why do some men hide their true feelings from girls?
444370
Some men just think if they express themselves they seem week. We think a woman admires us for our strength and back in the old days it was true that if a man showed fear or sadness or even that he was in love, then he wasn't a "man". It's in our nature to hide any softness. Only women were soft. But some of us have realized, though, that women are more independent now and don't need so much "protection". It's just in our nature to to be strong and silent, though in some cases it's for homophobic reasons. Some men just need to be assured that expressing feelings is not a weakness but that it shows they are comfortable themselves and their mate. Let him know that if he expresses himself to you privately that he doesn't have to be so open when company is around. Trust me, it's not just you he may be protecting himself from. If he's been hurt in the past it could take a long time to open up. Just don't over do it by forcing him. Some men just feel more comfortable keeping it inside, but you have your needs too so don't give up. Hope I could help.

To put it plainly guy's don't want Girls as friends they want girlfriends, he wouldn't bother with you if he didn't feel someit. So chance it definitely darlin', its better to have tried and failed than to never have tried.

Some guys are afraid to open up and as they are afraid of being hurt, teased, ridiculed, etc. Trust me when I say that it can be anything from something as petty as shyness stopping them to something as serious as major mental problems. It all depends on the guy. No matter how close you are to a guy, it takes a wee bit o' time before he can really begin to trust enough to open up and then there are guys like me....who open up and are honest from the word 'go'. I recommend a book titled: Men are from Mars, Women are From Venus. It is both a good read as well as offers great insight into both the male and female aspects of a relationship.

Because he liked it when you were all gaga over him.  Even if he didn't share youre feelings, it's a big ego boost for a guy when a girl has a crush on him and it's hard to let go of.

Guys are shy when it comes to feelings and the like.  Also they don't like to open up unless they are almost positive the feeling is returned, they don't like to be hurt.  Sometimes you just have to coax it out of them.

Some guys will,but others are too "shy" to do so. They are afraid of rejection or seeming weak because they admitted their feelings. It makes them vulnerable and they don't like it.

Ive known more guys that babble and dont care if its a secret thats connected in any way to reality then women. Most guys if they keep secrets do it out of cowardness anyway.

Could be a lot of reasons, but most likely jealously and insecurity.  Men do this exact thing too.  Some of it has to do with possessiveness, but my feelings are just worries that the new girl would hear all the wrong things about me, or not treat the guy as good as I did, or stole him (that hussy)

Sometimes guys are just trying to look cool and sometimes they try to look like they don't care so much.  Deep inside they are jealous though.  It's human nature.  They won't say it, but they will act on it.  Probably in a more shady way if not talk directly to the other guy.  But if they say they're not jealous, it's a total BS.

I think that guys feel that they have to lie because they dont feel to comfortable about themselves and they want to impress the girl. It's like if their with their friends and they want to make a cool impression without changing the guy stereotype which is to a bunch of women that all men are dogs which is'nt true. Yes some guys are ass holes but I mean a woman can be a bitch. It's like the stereotype for women that their all manipulative which is also not true. Their not all after your money. Hell cant a woman just like you. But.. back to the origional thing why guys lie; guys seem to lie more and more to impress they dont want to let the girl down and sure lying isnt the best way to make a good impression and I'm not even going to try and back that up but hey were not all perfect. If you feel like the guys lying to you confront him, I know it's not always the easy thing to do but you want someone nice and it's not "nice" to lie so their you have it. If he admits to lying the best thing to do is give a second chance. If he does it again you have every right to kick his but right out that door just tell him "Watch your step on the way out of my life." and leave him.

Men know that a small thing for them, can be a huge thing for a woman.  So they are in fact lying to protect themselves from a big argument, or fight or whatever best suits you.  Some are actually sensitive and dont want to see you upset or crying over something that looks bad but is not (in their eyes).\nThe sad thing is they are not good liars and sooner or later we find out then the fight or argument will be even bigger than they thought.

They are insecure and need to know that all these women like them.  It's pathetic.  It's the same reason girls dress slutty and dance on bars.  To get attention.  And the more attention they get, the better they feel about themselves.  A man who is truly confident in himself knows when he's got a good thing going on and won't jeopardize it.  Look for those.  And don't give those lame guys any more of a chance to break your heart.  Good luck!

Don't Know, ask the guy himself. only him can really give the main reason for not showing his emotion. maybe his afraid you might break his heart or you might take him for a ride if he shows you how he really feels about you. he just scare, doesn't wanna get hurt
