<p>Besides smileys in text messages, bright colors, shiny objects and shoes (not necessarily in that order), women LOVE titles. :D  If they mess with a guy long enough, they&#8217;re going to want to define their relationship with some kind of word, such as &#8220;girlfriend&#8221; or &#8220;fiancee&#8221; or &#8220;wife&#8221;, etc.</p>
<p>As &#8216;bad&#8217; as it is for her when her guy won&#8217;t tell HER they&#8217;re together, it gets even worse in public.  When they meet people, he either doesn&#8217;t introduce her at all or just says her first name, like any other common friend.  The question&#8217;s always &#8220;Why won&#8217;t he tell anyone that we&#8217;re dating? :( &#8220;.  So, ladies&#8230; Here are a few potential reasons why your guy won&#8217;t claim you as his girlfriend&#8230;..</p>
<p><strong>1) Because you&#8217;re NOT</strong></p>
<p>Let&#8217;s start from the start. :)  The way the game works is the guy tries to get laid and you tell him what he&#8217;s going to have to trade you for the sex.  In some cases, that&#8217;s a relationship.  A guy has two choices&#8230; nod, and go along with whatever you said and get some&#8230; or refuse to say he&#8217;s working towards a relationship with you and get nothing.  Odds are that he&#8217;s going to say some variation of &#8220;we&#8217;re dating&#8221; in order to get you to lay down and do the right thing.  What this MEANS, however&#8230; is</p>
<p>nothing.</p>
<p>Nothing at all.  He might be &#8220;dating&#8221; six of y&#8217;all and none of y&#8217;all know about the others.  So what happens is, while you&#8217;re waiting for him to give you a title, he&#8217;s having his cake and eating it too.  This is why he looks all surprised and caught off guard when you say &#8220;Where are we going?&#8221; or &#8220;What are we to each other?&#8221;.  He&#8217;s scrambling to think of something to say other than &#8220;You&#8217;re one of the chicks I enjoy having sex with&#8221;.</p>
<p><strong>2) He already HAS a wife or girlfriend</strong></p>
<p>This SEEMS to be the same as #1, but it&#8217;s worse. :)  If you&#8217;re one of several chicks that he&#8217;s &#8220;seeing&#8221; ;) , you still have a percentage chance of being the cream that rises to the top.  If he already has a woman in the top slot that he never told you about, you can forget about picket fences and two-car garages.  If you think this might describe YOUR relationship, go read <a href="http://billcammack.com/2008/08/03/ladies-how-to-tell-he-has-a-girlfriend/">&#8220;Ladies: How To Tell He Has A Girlfriend&#8221;</a>.</p>
<p><strong>3) Because he doesn&#8217;t have to</strong></p>
<p>How do they say&#8230; &#8220;Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?&#8221;&#8230; or was that &#8220;Why buy the chicken when you can get the eggs for free?&#8221;&#8230; Anyway&#8230;  You get the picture. :)  If he&#8217;s already tapping that, you have ZERO leverage to barter for a promotion.  If you can figure out how HE&#8217;S going to benefit by calling you his girlfriend, then go for it! :D</p>
<p>Of course, you could always call a sex boycott or embargo, except that&#8217;s when you might find out he has more chicks than you &#8220;in the pocket&#8221;.</p>
<p><strong>4) He doesn&#8217;t want to scare off other chicks</strong></p>
<p>Some women have an inability to stick to the facts.  When you see a chick you like and ask them &#8220;Who&#8217;s that?&#8221;, they respond &#8220;Oh&#8230; She has a boyfriend&#8221;.  Then they stand there as if they adequately responded to your query while you&#8217;re thinking &#8220;YOU #&#038;(@&#038;%*$ IDIOT!  I DIDN&#8217;T *ASK* YOU THAT! :( &#8220;.</p>
<p>This situation affects guys in exactly the same way.  If a guy&#8217;s homegirl has a friend who likes him and she asks about the guy, the response she&#8217;ll receive is &#8220;Oh&#8230; He has a girlfriend&#8221;, and his game goes down the drain.</p>
<p>In order to avoid this and maximize one&#8217;s options&#8230; It&#8217;s best not to claim any chicks at all so people can MIND THEIR OWN BUSINESS and stick to the facts when a chick&#8217;s tryinna meet a brotha. :D</p>
<p><strong>5) He&#8217;s embarrassed about how you look</strong></p>
<p>Oftentimes&#8230; A guy&#8217;s standards for a gal he&#8217;ll have sex with are LOWER than his standards for a gal he&#8217;ll be SEEN with.  The fact that he&#8217;ll tap that doesn&#8217;t mean he&#8217;ll go anywhere with you in public&#8230; God Forbid being immortalized in pictures with you, EVAR.  Even if he&#8217;s willing to go out in public with you, it doesn&#8217;t mean he&#8217;s willing to admit to the depth of your relationship.</p>
<p>Guys are competitive.  We all want to be fly and have sex with the hottest chicks.  Unfortunately, :D reality doesn&#8217;t always match up to fantasy, and a brothaz gotsta DOOOO what a brothaz gotsta DOO! :D  Nobody wants to be labeled a &#8220;Chubby Chaser&#8221; or whatever they call guys that like &#8220;Butch&#8221; females or whatever other fetishes are going on these days.  So while he might very well enjoy hooking up with you behind closed doors, he&#8217;s not too likely to admit it to the fellaz and ESPECIALLY not likely to claim you as his exclusive girl.</p>
<p><strong>6) Because his boy already tapped that</strong></p>
<p>For some reason that I&#8217;ll most likely NEVER understand, :) women just about universally refuse to believe that guys they have sex with don&#8217;t tell their close male friends.</p>
<p>Basically, ladies&#8230; You can assume a 16-hour window of privacy&#8230; assuming the guy fell asleep for a full 8 hours after he tapped that.  The best you can hope for is &#8220;Yeah.  I hit it&#8221;.  The worst case&#8230; well the WORST case is videotape&#8230; but the worst case, <i>normally</i>, is a detailed description of WHERE he hit it (indoors, outdoors, on what furniture/appliance&#8230;), WHAT position you were in and HOW MUCH you enjoyed each position.</p>
<p>This being the case&#8230; if you insist on dating guys that know each other, they come to the table (dryer, washing machine&#8230;) knowing what they can get from you and how much they need to do to get it.</p>
<p>Another unfortunate residual from guys&#8217; competitive nature is that in the case of a chick that several guys have messed with, YOU don&#8217;t want to be the one that gets sprung on &#8220;Community Property&#8221;.  Some guys grow out of this and some guys are just glad to be with ANY chick that will give them some at the drop of a hat, so exceptions are made and guys endure the ridicule, funny looks and snide remarks.</p>
<p>For the most part, though&#8230; And I&#8217;ll NEVER understand this one either&#8230; Most guys like to feel that they got their girl &#8220;fresh out the box&#8221;.  It&#8217;s part of the competition thing.  They like to feel special as if they were the only ones their girl gave it up to.  So, for this reason, if you&#8217;re currently dating a friend of a guy who already tapped that, and God Forbid&#8230; SEVERAL guys that already tapped that, you might have to forget about being claimed as an actual girlfriend and choose a more likely achievement, such as winning the Publisher&#8217;s Clearing House Sweepstakes.</p>
