Why do women hate for guys to do things with other guys, but refuse to join in with us alone?

I’ve asked dates to go to the shooting range, to learn to play golf, to get used to throwing a Frisbee or learn how to scuba dive or skydive and the answer is always: “What? That’s crazy!” or ” I don’t want to do that…it’s boring” or “Why can’t we just go to the mall/shopping” Come on…Get off your azz!!!
Kenny, aside from your obvious rudeness, you’re illiterate! Ha!!
Women like men are idiots
Your asking the wrong women LOL sounds good to me.
Think you’ve just met some boring girls ha lol
uh I would totally be down for any of those things minus the shooting range. go find some girl like me lol.
Um.. I would do every one of those things. Maybe you’re just hooking up with the wrong women.
By the way, I’m an expert marksman on an M-16.
Because, not alot of women enjoy golf, or going to the shooting range, maybe your wife/girlfriend would enjoy scuba diving more if you mentioned the tropical paradise you two would have to go to to scuba dive.
Make it something fun like playing spin the bottle and I bet she will play.
Some women just want it all and screw your happiness. Find a woman that doesn’t b**ch and moan all the time and one that respects your hobbies and your ‘man time’. Just make sure it’s a healthy balance…don’t ever completely ignore or neglect the lady in your life.
lol. your looking at the wrong type of girls i think. those things sound fun. I wish my husband wanted to go shooting. or paint ball/ lazer tag. that would be fun. I dont mind hanging out with my husband and his friends, as long as they want me there. but I can keep right up with them and Im not easily offended so they dont usually mind. You just need to keep looking you’ll find a girl that likes what you like, but you’ll still have to take her to the mall too. lol
You’re meeting the wrong women. Lots of women enjoy the sorts of activities you describe. You might want to join some scuba or skydiving clubs to meet women who are already into that, or try skating or biking or something where you might meet more active women who would be more physically adventurous. You could also try sports bars or singles ads and emphasize the physical activities you enjoy. Masters Swim clubs, triathlete groups, etc. are all good places to meet more adventurous women.
Everyones different- some people are indoor people and prefer to do things like shopping and going to the movies while others are outdoor people and enjoy adventurous things. You just have to find the right girl. My boyfriend thanks me every day for being an outdoor person.
Not liking those things has nothing to do with being on our azz dear. Why are you b*tching about dating women who don’t share your interests? Instead of griping, find more suitable partners (they are out there).
MANY of us do a variety of things off our azz…think before you type something so foolish.
And I doubt typical chicks hate that you do those things with other guys…I don’t care if the person I’m dating has interests or hobbies I don’t share. In fact I think it’s healthy (couples need time apart). Not every guy I date likes to motorcycle ride or trikke or go running or play on the beach or dance or tube down a river or some of the other things I enjoy doing. That’s fine…we need some things in common, not all. I’ll find others to do those things with, or do them alone.
Well, don’t forget that if you want your girl to do these things with you then you have to cowtawl and do some of her things, too. I do agree with you as I am a girl who loves football, was State champ in Nevada in billiards and was always wanting to be active. I also wanted to do things you suggest, but not all of them. Skydiving? Don’t get mad at her for not wanting to do that!!! Scuba diving also is up to that person, not because she is a girl!!! I’m sure some of your guy friends don’t and won’t do some of the things on your list! BE FAIR AND COMPROMISE! You will have a much better relationship when you do. You have only listed pretty strong “guy things” up there. Well, do some “gal things” too and you will be surprised how much better your relationship will be! And also, teach her how to play pool or throw darts, etc., when you are ALONE with her so she will not be embarrassed when you go out with others. Hey, try it! (SHHHH! I HATE TO SHOP!!)
Youre just dating the wrong girls. Date a real woman.
well this should let you know right off the bat if it’s going to work out or not. i am a girlie girl who loves shopping and the finer things in life don’t get me wrong, but i like a guy who is different and spunky and spontaneous. if you love to do those things that you suggest, and she is put off by it, don’t even bother.
i will admit that if it’s a first date and you suggested a shooting range i might be a little uneasy…because i don’t like guns, but i am recently married and have found that just by being attentive to my husband and his interest i have gained lots of “guy knowledge” that his friends love me for and helps me to go out with the group…and i find myself getting interested in things i didn’t care about before. He’s into MMA, and I don’t like all the blood and stuff, but I can appreiate his like for it and the talent it takes and he gets so proud when I pull out the name Mirco Crocrop (sp?) randomly and guys are astonnished. He also loves cars and sells a high end brand, and I can rattle off how many horsepower and torque a particular car has just by him talking about it and being stoked.
point of my long story is, that if they don’t like the stuff you are into then either they are just not into it not for you (whew easy test for you!), or they are being a selfish stick in the mud. If they care about you, they should at least appreciate what you are interested in and try stuff out…they might end up liking it! Just make sure you reciprocate…you might hate shopping but maybe nudge her into vic secret and tell her you love those boyshort panties and she should buy another pair.
Because a lot of people are selfish, and I won’t just turn this towards women, I think men too. I feel like a couple should be able to switch off on the things they like to do, especially if they don’t have common interests. Like let one week be about where she wants to go and let the other be about where the he wants to go…instead of the two fighting about whether this is stupid or not. It doesn’t matter whether it’s not your thing, just get involved in your significant other’s likes and interests and you could find that it’s not so bad afterall. It’s called compromising and that’s what a relationship should be about.
Like sports aren’t my thing, but I’ll go buy tickets to a game because I know it’s something he likes to do and let the day be about him…then the next weekend is my choice…then we’re both happy.
Unfortunately, there are few women who enjoy those things. I have my own shooting range and am a natural dead-eye. It would be nice to have a female friend join me once in a while. I guess it’s the Women are from Venus, Men are from Mars thing. There are a few exceptions though. Personally, I love your list. I just have never scuba dived though, because of geographics. There is nothing I hate more than shopping.
