A good comeback? What are you looking to comeback with?

Maybe ask her out to do something?

Nothing. Tell her to enjoy her singlehood. Women like her are narcisstic. "I dont want to get hurt" translates to "you arent a combination of Bo Jackson and Donald Trump, so get lost."

no,i do not think that is true.

i think these are just ideas guys pump into their minds.lets be realistic.i know many women who are like that.and this retreat from pursuin relationships is really a "shell" to protect the ego.

love never gets hurt,its ego that is hurt.

so it has nothing to do with the guy not being good enough,its only that she is protecting her ego.

i say move on.

I've been hearing a lot of enlightened sayings today. This is one of them.

"It'll only hurt a little bit."

You could try telling her not to be such a pussy... but really she's telling you she doesn't find you attractive so Next.

She is just making a statement about being single. What kind of comeback did you expect us to give you? "Girlfriend, you don't know what you are saying because I'm God's gift to women!"

you don't need a comeback for that. if she told you that and it wasn't to blow you off, she's probably just being real with you

if you're trying to make an emotional connection with her, empathize with her and where she's coming from - was she burnt recently? or does she just wanna have fun without being weighed down by emotional commitment. most guys can relate to both

and if it's the latter, sex w/ no strings attached should come easier

This one made me laugh. Do it lightheartedly with a smile.

If it were me, I'd just call it out for exactly what it is.

"You aren't afraid to get hurt. The idea of being vulnerable terrifies you."

When girls come to me with their qualms and issues expecting a shoulder to cry on, I do cold-reads to generate attraction and interest. During high school, I used this one a lot to get out of the friend-zone, but I did happen to attract a lot of girls that were pretty messed up in the head. Didn't go out with any of them because I knew what was good for me, but it's a good way to break down barriers.
