The One Phrase I Hear A Ton From Girls Over 27

[Disco]

I am hearing this a ton when I go out on dates or just talk to girl's randomly out, "i don't have any expectations anymore". I never remember hearing that in my early 20's. Obviously I know what that's about.

They finally realize they won't find *THAT* guy they want with all the qualities they desire.

 

[DJDamage]

They are lying to themselves and for anyone willing to listen.

 

[Disco]

agree with lying. there's no way you can fully become nihilistic and still be going out on dates. one of the girls who told me this however had huge mickey mouse ears and her hair pulled back behind them. i really wanted to comment that she may find her expectations as long as she put her hair over her ears, but i just couldn't do it.

 

[Sandow]

RED FLAG if I ever heard this from a girl.

I am guessing that women who say this are implying that men have let them down.
Perhaps this comment is a consequence of women having absurd expectations to begin with, or maybe men generally really are a bunch of limp dycks.

Why not ask her, " So what were your expectations? "
The answers would be interesting - I think that she would sound like she is reading straight out of Cosmo.

In Woman3se, it means she's made a lot of bad mating choices.

You're beating me to it lately.

I was going to respond to the OP that I've heard the same thing from women (dating or non-dating) usually after the tail end of a real bad dating experience. Want me to be more specific?

Usually right after dating a guy they THOUGHT was THAT guy in her life and then all of a sudden, he took off.

Now, I can see how some people here might confuse EXPECTATIONS with STANDARDS.

Just because she has no expectations, doesn't mean she's lowering her standards and is just going to take in the first guy that'll want something serious with her. She's just saying that she's not going to put all her eggs in her "emotion basket" because she's most likely afraid that you are THAT guy and might run away just as the last guy did.

Funny, because as soon as you hear something like this, you almost want to run.

And as Jophil said... go ahead, ask what the expectations are and then ask her what she's looking for and how low the bar might be set and you'll get all sorts of confusing and canned statements.


And of course, the obvious... girls over 27 start to have a shorter list of options and a shorter list of tolerances than that girl at age 20 who is a sophomore in college and just wants to party.

heh funny.
The last and only woman I've been close to said pretty much that exactly. After I managed to **** it all up with my afc ways she told me she never expects anything from anyone. That is just pure bull****. It's a nice idea but it's next to impossible not to expect anything from anyone you meet.

This is after I opened my heart to her and she blew me off because I didn't take the initiative and **** her brains out the first night we met.
It's a long story but the jist is I basically learned that women will say one thing and do the exact opposite without giving it a second thought.

Broads operate solely on emotion, not logic.

It's a red flag!

She's either an attention wh0re or she's setting you up to flake on you.

 

[Lexington]

Yup, it's definitely a red flag.

"I don't have any expectations anymore"

You notice how she takes absolutely no responsibility for her implied history of failed relationships? She was the only common denominator in all of those relationships. But no, it couldn't have anything to to do with her, could it? It's not possible that she just keeps getting involved with the wrong guys without learning from her mistakes. Could it be that she is doing something wrong? Of course not!

Nope, the poor girl just expected too much of the male sex. She is a saint in world full of sinners. But she has been so kind as to lower her standards so that she can accommodate those of us who are not quite capable of reaching her lofty ideals. How very kind of her! Be weary of women in their later 20s who act bitter. There is a good chance these girls have a massively over inflated idea of their value.

Excellent ^^

Are you sure that you are only 25 years old ?

 

[JdelaSilviera]

Of course, they have been dating jerks for all their life and then they realize (after many years) that those type of guys aren´t reliable. Women aren´t very smart that´s the true...

 

[Poonani Maker]

I know a few gals like this. They say this even with their tits droopy now. They don't even notice their own tits are sagging.
