Do you prefer to be pursued or do you prefer the chase?
Brian (25): I like to be pursued, but going for and winning the chase is the best hands down.
Jackson (25): Um … probably somewhere in the middle. I’m the type of guy who chases to the point that I peak your interest, then I’ll pull back. It’s got a lot to do with a fear of rejection, but also my charming side really shows when I’m being pursued. At a certain point, I’ll take over the chase again.
Drew (30): My ego likes when I’m pursued (gently) but all men only truly appreciate what they have to work for (it’s why spoiled rich kids get bored so easily and 1 night stands rarely turn into meaningful relationships).
Kevin (27): I am lazy, so i prefer to be pursued, haha. Well I also give credits to the girl who go against the common stigma and actively pursue their goal.
Rob (27): Back in my hunting days it was all about the chase.
Ike (24): I am all about the chase. If you say “no” I say “okay lets go, this is gonna be fun”. It also shows me that you are not easy.
Is it true, that if a guy doesn’t text or call you first- it means he’s just not that into you?
Brian (25): Not true. SOMETIMES STUFF HAPPENS
Jackson (25): Not necessarily. I rarely call or text people first, I appreciate being called because it lets me know that she’s serious about something and that she’s not one to play games.
Drew (30): In most cases. In cases of mutual environments (school, church) it may just be a perceived lack of interest that keeps is from reaching out. Sometimes a general invite from a girl to some group event might open our eyes to possibilities we hadn’t seen before. But in general…. Yes.
Kevin (27): True. If we are into you, we will call/text.
Ike (24): No, because some guys like to be chased aka play hard to get. Girls cant be shy and not text first it’s 2011.
In your opinion, what is a sure fire way for a woman to know that a guy is into her?
Brian (25): If I actually show interest in what you have to say, if I am maintaining some kind of physical contact, or if I tell you “I like you”.
Jackson (25): The amount of time and effort that he puts in. People make time for everything they want. If a guy is tells you that he’s really busy, he’s not that into you. If a guy is constantly hitting you up, he’s either a stalker or into you. Once he starts threatening you, the answer is clear.
Drew (30): Lots of SINCERE question asking.
Rob (27): In my experience, we lads have a tendency of making it blatantly obvious when we’re into a girl..
Ike (24): Every guy has their own actions. Texts do say a lot. If I text you, I miss you… that means I am into you.
In a relationship, who’s the boss and why?
Brian (25): Whoever made the plans. Cause they took the time to.
Jackson (25): I’m the boss, but I adore her, so I spoil her.
Drew (30): Most will tell you that it’s equal but, men are the head by nature. Even the strongest most successful women still, at heart, wants to simply feel like a girl when they are with their man.
Kevin (27): I believe most girls want an alpha male whom they can rely and depend on. It is nature. But, I do think proper communication and mutual respect is the key to a healthy relationship.
Rob (27): The lady is in charge – always (she might be reading this hehe).
Ike (24): The guy in the streets and the lady in the sheets.
