It Was Over Before It Began

When you go out to social functions together he ignores you for the majority of the evening.

Consider yourself nothing more than a man’s “back up entertainment” if the guy you’re seeing has a bad habit of ignoring you at events and social gatherings. The only thing worse than this is if he treats you like a social leper whenever other women are around.

I can’t imagine a confident, self-possessed woman orbiting a man who barely remembers she’s even there with him. But it does happen, and usually because a woman might easily rationalize a man’s inconsiderate behaviour if she finds him “dreamy” enough. Seriously, don’t rationalize a man’s behaviour, especially if he hasn’t already proven himself as reliable relationship material.

Now, there are numerous reasons why a man may either consciously or subconsciously ignore you at a social gathering, but they are all based on this common premise: Spending time with you and being seen with you are simply not his highest priorities.

Obviously, this is bad. But here’s why…

A guy does this because he either wants to create the space necessary for him to engage with other women or because he isn’t thrilled to “own” you. Either way, it’s clear that cultivating your confidence in him is of little importance to him. Remember, when a man wants a relationship his actions will create comfort and security in you and not just sexual attraction alone.

The thing is, when a man has a serious romantic interest in the woman he’s seeing he’ll want to make it clear to others that she “belongs” to somebody, namely him. You can tell where you stand with a man based on how enthusiastic he is to be seen with you as well as how eager he is to spend time with you at social gatherings. As long as he sees you as a prize worth possessing, entertaining other women becomes a pointless pursuit.

Of course, even if a man has a sincere interest in being with you this doesn’t mean that he’s going to spend every second with you at a social event. A high-quality man will be sure to keep you engaged and entertained without suffocating you in the process. Men like this understand that you can have too much of a good thing way too early in the dating game.

A high status man with a lot of social capital (or even a guy who knows how to emulate high status behaviour just to impress you) will make his rounds at a social gathering but will always return to you and ensure that you receive the highest quality of his attention. Giving you some space to “miss him” helps to build the image that he’s a confident man with high social value and a strong sense of independence.

So remember, a guy who’s serious about you will make it quite clear to others that you are with him. He won’t make you feel abandoned, undervalued, or worse, invisible around other people.

He gets angry or indignant when you leave things at his place.
