plans?

 

 Hey girly, how do you know they are pity invites? Maybe they really want you to go! Or a delayed invite could be because they assumed you had other plans already until you mentioned otherwise. If you don't want to accept those invites, why not invite a friend to come over to your house to get ready? If there arn't any left, invite a friend that doesn't even go to your school to join you at homecoming. Or, you could invite someone who isn't going to homecoming at all and you can both have fun doing your makeup and rocking out together anyway. You could also make it a family affair. Get ready with your mom/sisters/aunts or grandmother. You can all chat, eat, listen to music, do eachother's hair and hear all about their homecomings. No matter what you decide, try to remember that the point of homecoming is just to have fun. So try not to stress or worry too much. Once you get to the dance, you'll be there with all of your friends no matter where anyone got ready.

I'm having problems with my friend. We met in seventh grade (we're in ninth now) and we became close friends really quickly. I liked him at the end of seventh, but it wasn't serious so I let it go. Then last year, in eighth grade, I started to like him again. I'm really not good with feelings and expressing them so I told him over facebook. Long story short, my timing was a couple weeks off because he said that he liked me then but didn't anymore, because I was more of a close friend. That was back in February. Since I told him our friendship's been off. We were in all of the same classes last year, but we stopped talking as much as we used to. And now we don't talk at all. He's not in any of my classes anymore, and when I try to message him , he doesn't seem very interested and never messages me first. I still like him, but it's not even about that. I'm really sad and I miss him being my friend. What should I do?

 

Hey girlie, next time you message him tell him that. Tell him that you're sorry about what happened and you want him back in your life as just a friend. You at least need to take a chance on reviving your friendship, and if it doesn't work out then at least you know you tried.

Okay so I like one of my bgfs. My friend asked him if he liked me and he said no (I'm not sure if I should believe him, he liked me last year and when people asked, he said no, which many people believed. My friends and I didn't), which he told me about it after (I had known she was going to) and said that right away he had thought that it was possible I could hear since my locker isn't that far from his. After that though...he flirted with me anytime we were hanging out! Do you think he likes me and won't really say? A lot of my friends believe he does.
Thanks! xoxo
PS: When he liked me last year, it was when I was daing someone and after we broke up I had started liking my bgf and he had gotten over it by the time it had happened.

 

Hey sasahstar123, mhmm I guess he does like you. If I liked someone I wouldn't admit it either, especially not to one of their friends. Flirt back and let him know the feeling is mutual. Get ya man girl! Xoxo
