Why do men just tell you what you want to hear?

Why can't they just be honest?

    There can only be a few reasons somebody would do that:

    1. to hide something

    2. to get their way

    3. to not have to deal with it

    aww I feel so bad for a lot of the guys out there.

    They really do get a bad wrap from the dbags.

    I know soo many guys who've been cheated on and lied to.

    Really, girls are just as bad. We're not angels.

    But the ones that do tell you what you want to hear, their just doing that because they know what THEY want, and think that telling you that is the fastest way to getting it.

    I don't think it is in bad sense if i love my girl I would definitely say somethings which she would like to hear, that is a respect for you women, and if you still have objection then we have to change,

    what you want to hear means only what you like and that is respect

    And you question dosent specify much.

    I have have told many times what i want to say but they dont like it so ultimately you have to change . survival of the fittest.blame Darwin
