Faux Friends

Sometimes I wonder why guys do the things they do. For ex: the guy at the gym who offered to bring me a pair of Giant White Shiny work out gloves (before he even asked me I noticed them from across the gym and thought to myself how ugly they were, little did I know I would soon be offered a pair of my very own)Anyway, super nice gesture. Super random gesture.

I asked a few of my guy friends why this man age, aprox: 48 would go out of this way to offer me something like that. They all said that he obviously wants to date you/see you. You know what I mean. But really are you sure? I mean he knows I have to be about 20 years younger than him, it would be so random if thats what he was trying to do.

Theres also a man at work. Hes like maybe 15-20 years older than me, he keeps asking me if I wanna talk on the phone even though i told him at the beginning of the summer no. A) you can tell hes older then me cause he wants to talk on the phone; who does that anymore? B) Why? We can just talk at work. All my guy friends say that he wants something more but I really think that its so far fetched that cant possibly be true.

So are the guys right in saying that some men will pull any stunt to see what happens? Or, do guys just want to be super nice and want to really be friends? I have a theory that males do not just want to be friends with females. Its impossible just watch "When Harry Met Sally" and you'll understand what I mean. So I dont know what to think, I do think that their approach is somewhat funny though.

(After posting this I talked to my friend about how he was asked for my number so I played the whole well give me yours and ill call you. Anyway never let that person touch your phone because I checked outgoing calls and lo and behold he called himself from my phone mid conversation. So now he has my number. So Sneaky/ Creepy)
