Why would a guy pretend to be in love with you just for sex?

Because he thinks he may never get it by being honest. Sometimes girls want you to care about them. They don't want to be a one night stand, so they will make you prove your worthiness, and at the same time boost their own self confidence. If someone loves you, then you must be special, right? That's simply Sex 101! Tell her how great she is. That's better than some guys who will not even show a shread of appreciation and expect to get laid, AND DO GET LAID! Girls like that too. Sometimes the guy is actually a good guy, but immature and says I Love You when it's too early in the relationship. He doesn't like the girl later, because he learns some of the things he doesn't like or love about her. He's still a good guy though. Sex is a closeness for some guys, and a romp in the hay for someone else. One guy says I Love You and shows how much by having that close bond with you, the other one says it because he's being polite in asking you to have sex. Do you want a long term thing, or a roll in the hay? ANSWER Because quiet sadly is imature. A confident mature man is honest, at least with something as important as saying to someone that they love them. It's usually not worth it, so think about it. If what you want is what he's giving you then good luck and be strong, because you'll need it. answer anyone can say love you that doesnt mean anything its how they show it
