it's a really horrible thing to do
i mean FFS, i have no intention of picking up the phone when you call if you were dull/shit in the sack, but it would be nice to be able to have the option to ignore you!!!!

I don't see any difference between saying you will call and not
and not taking their call to be honest.

That's because there isn't.
Everyone just likes to be the one in control of the rejection, and if you can dress that up as "all women/men (delete as applicable) are utter SHITS" then all the better for the anger management.

precisely
which leads us back to saying you will call and not. Easy way out of not being rejected yourself.

I bet there was a grain of truth in it
and we weren't necessarily talking about you in particular.

The unfortunate thing is that as much as it sucks, it happens. Not everyone will do it. There is an element of needing to man the fuck up. It is not the fault of every man that she may have low self-esteem brought on by this, it is unlikely that any of them set out to bring her down.

Getting that worked up about it, and doing what seems like settling for someone awful because all the others she's been out with have been shit is a bit desperate in my view.
