I agree with you it's better when the man approaches. Me personally, I wouldn't approach a man. Men have no issues going after what and who they want. If he doesn't approach me then he's not interested
Im fine with either or. I’ve not asked for a guys number before and regretted it because we were both shy and I don't know i just felt things wouldve progressed more had i at least made the move
@DreamLife7
What are saying is not true. I've passed on approaching several women whom I was very interested in. Why? Because they all did NOTHING to show me they were interested in me. So why would any guy bother? The days of just showing up are numbered for women.
@spartan55 I don't want an insecure man. I prefer them confident, charismatic, intelligent, and with a sense of humor. If the man can't approach me, I'm not interested.
@DreamLife7
You are either ignoring or not grasping my point. It has nothing to do with insecurity or confidence. Not sure why you mentioned charisma, intelligence and a sense of humor since the debate is about approaching. Let me ask you, would you approach someone who showed zero interest, or someone who clearly did? I think you know the answer.
@spartan55 I'm not ignoring just saying a man who is masculine and confident goes after what he wants. He has no doubt in his mind of whether the woman he wants is interested in him.
@DreamLife7
Spoken like someone who has rarely of ever had to face rejection in their lives.
No doubt in his mind? What kind of crap is that? You can be the most confident guy in the world, but once you've face rejection enough it's not unreasonable to expect a woman to show interest before expecting to get approached.
@spartan55, then you're not confident. I'm not understanding what you're trying to prove?
It has nothing to do with confidence.
I notice you ducked my question about which guy you would approach before. Smh. Proves my point.
@spartan55 I gave you my answer and your self esteem is low.
@DreamLife7
No you didn't answer it. Because you know how it would have made you look. So you chickened out. You don't know anything about me. Low self esteem...😂 😂 Yeah okay. 👌
Ok..
No, I will never ask for anyone's number on social media or even otherwise.
Will you ask for their number if you initially met them in person (all social media aside)
Yeah I am old school just getting her number. I don’t really use social media but if she wants to use kik or instagram or some other social media it text I could do and have done that.
I see
Girls ignored me because i don't have Instagram.
I offer contact info like phone number or Discord.
Spyware sucks.
I do the same and guys ask for snap and get so annoyed that i dont have it and literally ask me to create one. I refuse and they lose interest which shows me they likely just wanted nudes or to hookup
I am old so I would ask for the phone number. I would not use social media.
Im not old but im not young and i’d still agree with you
I would prefer they don't use social media at all.
I fully agree. Its a turnoff to me if they do
none of these I would ask them out on a date numbers and thingscome latter So jump in feet first and ASK
When someone asks for a date before anything else, i definitely say no
then you lose out on them to be taken out for something must come first to see a movie or a band or just coffee and food, in my book seeing them is first text and email is all fake makeblieve humbug@@}}~~:
I usually ask for their Facebook first before we hear each other’s voices.
Im talking about if you met them in person (not online)
I always ask if they have Facebook. If they don’t, we exchange phone numbers so we can call or text.
If I was in the dating scene I'd ask her for her number because I'm old school
I’m old school too and would rather be asked that
It takes too long to get to know someone through text. It's faster to talk
I dont text anyways. Its either call me or come see me
Ok. I'm on my way
I'd exchange telephone numbers. I don't really do social media.
Yea me either
I’ve always asked for social media first. Instagram or snap chat.
Whys that
So I can stalk it.
😂 At least you admitted it.
I'd let them ask, I don't like to ask. I'm an introvert so in the first stages I prefer texting. But asking for a snap is major 🚩
Glad others see snapchat is a red flag
I would ask for her number if I like them.
So, may I have your number?
No, no just kidding.
But seriously "you got snap"?
Smh…
Sorry for that, I had to do it.
The opportunity was on a silver platter
I ask for Facebook, because it's safer than giving out a cell number.
Depending on how much of your info is all over social media
Social media even if it's just friends. I want to know more about the person I'm planning on spending time with.
Thats what questions are for. can't be as fun stalking their page to learn about them
Theirs a million ways to accomplish the same task.
Yea but not all show true interest and effort
Ill ask for the number but that in no way means I'll get her I first build a face to face conversation.
Very smart. Wish more would try that instead of just walking up to you asking for it
Face to face is much better honestly.
Take it to FB. xxoo
Do people really still use that
I do 🤣. Unlike most people, I prefer Facebook to Instagram... and Snapchat too. Never really understood the purpose of Snapchat Streaks 😂
@DizzyDesii Of course. I have 5000 friends and Over 2000 followers plus Book groups I do for my Published Book plus I do Cooking groups with people. It is Social Media. xxoo
I’m just genuinely asking because i never cared to have any of the above
Social media probably
Whys that
Just feel its too personal asking strangers for their numbern
Personally i’d give my number before i give my last name. You often need the persons last name for certain social medias
Not mine, my insta is just my first name. I wouldn't give them my fb
But, luckily the guy im interested in atm already knows my last name. But he's not on socials anyway lol
Yea the dude i talk to is on facebook and who knows what else. I never asked for any of it since I dont have it. He asked for my number after a week of knowing one another and we went from there.
The reason y id struggle with numbers is cos i message too much n i worry it will put them off lol
Oh yea that can get annoying if its spam text 😂
Its not spam i just have a lot to say😂😂
I don't do social media. So phone nbr.
I dont either
Tbh. I don't ask people out
