Girls, Ladies how strong is the need for a guy to ask you out (see description)?

What I mean is say a guy finds you attractive. He would ask you out but he figures you're out of his league
I know some are going to say he lacks confidence. But he doesn't. He's quite confident. But that doesn't change the fact that he doesn't ask because he figures there's no point in asking.
Is this
1. a turnoff, deal breaker whatever you want to call it.
Or 2. do you put in more effort to show him you want him to ask you out.
Or 3. Do you just take the bull by the horns and ask him out.
Turnoff, dealbreaker
You put in effort to show you want to be asked out.
"Fortune favors the bold" I ask him out
