Guys, do you wait for women to approach you, or do you approach women? (Page 2)

[McKellar]

If a guy approaches a girl, that girl automatically gets creeped out, but if a girl approaches a guy all because he is her type,... obviously that's different, now isn't it? Pathetic & go figure.

[Avicenna]

If I am interested or even just curious, I approach without hesitation. She's welcome to approach if she's interested, but I definitely do not expect that.

[Avicenna]

It's definitely better to take the initiative

[JustTheTrue]

I approach a women. Women are literally shy and only a few tend to find an excuse to talk to you, but that’s rare.

[Louistruman19]

Usually I look for signals first. But i have done both.

[Louistruman19]

Follow up: Guys who approach generally are going to get more than guys who dont but their success rate usually will be low. Their success will usually will depend primarily on their physical appearance.

[MrMilti]

I never approached women and was never approached either.
Still going to get married in 7 weeks (we were introduced to each other by friends)

[DeltaCharlieEcho]

It's a little of both. I wait until I know someone is interested before I approach. But I'm also really really really careful about who I let myself become interested in

[InferiorElegy]

I used to approach, I used to do everything I could to get a date, nothing worked for me, so shortly after my 32nd birthday I decided fuck this shit, I give up and I haven't attempted dating since.

[Louistruman19]

Have you tried to improve your looks? And if so what methods did you use? Im asking this because its usually the main reason men get rejected. a lot of guys dont realise this fact. Most girls will a reject a man based off of his looks but give the reasoning of having a boyfriend, being busy, not available etc.

[InferiorElegy]

@Louistruman19 yup spent a lot of money on a hired stylist, she did everything she could to make me look good, my last attempt would be plastic surgery but I don't see that going well for me.

[OddBeMe]

I was lucky early on and had many female friends. So talking to them was never an issue. Asking them out was of course. But at least I was half way there.

[Shiningtempest]

@Extraterrestrial1999 I let her approach me because I want to be 95% to 97% sure she likes me.

[PupinTheTurd]

Holy shit, 34 guys wait for women to talk to them?
Do y'all ever get asked out?

[pigoat]

I wait for them but they never seem to show up

Rofl

[TienShenhan]

Voted A, but my current girlfriend approached me at a grocery store. That was my first clue that this one was way different

[IHateBeingaMan]

wow seriously? did she ask for your number first or ask you out first?

[TienShenhan]

Well the thing is that we matched on Tinder first but she had no pic of herself, it was just wildflowers so I didn't know what she looked like. She saw me and came over and asked if I was (my name.) I said yes and she said hers and shook my hand. She asked me if I wanted to get a drink at the brewery in 4 hours and I said yes.

[Wise4myage]

Due to Covid, I am not approaching any girls right now, but Id be single forever If I waited for girls to approach me.

[FriendlyEnigma]

Approaching random people for a date juat seems weird to me

[Browneye57]

There are dragon slayers... and then there are sheepherders.
Which are you? LOL

[Anonymous]

I am a bit egoistic. Find it difficult to approach woman.

[Dchrls78104]

I wait for women to approach me---even if I must wait forever...

[FrontierMan]

Usually neither, never had a girlfriend though. I'm hoping to ask a girl out after I meet them through a group or a mutual.

[just_legit1998]

I only make a move to women I'm really close with. But when it comes to approaching women in the bar, I don't.

[Hyouma]

I am hopeless at approaching women. Every relationship I've had she has approached me.

[Italiano312]

Staying single is the best thing for your career these days. Approaching seems like a good way to being framed as a sexist pussy grabber

[IHateBeingaMan]

c'mon, this still normally doesn't happen unfortuneately

[Slim57]

Neither I don't approach and don't wait for them to approach me because it will never happen

[DavidFox]

Both, but if i like someone why wait?

[BraydenC]

I only approach if I see they are interested in me

[anametouse]

Don't waste your time

[honestGUY45]

I wait, therefore I get the "scraps".

[FeministHater_]

the hos gotta approach me
TIMES UP.

[kraken007]

Depends on the situation, so both.

[Jack9949]

I can’t approach them. I don’t trust my ability.
