    As a girl, I've done this, too, although it wasn't in the interest of sex. It was more to validate that I was desirable and wanted. Ultimately, it was a problem of self-worth, and like Anna, I realized that it was sometimes hurtful and had to stop.

    This isn't a guy only thing. I've been breadcrumbed by practically all my dates in the last couple of years. What they all had in common were a lack of interest and effort, and they'd text maybe once a week or two, but not bother replying after. Then a week or two they'd drop another hi and that's it. As I found out, such people are already going out with someone else, but they want a backup in case it doesn't work out. If and when it works out then I'll get ghosted.

      Generally a good guideline, but some people just don't want to invest the extensive logistical coordination required without building more of a rapport through chatting first. If I don't know whether someone can hold a conversation at all, hell no I'm not spending hours on planning dog sitting and getting ready and meeting up and presumably spending money IRL for what might be an awkward waste of time. Gotta get that mental connection first. So yeah, the preference not to meet up right away can be valid. Later on though, yeah, especially if someone says they're down to meet up but then never actually commits to a plan and always says they'll let you know soon etc, then that's a flag for sure

    Not gonna lie, I was ready to be upset that you framed it like only guys do this, but I kept watching to see where you went with it, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that it was acknowledged that women do it as well. Honestly, I can think of a few times this has been done to me, and sadly I can think of some times that I probably did this to others without really understanding what I was doing and how wrong it was.
    It's a good thing to draw attention to. People are so afraid of finding themselves in a void where they don't have options immediately available to them that they end up crossing lines they shouldn't cross. I think this has some overlap with Test Driving - where someone will start showing interest in a person who they feel might be a relationship candidate, even though they already have a relationship, because they intend to break things off with the current SO and want to have someone to fill that void immediately.
    All that said, you still ended up wounding me deeply, Anna. At 35, I felt those comments about aging all too keenly, and I didn't appreciate it one bit. :'(

    I just spent the last 6 months playing this game with someone I truly thought was serious....only to have him act this way. He's a completely emotionally unavailable, self-absorbed, never-been-married narcissistic guy.
    So I turned the game around and mirrored his behavior.
    Haven't heard a prop out of him since. 😂

I am much more confident now in who I am. My mom said only those her age can get away with acting like that but that is ridiculous. You have one life - live it on your terms!!

    This is something I seemed to learn pretty early on, no particular reason why, but I seemed to get the social consideration of, well, honesty with the other person. It does take social empathy or at least a willingness to have some for another. For me, it's also a sign of respect of the other's life, feelings, time, and relationship freedom. I don't want to be selfish or manipulative. I don't want to lead them on or misrepresent my intentions.

    Solid Advice. People do this SO much.
    What's really important is to be aware of it when people are doing it to you so you can take responsibility and accountability for your own emotions and actions.
    This will allow you to drop your expectations and not be lead on or hurt, and also allow you to easily ignore these pseudo-advances, which will help re-enforce to that person that this behavior doesn't benefit them or get them what they want.

      Eternal life in heaven is a free gift from God. No human being deserves it due to his/her good works. We have all sinned and fall short in glory of God(eg.Jesus says if any man looks at woman with lust he has committed adulterly with her in his heart..No man is that pure😅). So how did God give us this free gift🤔? He sent his only begotten son to be betrayed,humiliated ,beaten and die as fine/payment for our sins and rose from the dead on the third day. Since he is a just God and has to punish sin. All you have to do is humbly repent of all your sins(read the 10 commandments) honestly turn away from them. Believe in/trust that Jesus did that for you. Confess with your mouth that he is your lord and saviour..You will be saved from hell🔥. The holyspirit(his omnipresent spirit) will in dwell within you and convert your cold heart of stone into that of flesh that can truly love God and be a slave of righteousness and not of sin. This might be the last time you read the true gospel of salvation..look around 🔥🔥 the end is nigh. Please don't reject God's gift. Your soul is on the line.Jesus loves you❤
