How many times should a guy ask a girl out before giving up?

[Anonymous]

Sometimes girls play hard to get, sometimes girls do not know how to say no directly, sometimes they r not interested n do not want to tell u straight, sometimes they r afraid, shy or scared when a guy asks them out

Since most girls will not clue a guy in How many times should a guy ask before he gives up n moves on?

I think asking a girl out twice is great because if She rejects you the first time that's ok just spend more time with her and get to know her better and you can ask her out again at the time you feel is right but don't spend to much time thinking because she might not think you like her anymore when she has just begun to have feelings for you and might move on. And if for some reason she rejects you it's time to move on and trust me you will find someone better 😄

Good points thanks!!!

Some girls like guys that are persistent it shows them that you are actually interested. I get why people say just ask twice and you should ask more if you are really into the girl. Also keep in mind she may have been hurt before so she has a hard time putting herself out there. There are so many factors that need to be addressed before you actually ask her out.

Thin line between being percieved as persistent and not getting the hint. Its so hard to tell what is what. When some girls get asked to many times they say the guy is desperate, and when some girls dont get asked enough they say the guy does not care or didn't try enough. Is there any other signs I can look out for to know whether I should keep trying or just move on?

If she doesn't like the attention she will make comments trust me, just pay a little more attention

[Asker]

what kind of comments should I look out for?

[Jaz1295]

If she doesn't hesitate or keep you waiting on an answer just don't ask. Or if you over hear her talking to her friends about how she soeant like attention. It's easy to sspot

I also think, you should ask twice. A lot of girls will feel embraced to express their interest and let you know that they changed their mind (if they said NO the first time). Ask once and if she says NO, then see how it goes. If you feel she might be interested, ask once again. If it's a NO again - then let her be:)

I love guys that NEVER give up on me. Keep going after her unless she says your ugly or she's talking to somone else !

Goodluck

[Asker]

how long do u usually let these guys, that never give up on u, keep trying?

[RocketZ]

If I really like him not too long. But what makes me like them is the persistency, but only if I show a bit of interest or we have a serious convo.

If I show the guy I have no interest what so ever than that's the time he should stop and try another girl. Lol

[Ghosty]

Twice. If she changed her mind she may not have the guts to walk up to you and tell you: "Sorry I didn't want back then, now blabla happened and now I want..".

But give her some time in-between to change her mind. Enjoy life without her to show that you're fun to be with and don't depend on her. Then maybe give her a 2nd chance.

Just ask once, and be done with it. If she said 'no' once, its almost certain that her answer will ALWAYS remain 'no'. So you're better off looking for greener pastures, rather than wasting any more time with her.

give up only when you don't feel it anymore. otherwise there is never too many times, unless she is getting a restraining order against you:P

I tend to only ask a girl out once and I don't ask again because it's bad enough not getting a yes answer the first time never mind risking another no answer.

[MaskofInsanity]

Once. If she changes her mind she will tell you.

[Asker]

Smart!!!

[Forca]

What if she is shy?

[MaskofInsanity]

Even shy girls can say 'yes'

[ieatDaCake]

3 times is enough. Her loss.

[jennalee591]

I would say twice. No more then that though!

[Asker]

in your opinion, why would a girl say no the 1st time and yes the 2nd time?

[jennalee591]

Not all the time, it all depends on the girl and how she feels about you really. My current boyfriend has asked me out three times actually lol. I didn't say yes until the third time because I didn't know/talk to him much the first two times he asked me. Just get to know her more and more but don't extent the limit of asking her out more then two times unless she really seems interested and might just be to shy to say yes at that moment~!

[yaddayaddayadda02]

I would say once.
