Usually I would get close with some women within a group of friends.
We would party or do stuff together as a group, then eventually a few of them would ask if I wanted to hang out or go to a movie. Then we get closer and closer until we're basically living together.
Most Helpful Opinions
I accidentally clicked answer A while scrolling, so I might as well answer this. I'd say my answer is E/other, because traditional asking out feels too forced, and to me dating means already being a couple.
I'd prefer either just getting closer to a female best friend, or using a dating site to match up like its a job application.
Flirting or using dates as a way to get to know a person just feels too impractical.
I don't mind asking out on online dating platforms/someone I don't meet in my everyday life, but else I am too unsure about men saying proper no in case they are not interested. It is easier to move on when it is not someone I see often.
They ask me out, just because it usually turns out better for me that way.

I'm male and straight and I strongly prefer to make the first move.
I enjoy sweeping a lady off her feet, I don't see it as burden or injustice that I may be expected to fulfill that role as a man because I personally enjoy that dynamic.
Maybe I'm biased because I'm rarely unsuccessful in my pursuits, but that's my stance.I don't care; as long as we have good chemistry and they are a straight, monogamous, childless adult female who is sane and into me. I voted option C, but I doubt I'll ever meet a compatible woman again.
E. Other
I would just prefer women be honest with me. A woman doesn't need to ask me out. But she does need to make her interest that she WANTS me to ask her out clear. Women like to say that guys are scared. Guys are not scared (well some are lol)! But generally guys don't ask women out because THE WOMAN HAS GIVEN THEM LITTLE TO NO REASON TO.- u
Straight White male warrior Women can come to me and flirt
Male, black, straight. I would prefer they ask me out because I know what their honest intentions are. I am ok with either because it highly depends on who is the one with the feelings here. If she wants to date me, she'll need to walk up and have an honest conversation with me in person. No mixed messages or games. Straight to the nitty-gritty, if you will.
Well, no woman has asked me out and thankfully that did not happen because otherwise I would have refused politely.
My thinking is a lot different as compared to most men.
I am Asexual.
For vote I will choose D.Female, straight, I prefer to be asked out. I'm incredibly shy in this kind of situation and I am pretty oblivious when somebody takes a liking to me.
A male who has good character and can deeply communicate with me. We're going to have to get married if we want any intimacy, but he would have to propose to me first.
Don't make a move... risk losing out goes for BOTH men and women. But keep sitting around waiting... Might as well wait on Santa
I prefer they ask me out
Its always kind of nerve weaking to ask
I am a BiMale bi. I would prefer they ask me out, because that is a whole lot easier. But I usually have to do that.
Straight. I prefer to ask her out. When I am ready I will ask her out. I have had several occasions where she is confesses but I was not yet at the same point as her so it didn't work.
Straight male. I chose to be asked out. My dating anxiety makes it almost impossible for me to ask women out. I'm getting counseling for it but it isn't helping much.
I would prefer they ask me or show me they like me, but I don’t think I’m ready to date yet so they would have to be a pretty cool person
Straight male. Tbh i am chill with both. but i like asking them or impressing them first with skills or my hobbies. I do find it hot when some women approach me.
I'm an Asexual-Panromantic guy, and idrc whatever happens, happens.
male, straight i usually am the one who ask out but there was one girl who did ask me out first. I think it doesn't matter really👰🏻♂️❤️
Straight female in person or over text after talking for at least two days.
Voted C.
Either way.
Or I'd give her obvious hints. 😏😏Either is fine by me!
