Search Results: asking for a girl''s number

I'm not asking if you think workplace relationships are appropriate. I'm only at that location for the summer anyway but this dude never says anything bad about me but I'm the coworker he talks to the least & when we talk he normally just talks about himself. He sometimes stares at me & if I look he'll look away. 1 time someone was asking about me & he said" why are you looking for her? I can do it." It's no secret I'm more liked but I talk to everybody & he only talks to the same 4 girls. We work at a 4 level school & he's only ever on the 1st & 2nd floors while I patrol the rest (we're security.) I've asked before if he has social media (knowing the answer) & he lied & said no even when I see him use them. I was telling him about my favorite YouTuber & I brought up that I can't send any links to him because I don't have his number so he gave it to me & said "I can give it to you for work." He used to say good morning when I would walk in but now he won't say anything unless I say it 1st ( this happened on Monday. Friday was when I got the number & I only sent the links with his permission & Monday was the same day he got offended by someone asking about me.) That day he really treated me like a pariah & he still kind of does but not as bad. He still says "have a wonderful night" & I showed him pictures of my kid (got brought up) & he said "cute" & "baby laughs are the best" He wouldn't mind dating a girl with kids but I don't know if that matters. He was in a bad relationship where he got slapped & I said "if it's any consolation I was in a abusive relationship." He said "no 1 should have to go through that. People don't understand that men can be in abusive relationships too." I don't know why he brought that up but he doesn't get staff emails & I don't either so I brought up that we're both misfits & he agreed. We don't disagree about anything.

Guys, Do You:

• Lose respect for her
• Think she's low-value
• Get turned off
• Feel emasculated
• Get the upper hand
• Consider it easy to manipulate her
• Think she's a loser
• Think she's pathetic
• Think she has low self-esteem
• Or dislike it...

... when a girl reaches out, asks you out, takes initiative, is clear and communicative, shows interest in a relationship or date with you, or getting to know you?

The poll is simple. Yes or no.

Hint: They don't believe you. You'll have to be very convincing. Why is it important/beneficial, in today's climate and society?
(Hint: #metoo, sexual harassment fears, gender equality...)

I know you have something to say about this. I know you've said it before, it's old news to you, but please say it one more time, this time addressing these bullet points, if you can.

The Personal and Societal Benefits of Girls Taking the Initiative With Guys in Relationships

Look at all those poll results.
Girls, want to know how to ask a guy out?

I may write another mytake about it, from a different angle. I tried encouraging and supporting. Next time will be something different.



Success!
"I asked! I asked him today and he put my # in his phone and we have been texting so we can grab food soon. I thought I would update, especially since a lot of you were happily shocked a woman wanted to ask a guy for a change. Was nervous but couldn’t have done it without your help & encouragement! 😊"
