A Woman's Guide to Four Reasons Why He Didn't Call

Karl Withakay
I know how your mind works. Your thinking of reasons he didn't call you. Perhaps, his phone fell in the toilet and your number was stored in his phone. He has amnesia from an accident. The cell tower near his home fell down. I mean, it MUST be something like that. The date went so well, what else would keep him from calling you back.

Yes indeed, there could be plenty of reasons like this on why he didn't call you. I have news for you though. That's likely not the case. I'll let you know just why your phone isn't ringing.

He Wasn't Ready For A Serious Girlfriend.

He may have been very attracted to you at first. He may STILL be very attracted to you. During the date though, he got to know you a bit better and realized you were looking for a serious relationship. He didn't have the energy to explain it all to you so he just dropped the ball when he realized that your expectations may have been different from his.

The Lesson To Be Learned.....

The woman he wants to introduce to his friends and family may not be the woman he wants to date right now and you're not a friend with benefits kind of person. Don't take it as an insult. That's a good thing unless you were after a friends with benefits kind of thing.

You Did Nothing But Talk About YOU.

During the date, you talked about your pet cat., your job, your hobbies, your friends, and your goals. Would you want to be with a man like that? You talked with him like he was one of your girlfriends and he hardly got a word in.

The Lesson To Be Learned.....

You may disagree but the truth is, men are NOT primarily focused on how attractive you are. This is what building an attraction is all about. Most men don't want a woman who spends most of her time talking about herself. It makes you look self absorbed. You need to ask him about his life as well. Concentrate less on making an impression and more on cultivating the best connection possible.

He's Afraid Of Confrontation

Some women will flip out if the guy says it's not working for them. Perhaps he was initially attracted to you and the attraction faded for some unknown reason. (it happens). He's not going to say, "well your cool and all, but I think we're better off as friends" in front of your face.

The Lesson To Be Learned.....

Yeah, I know it's a pretty lame reason but some guys haven't matured enough to effectively communicate with women on a confrontational level. Your definition of confrontation may be different from his. Stop waiting by the phone. He's too much of a wuss. He won't be calling.

He Had His Options Open

Maybe he's dating another woman but it's not serious yet. Perhaps he's leaning on making this other woman a more permanent fixture in his life. It happens.

The Lesson To Be Learned.....

Dating can be like musical chairs. He's otherwise occupied. Don't beat yourself up. It has nothing to do with you. He's just keeping his options open until the right lady pops up. It's a good idea to assume that your date is dating other people. This assumption should stand until there is a stated commitment between the two of you.
