I thought that only women did that, can you give some examples of men doing this too?

I'm pretty blunt, no beating around from me. If you don't want a straight up answer or opinion, you'd better not ask. Some may think I've become a bit jaded over the years in business, but I've found it serves me better to be honest from the git-go.

Why don't you ask the one doing it next time you see it happen?
I always believe being straightforward and honest is the best way to go.
It's very hard for one person to explain another's behavior.

Hello KIG877
I would personally say that most men are reluctant to state directly what they want is because they are afraid of being rejected, or as we said "shot down."
Another reason could be that a guy may not like a girl or because she may be coming on to him too strong.
Perhaps a guy may not be sure of his sexual identity. Or he may actually be gay but reluctant to admit it.
I suppose some guys lack the verbal skills to state their desires in acceptable terms.

I used to beat around the bush. Now, most of the time, I really don't care so I just ignore it and hope it goes away. The rest of the time I conveniently forget about it. That, pretty much, covers most of the bases. If one happens to sneak through the cracks... well, ain't no man gonna admit being perfect. Besides, it's usually the wife who accuses the man of... "you think you're so perfect."
Need I say more... :)

in a past relationship, I found myself doing this a little. Not very characteristic of who I am, but when I thought about it, the reason was very simple.
she misunderstood EVERYTHING I said to her. ...... took it the wrong way, changed the meaning, added stuff, sometimes it involved accusations, and yelling.
it made it very hard to "just say something" to her.
I believe it is a sign of some very bad chemistry.

I guess when it comes to relationships, men DO beat around the bush. Mostly for fear of being rejected or hurting you as well. I know that is stupid, but thats just how us men are sometimes.

Some men don't want to ruin a good thing... like a friendship with a cute girl. Once you go down that road of relational interest, there's usually no turning back. (at least not w/o time)

it is when you two of you can't communicate , but sometimes when you meet somebody knew and they don't know the nerve to ask or tell you something ,it like you have to pick up the hints,Ive done it myself because Im afraid of rejection.

Oookay Kig, put the bong down. No fast movements, put head on the pillow, it'll all be better in a little while, may even require a WaffleHouse run in a couple hours.

because I do it, and its about asking a certain woman out, its all about being rejected.
As for eveythng else in communication and wants in gneral, I dont have a problem with it.

This hits it perfectly on the head as well.
