Actions VS Words

I noticed that lately, the guys that I've been going out with are constantly giving me mixed signals. Back in the day, say 5 years ago I don't remember encountering this sorta dilemma.

It's either I like you or I don't. Plain and simple. Just the way I like it *laughs* but yah nowdays you can't tell anymore. For the past 6 months or so there was only one guy i dated who was solid. The rest were either I like you (and they say this) but I don't know, things are complicated la de da. The other set would show me with his actions but when it comes to a certain point they stop. Don't ask me why coz I dont know and I didn't bother asking them.Why push for someone's affections when they are not willing to give it to you...*mehh*

So yah nowdays you can never tell. Before if a guy were to reach out for your hand, or tries to hug you in the movies or kisses you goodnight after a good day out means they want to go steady.They want you to be their girl. Things has changed. You can't take their words entirely when their actions aren't the same or vice versa. You can't say someone is together just because you saw them hugging one another (intimately) or holding hands.

I brought up this issue to several of my guy friends and according to them when it comes to men, I can almost always trust their actions. Why? because with actions is like a form of habit or ritual is something they can't hide as well as words. It's like in their nature.If i wanted to know if they guy really liked me I should observe his actions carefully.His body language,his gestures and the way he looks at me.If it all seems to be positive and he's doing everything and anything to gain my attention then he's smitten.

Armed with this knowledge, I'm still quite sceptical. I guess we'd just have to wait and see. Believe me I am in no rush to be with someone. I have all the time to see the outcome.
