If a girl likes a guy, why can't they just say so?! It doesn't always has to be the guy that has to make the first move does it? I mean if the girl likes the guy, just tell them! I believe the guy will be definitely flattered! Don't give signals and stuff cause us guys are pretty slow when it comes to signals. Like what does it mean when one of your friends say in something like "OHH Jenny likes Brad! " And then Jenny quickly shies away to do something else looking like she's is into Brad but too embarrassed?! I dunno, but why can't girls just be more open if they like some guy?! For example what does it mean if a girl "shies" away from you? Or if a girl just comes up to you and talks randomly? Or if they look at you as you leave the room. Girls are sooo complicated! Any opinions out there?
Hot chick comes up to you, and says, "Hey you're cute, want a drink?" You and her drink all night. She says she wants a boyfriend. You're like, yah I'm lonely too, lets hook up. -The end. -------------- ----------------- --------------------- You notice Hot chick standing by a table. She notices you. YOur eyes meet. You smile. She blushes, and looks away. Your eyes meet a couple of other times that night. You start wondering what she's thinking. Is it about you? You can't focus on your friends because you keep thinking about her, and what to say. Will she like you? DOes she have a boyfriend? You look around to see who she's here with. What is she drinking? What does she like? You can't take your eyes off her. Her eyes are so hypnotic, and her smile is beautiful. YOu see her laughing, and you wonder, what could she be laughing about? What would make her laugh? What would make her smile? What would make her happy? What is she into? What does she do? Your mind is working all night, around this girl. You want to know more about her. You finally get the courage to go up and talk to her. You're nervous. What if she doesn't like you? What if she's a snob? What if she's a bitch? YOu stop. Maybe its not worth it. You hang around again, and play cool. She looks your way again, and you think, maybe it won't be so bad? She notices you, noticing her. She gets all shy, and looks away. Your mind is going crazy, you don't know what to do ~~ "Hi, I'm Trent", she smiles shyly, "Im Jasmine". You're stunned by her beauty, and the fact that she didn't ignore you. You almost missed her name. You offer her a drink, she gladly accepts. You're suddenly worried of saying something stupid. Or forgetting her name. YOu don't want to offend her. YOu don't want to bore her. You want to impress her ~~ You go home alone. And as you lay in bed, you go through the events of the night in your head, and smile. Then you reach over and see her number. When should I call her? What should I say? When would be a good time to call her? When would be too soon? TOo late? Would she want to see me again? What does it mean when a girl gives a guy her number? Was she just being nice? Is she really interested? Is she thinking about me right now? --To be continued.
Its the mystery that keeps men thinking --- about us :) And the work and effort you put into it just makes everything so much better. It puts more value into every little thing. Don't you think?
As a guy, all those mysteries are a total turn off. If I wanted a mysterious hassle and wanted to put my ego on the line in exchange for possible rejection and possibly death, I'd have a quaint discussion with an armed drug dealer about politics in a dark alley.
Seriously, not all guys are looking for a one a night stand. While it's nice to be a considerate and kind gentleman to a lady, ensuring that we worry about such petty things is about as useful as a burnt out light bulb. - 10 days ago

We're just as terrified and confused as you are! And yeah I guess it doesn't always have to be the guy who makes the first move but because of society's stereotypical views, it requires even more guts for a girl to do that. I've heard from other guys that they don't actually like girls to ask them out (guess it depends on the individual? ), so the other terrifying thing for us is the worry that the guy may not be the sort who likes being asked out by a girl.
Well, personally I'm usually very clear on whether I like a guy, but it has NEVER worked out for me to approach a guy first. So that's a big deterrent on approaching anyone at all nowadays. I think it's because the stigma of the guy being the one who initiates has pervaded society so deeply.
I think that a lot of it has to do with society's standards and "rules" that they put on both men and women. Women are always taught to not be the "aggressor" in a relationship and a man is called "weak" if he's too shy to approach a woman. I thought like that until about two years ago. It's hard for women to do the approaching because we're not taught that. My parents look at me like I'm crazy when I tell them that I approached a guy or called a guy first but I feel that if I can have equal rights in the workplace then I should be able to exercise those rights when it comes to liking a guy.
On the other hand, guys make girls extremely nervous. I know that you said guys suck at reading signs but we aren't always clued into that so when we're flipping our hair and being extra loud to get your attention and you just stare at us like a deer in the headlights, the last thing that we want to do is approach you and ask for your number and risk looking like a fool.
Well some guys take things too seriously and girls have a high guard so its hard for us to just walk up to guys and tell them how we fell. I know it would be hard for me.
Just because its never been like that. I guess that men are just the people to handle stuff like "asking the ladies out". But its not to say. Girls can't do it. I think that most girls are shy or feel insecure to go up to a guy and tell him that they like him.
But honestly, for myself, If I liked a guy. I'd tell him straight on.
So you're saying it's okay if it's the other way around. What if the girl doesn't like HIM back?! I know you girls gossip lots behind guy's backs and that's why most guys find it hard to ask girls out because of this. What will the girl think of the guy?! Will she think that he's a "crazy, stalker male? " - 4 months ago

Hey - I'm not saying that it doesn't go both ways. Girls can be more brutal than guys quite honestly. I was just giving you a reason why girls don't just be honest with guys about their feelings. Girls don't ask guys out directly for the same reasons guys don't ask girls out - fear of rejection and getting hurt and for getting 'looked' at in a different way. - 4 months ago
We want a guy to make the first move well mostly me cause it feels nice or something and I'm sorry I'm afraid to come up to a guy and tell him I like him of humiliation although I've done it already and have been rejected didn't feel so bad though cause to me it really didn't matter - he doesn't like me oh well plenty of fish in the sea and sometimes if I'm interested in a guy yes I'll come up to him to tell him I like him but it will be his work to do the job to ask me out! We do lots of things to make a guy notice us - like try to be loud around our friends so the guy we like would look at us or we try to talk to a guy but can't seem to remember what we wanted to say or we talk about you to our friends and laugh and say how cute he is! It's all different things that we do so yes we are complicated but maybe someday you'll understand why!
What if a guy were to come up to you girls and say they like you?! And if you don't like them, they get rejected too! And it's the same thing! What's so different about girls asking guys out once in a while instead... I mean, we live in a world of equality right?! Well, if you girls expect us guys to as you out more, you gotta give us MORE of a hint cause we guys are slow that way... how about blowing us a kiss, or winking at us? Or just a hug?! A kiss on the cheeks perhaps? - 4 months ago

Ok so maybe we could do that but once in a while - not 24/7! - 4 months ago
Ah, come on. If women weren't (most always) the most complicated, fascinating, illogical, emotional, difficult people on the planet, it wouldn't be half as much fun.
The entire premise of 'pitching woo' is built around an elaborate dance between men and women, with a great deal of subtlety and love sickness thrown in the mix; without awkward bits like that, a lot of romance becomes moot. If you think she might like you (and you like her) ask her out. Be gentlemanly, and at worst, you'll get a reputation for being a nice guy.
I'm not saying that women aren't ever overly complex, just that it would be equally bad if they were overly simple. We've cars, computers, and games for that.
This girl at work is really confusing me I want to ask her to prom but thought she had a boyfriend. I heard otherwise from one of her friends. Well...
