I’ve approached several girls in my life, and to be honest, there are a few things some of them do that genuinely annoy me. I don’t know if it’s just my experience or if other guys can relate, but I’ve noticed a certain pattern — especially among girls I’ve met in school — and it gets under my skin.
First off, there’s this mindset that many girls carry: the belief that a guy must get them something. And I don’t just mean gifts after talking for a while — I’m talking about girls who expect you to buy them things almost immediately after meeting them. There was this particular girl I met for the first time, and just a few minutes into the conversation, she was already hinting that I should “get something” for her. I was like, “Wait… what?” In my mind, I was shocked. I kept thinking, we literally just met. There was no real connection yet, no proper conversation, nothing — and she was already expecting a favour or a gift. That kind of behaviour is a huge red flag for me. After that day, I didn’t even bother to message her again. It just felt like I was being seen as a wallet rather than a person.
Another thing that really annoys me is the whole "playing hard to get" strategy. I know some people say it’s a form of self-respect or a way to test a guy’s seriousness, but to be honest, it’s frustrating. If you genuinely like me, why not just show it? Why make me spend extra time chasing you, pretending like you’re not interested? I’ve heard girls say things like, “I liked him, but I just wanted him to work harder,” and that kind of logic pisses me off. I understand being cautious or not wanting to rush things, but there’s a difference between taking it slow and pretending not to care at all. Sometimes, it feels like a game, and personally, I’m not here to play games with emotions.
Then there’s the one that probably annoys me the most — when a girl gives out her number and then ignores you completely. This one has happened to me more times than I can count. I approach a girl, we vibe, we talk, and she willingly gives me her number. Naturally, I take it as a sign that she’s interested too. But the moment I message her, she either leaves me on read or doesn’t respond at all. I mean, what’s the point of giving me your number if you’re not going to reply? Just tell me you're not interested — I’ll respect it more than giving me false hope. It’s disappointing, and honestly, it’s a waste of time and energy.
In the end, I know not all girls are like this, and I’ve met some really amazing ones, too. But these few things? They’re major turn-offs. I just wish more people would be honest, straightforward, and real — because playing games and leading people on is exhausting.
