Why You’re Getting Mixed Messages

[@TaxEvasi0n]

Mixed signals? Move on.

[@randomnameindeed]

Agreed. I have no time for women's irrationalities and drama. Either she likes me or she doesn't, if she gives mixed messages she's out.

[@frankl7370]

A woman makes it very, very easy for you if she’s genuinely interested.

[@Systemlord30]

It's obvious you haven't dated many women. This is completely untrue, some woman use the hard to get tactic, distant and cold routine to weed out weak, needy men only looking for a quick hook-ups and are looking for a man that has patience. I typically pull back and focus on myself if a woman starts playing hard to get, flaking on me because that shows I have the power, which is exactly what a many women are looking for in a man. The last thing women want to is have all the power in the relationship.

[@frankl7370]

@@Systemlord30 Don’t make assumptions, you know nothing about me, other than one comment. This makes you look like an immature person, far from being stoic or patient as you profess to be. Sure, some women do play games. They do it for many reasons. The reasons you’ve listed above, but some, also, do it for attention and their own gratification. Avoid women who make you run around in circles or play games, it’s not about being weak or strong. It’s about having boundaries, self respect, and peace in your life. This advice is not for you obviously, but it’s for anyone else who is reading who’s potentially confused.

We ignore our intuition because we no longer have to use it to survive as humans, but the sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach that you choose to ignore is always your answer. Struggling for mutual buy-in in ANY situation is your instinctive cue to walk away.

With men we are attracted to appearance generally. With women it's way more complex and different women are attracted to different things but that smooth confidence and being interesting and theres so many more variables

[@lolfirepoisonftl]

I can't remember where I read this but there are universal traits and characteristics that all women are attracted to such as confidence, being assertive, high status etc. Then like you said, there are different things that women prefer in a man depending on how she was raised, past relationships etc.Some women might value religion or culture more than others etc. It's complex like you said and you won't know until you get to know her better.

[@ryanbarker3978]

Where this gets really dangerous isn't when it occurs during the initial interaction, it's when you walk away. Women who realize they've lost your attention will generally pull moves like this to try to make you chase them. That is always a trap and can be especially difficult in friendzone situations but going back is never worth it.

[@johnfleming4272]

I have watched a lot videos trying to understand why mixed messages keep happening and this is probably the most ‘black and white’ explanation I have come across to explain this frustrating behaviour..! Joking aside, thank you, this has really helped me understand and move on.

[@bodhitreesocial]

I think human psychology is more complex than this more black and white perspective as often times we can be very interested in someone yet have psychological barriers/feats that prevent us from being honest and upfront with them so we send “mixed messages.”

[@seannoithat9999]

right, it’s more complex. There are many black and white cases, but complicated cases exist, too

[@greatgyatso5429]

Okay, accepting that: Why do you want someone who isn’t excited to interact with you? If someone is sending mixed signals, at best, they just aren’t feeling it- even though you likely look good on paper. At worst, it means you are being used for validation, attention, to make someone else jealous, or as an orbiter. Someone who sends you mixed signals is someone to avoid either because they aren’t interested, have ill intent, or they have some sort of trauma/baggage they aren’t aware of or refuse to work on.

[@jamescoffman8096]

What about the workplace? Pretty risky.

[@seannoithat9999]

well, she’s sort of interested. It doesn’t mean you’re automatically canceled. She saw something in you, but not enough yet to totally convince her to make you her only choice, so she’s waiting to see if you had more to show off. She’s having multiple guys just as good, or even ones that are better. But in case she fails to catch the bigger fish, then you’re gonna be her next choice. You are in line, just keep doing your best to impress her more, your chance might come

Yeah thars what i m figuring out now there a girl interested in me and its her rextin me first half the time and also said that she likes me and wanted us in relationship but other you find yourself always first to text and they are findind excuses to move off dates so you get the feeling that your are in a chasing battle , so i guess the one who wants u will open all doirs all yes to you no big effort required

[@HARwinsOUTagain]

I just found out about you. This video was such a damn eye opener. This is why my last dating scenario ended.

[@NeverMetTheGuy]

Keep at it bro, it never makes total sense, but it WILL make more sense... Eventually.

[@Jojo-et9pg]

To me it happened that when we were together we had an amazing time but when we were not together I often had to send first message otherwise it would go for hours without texting which made me insecure and gave me mixed messages which in this case I interpreted as black as I don’t think he was that into me...dating sucks

[@isaarunarom7830]

Only hours? I'd hope people don't think any differently whether it took 2 hours or 20 hours for me to reply. The whole point of a text message is your able to answer at your convenience. If you NEED a reply from a person you call them or KNOCK on their door. Nothing about a text message demands a reply, even when its litterly a question. It's still only a text, it's not you using your voice, its just squiggles on a screen that may have not even been turned on for hours.

[@jesussamurai8433]

Got friendzoned she still messages me daily and I can tell she is flirting a ton and sometimes even sends me suggestive pictures or sexual comments or even just nudes. Sometimes I'll post I'm at a party or with other women and she all of a sudden messages me with a witty comment or when I'm out she tries to pull information on who I am with She already rejected me made it clear we will never date or have a sexual physical hookup because I'm just a friend. Trust me I made a move I tried to hookup with her in person and she states "I want us to remain friendly I do not see us as a romantic couple physical attraction is not the same as emotional" and gave me a speech on how she wants us to be friends and does not want to ruin it. And that she has 0 interests in me as a date. In person she acts like she doesn't even send me pictures, I've seen her naked hundreds of times as we exchange photos as she states "It is just fun". I'm confused I've known this person for 5 years everytime I want to separate or mention other women she goes up a level her flirting gets more intense or she simply starts telling me about other guys trying to make me jealous. Tbh I keep getting sucked back in even when I meet other women and got dates and things to do she just sucks me right back in. At the end of the day I know what must be done but I've known this person for a long time and we even hung out when we both were seeing other people before this got weird and I'm having trouble seeing them as just a friend now.

[@ProfWho-ut5he]

A good friend, the most beautiful woman I ever met in my life (by a large margin) , put me in the friend zone. Was one of the hardest things I experienced during my life. Still, 2 years later, it is so difficult. She is by far the best resource for me to meet new women as she is a super connector, but on the other hand, it is soooo painful and depressing when I see her. I try to forget her, but it would be a terrible loss of a friend (and so many other, shared friendships). Life is cruel, so cruel.

[@jvssjvss27]

You have to leave man. Love is about freedom. Why do you put yourself in this difficult situation? You are doing no good for yourself. Do you know? Sometimes good feelings are linked to bad situations. Life is learning. I remember 9 years ago when I found my first love. I could've been her friend but after 3 years trying I had given up. You know what? It was the best decision I've ever made. You know why is your situation so sad? It's because deep down you know you're deceiving yourself. Take a leap and move on. Life is too short to lose it with impossible situations. The best point is about you showing yourself how strong you can be. Who knows? Maybe it happens again with other girls but next time it will be easier because you've already left one time. The point is take all the sacrifices necessary to seek happiness. Even if it means losing friends. Do yourself and the girls who will really like you a favor. Make room to them in your life. Don't lose your time and your opportunities.

[@ProfWho-ut5he]

@@jvssjvss27 Thank you. That is very nice of you, I appreciate your help. I understand what you are saying, it's just that I fear the loneliness resulting from cutting ties to my female friends. Finding friends at my age is so difficult.

[@NeverMetTheGuy]

Axel, you have two basic choices - Cut your losses and walk away, or deal with this emotion every time you see her forever, until she gets married and her husband doesn't want her hanging with dudes. You say it's hard to make friends at your age, yet you speak as if you're in your late twenties. People are all over the place, but you'll need to go outside of your comfort zone. Edge Point is absolutely right, and although this isn't the answer you want to hear, it's the reality you NEED to hear. It's gonna suck at first, but it always gets better over time. Also, don't answer this, if you're below 50, don't try to pretend you can't make friends. It takes effort, and it's easier for some, but much like a pair of jeans it'll improve every time.

This girl from the office started writing out of nowhere about personal stuff, then she even sent me her personal number and always pursued conversations with me. I wondered if it was just friendly or just flirting until it was really obvious that she wanted something else, so I asked her out and she pulled the card "who else is coming". Women are so complicated

[@MrMalicious5]

Women understand other women and they hate each other. Take that for what it's worth.

[@beyourself9162]

Most situations in life are not black and white. There are millions of possible reasons why someone gives mixed messages. I just go on with my life, if she was emotionally invested she will let me know one day. Always worked for me. I never chase a woman if she is displaying emotional chaos inside her. I just back off and follow my dreams…

[@jamescoffman8096]

You’re not mentioning a situation in the workplace. I currently have a situation at work where there is intrigue with a coworker. I have not really advanced the game largely because of the consequence. She really loves her job (so she says)….and I have played it safe. It bugs me that this may possibly die.

Was in a relationship for 8 years 2 years ago, now I'm totally clueless how to interact with people becuase my girlfriend and I went to work went home 7 days a week for 8 years, we didn't go to public places litterly ever. And now I keep running in to my high-school crushes from over a decade ago and the same approach anxiety I got back then immediately comes back, even thought I'm so much older I feel even less experienced becuase I couldn't do it then and I haven't practiced this whole time either, I never thought my girl and I would ever separate and never anticipated having to learn how to date.

Details: we live in two different cities now but it's not that far and all of this happened in her city, when she texts me she wants to "hang out," but rarely texts me, *BUT* she never uses her phone when I see her and even ignores phone calls from her parents.
