I guess it's easy to give into the fear of rejection when making the first move has so long been the man's responsibility.
Everytime I've made the first move, I've been rejected. It's not that shocking since I've only done it a few times but it has started to seem pointless. I guess it hurts even more when you finally get up the courage to go against the norm and make the first move and then you're shot down. I know that I shouldn't get rewarded just because I force myself to do something men have to do all the time. But making the first move gets more scary each time I get rejected. At this point, it kinda doesn't seem worth it.

Well I'm a girl and I always make the first move. It's pointless to sit around and wait for a guy. I encourage all women to try. Men have to get rejected on a daily basis, and it's only fair haha.
But also I do see where girls are coming from. A lot of guys at my high school would make a girl feel horrible when he would reject her. Well maybe because there was a LOT of dicks there haha😂🤦🏻♀️
I feel constantly judged by men unless they show otherwise for some reason. So if they make the first move, I know I won't be rejected
they can and sometimes do. It takes a bit of confidence on their part and a lot of guys are intimidated by that. in this day and age it should be more accepted but it still is not. For me it is not intimidating. in fact I find it refreshing. I just don't have a lot of time in my life to chase them anyway so I welcome the certainty this offers but they are few and far between

"men are supposed to make the first move/it's the mans job" my ass.
There are some reasons why some girls don't make the first move including but not limited to:
- shy, fear, emotional barrier
- laziness, entitlement - none of which you want to have in your girl.
- possible social stigma
- may have given up
- women have a steady supply of interested men asking them out. So why should they?They can but they dont want to. A woman can just exist and have as many guys as she wants. While if a guy doesn't make the first move each and wvery time he will die alone. If you had bread delivered to you every morning, would you ever go out to buy bread?
It's only because a girl feels more secure if a guy asks first it... that he really likes her that he tried making her his before someone else would , that he couldn't wait... you can't change biology to geography I mean a male specie is suppose to chase and make steps for his female to follow... if not it means that the guy is not worth it
Usually girls that chase and make first move those relationships do not last longer very rareI'll make the first move if he shows signs of interest. If not, then I move on from him.
Plenty do.
But those who don't likely resort to inaction either because they're shy/afraid of rejection, or because they were conditioned to; according to some, it isn't befitting of a woman to make the first move, because "they must be courted by the man". I, just as you likely do too, think that's full of shit.Dear ladies, if you make the first move on me then mad respect. o find it awesome and I think women should totally be free to make the first move.
Because you're a gentleman. Gentlemen move mountains to get what they want and never sit around idling, waiting to settle for little to nothing.
I think it is Supremely sexy when a woman makes the first move. By all means... please do! There is something so attractive about a woman who knows what she wants and takes the initiative to get it.
Some girls lack confidence or are shy, just like so mean do :/ I'm trying to approach guys more :)
Girls, you ask for equality. If you ever want a gleamer of the ideal, please do this more.
Maybe they don't feel the need to, due to what they think about guys and they're desperation/confidence. But they end up regretting their false opinion men.
Girls can't make the first move because it's a social stigma. It's not something that's expected, and is based off of the "fact," that guys have to do it first; But seriously? Do it anyway! some of us guys LOVE it when the girl makes the first move!
Because they know they'll always have guys making the first move so there's no need to.
i do it once but the result it was bad, in that moment i lost my confidence to do it. And i think that the girls think about all the bad things that can be happen
because most girls are entitled and most men settle for less.
Because they are raised to be cowards. the way it's always been.
They can but they're just so used to being coddled and worshiped by society and sheepish men
they usually get scared and PISS THEIR PANTS when they move first
of course girls can, the time and place should be appropriate though.. :)
Ya it would be really nice if it happened more often
