MEN, what do you LITERALLY mean when you say:?

Question

" I simply think that (a specific female) is worth placing any emotional investment."

What do you SPECIFICALLY mean by this?

Answer 1

Well, personally, i've never uttered that phrase in my life, both verbally and mentally (until now).

I could tell you what i THINK it means, but i have a feeling i don't like it anymore than you will.

edit for evilgoo: Really? Huh. i guess i don't trust people enough to tell them who i love.

Maybe i just have a better understanding of the emotion 'love', perhaps...

Answer 2

i never heard this, but i had guy telling me: he is glad he figured out - that I'm bi-t-ch before he " invested any time in me "

i dunno, but he was a financier

so maybe your is a psychologist

Answer 3

His emotional investment? or hers?  is the question, I think.

either it means " I'm willing to fall"

or

"I'm willing to see if I can make her fall for my benefit"

ei: A Player, if she loved me she would do this, and this, and this.

I think I might invest some emotion in her, stacks his cards and counts his chips and begins the "game"

Love makes people do stupid things, and once he has that, he has the control he wants, if he's a player.

Because when you invest in something, you have an interest in something other than the original investment.

And you say any,er,um?

no clue.

Do you know when your trying to read something, but it's too d**n technical to even understand and you wish they would put it in regular speaking terms? Yes, this is possible, some men are like that! :)

Answer 4

I don't understand what you're asking.

Answer 5

Channy, i have listened to your questions and answers all week long. And I simply can not understand where you are coming from. I do not dislike you. But I can not, nor will not try and figure out what you are getting at. I am done. Dont ask me for advice. Ask some weird lady. you are a wierd lady, yes?

Answer 6

Exactly what it says. When a man speaks he usually means exactly what he says nothing less nothing more.

Answer 7

Do you mean

1. " I simply think that (a specific female) is worth placing any emotional investment."

or

2. " I simply think that (a specific female) is NOT worth placing any emotional investment."

The wording of the question is a bit confusing.

If it's the first one, it would mean "I'm willing to put energy, trust,focus and time  into ________ because she's worth it/special enough etc

If it's the 2nd one, it would be that " I'm NOT willing to put energy trust,focus and time  into ________ because she's NOT worth it/special enough etc

People usually don't want to waste their time, emotional vulnerability etc in ANYONE if the person seems nasty (for example). I think it would mean the same thing if a WOMAN said it too.

I hope that helps.

Answer 8

it means i want to put my willie in your whoo whoo. VAJAJA

Answer 9

I am a guy. And what we are saying is that, we would be willing to take the risk of being hurt and end up looking like a fool. Because we think that this girl might be the one. Or we think she is special. Remeber guys hate being denied and hate being hurt.

answer mine please :)
