IVE BEEN MIA - Page 18

The OP said that she had had a few dates with this man over the past couple of months. She said that something happened over the Memorial Day weekend That was May 26-27. On June 1 about 5 days later she is upset because he hasn't called her. She is asking how does she get over this man. First of all 5 days without a phone call is hardly a reason to go into mourning over a failed relationship. Secondly There is no reason why the OP cannot text him and just say Hi, How are you doing. If he does not respond she has her answer. This is not the 1950's where women sit by the phone hoping and praying for a man to call her.

And lastly the OP has posted 3 times since 02/23 about being ghosted by a man. I don't know if she ever clarified if this is the same person or different men. If it is the same man all three times then she needs to ask her self why she keeps hoping for a committed relationship with someone who obviously doesn't want one. If there are 3 different men then that's a different problem.

@50Mickey Hi, I think she got her answer when he did not call.

An interested potential partner is not interested after 5 days of no communication.

A woman after 60 years of age (no pain against the OP intended) but she should know the difference. Become the high value woman you should be and let him go.

Has anyone ever tried to chase a parked car? Well.......guess what happens?? Just think about it for awhile....

I agree with you completely @SportyShorty07

but some "rules" never change. It's the difference between a man and a woman.

He knows where you are @Luvsmyfam and if he wants you he will hunt you down like a jet pilot on steroids and they don't give up. That's how men are wired and will never change.

He's not the only man in this large universe unless you want him to be. I find it best to work on myself when things go wrong and move on.

@Pink123 Great points! I think that men should be pursuing women, planning dates and keeping lines of communication open. If a man ghosts me, its his loss and I don't take it too personally now. Relationship breakups are a gift in disguise- I get to think of what I want in the next man and learn more about myself in the process of working through the feelings of a breakup. I get into what I call "revenge hot" mode after breakups and ramp up the self care and workouts even more.

This is the 21st century. Women do not have to sit and wait for a man to call. If she wants to know what happened to the relationship she can call him. Where was it written that the man is in charge of a relationship and the little woman sits by the phone waiting on him to call? This went out probably 50 years ago.

I disagree.... it's in the DNA and always will be. They are hunter's if they want you. If not? so be it. I think my mother taught me well as some things do not change. Be feminine.

Poor women today at 40 still not married and no children. And things are drying up, cant have kids. Quite sad in my opinion, just saying.

Are you saying this tongue in cheek?

@Pink123 "Be feminine" sounds like advice mothers gave their daughters back in the 1950's.

How about be strong, be brave, be happy, etc. etc.?

Perhaps some women in their 40's choose to be unmarried and/or childless. No reason to be sad for them at all.

Let us all move into 2024.

In all due respect women are not dried up at 40. Not all women want to be married and have children. What I find sad is that you believe that women should be hunted down and claimed by a man. This has nothing to do with DNA. Decent men do not treat women like property and intelligent women do not fall for this nonsense. It has been said before we left this thinking behind in the 60's when women decided that they would no longer be treated like the weaker sex. Mature relationships between men and women are not based on this cave man mentality.
