yes there is nothing wrong just by saying hi, it just suck when there is no reply I would always answer back. It's not polite not to. I am a bit on the shy side(I think a lot of guys are) when it comes to starting up a conversation. So it is appreciated when the lady does. |

I am quite shy so I would prefer that the woman would make the first move. However, on the excruciatingly rare occasions when a woman has taken the lead, my brain shut off and I became a large lump of pudding. Therefore I have no idea what their interest was. Rather irritating really.
Where I am from there are only two places to meet women (besides WalMart) - bars and church. The bars here rarely have live music, which means they generally attract only the local barflies, 99% of whom are male. And hitting on a woman during the sermon somehow doesn't feel right. All this means is that my opportunities are limited. So I have forced myself to say, "Hi" and smile on a few occasions. All I have received in return are the obligatory polite responses expected in general society. These responses are not nourishing for one's confidence or ego. I have yet to determine which 'method' is better for me. I sincerely hope women do not stop making the first move. |

I think at times thats part of the problem with some women. Some expect the guys to do everything and knowing that. There going to run into all kinds. Now if they were more open minded and out going to meet what ever they are looking for. There might not be as much of women coming on to these forms and saying, is there any real men out there. I know it goes both ways because men do it to about women. I met a couple women that are never on the forum and still to this day after not being on here for almost 5 months. I can email them and pick up where we might of left off. Ladies, if you want more out of a man. Sometimes you have to learn how to give.

For me unless I see something posted in a forum that I would like to discuss, I don't contact guys first simply because I don't go to the search option and hunt for guys, I am not a profile peeker unless someone says something in a thread or peeks at me first then I may or may not go look. I have been accused of not being here to actively seek someone and in ways that may be true but only to the extent that I am old fashioned about the way I prefer relationships. ~shrugs~ this may explain why I am single
 I am not in the least stuck up or unfriendly and I do answer all my mail. I just had rather be the pursue-ee to being the pursuer.

are you expecting that a woman would come to talk to you 1st
don't really have expectations.....I'm not shy about going up to a woman first.......but if they are really interested, i would think they wouldn't just sit back and hope against hope that I make the first move.......If you want something ya gotta go for it & take the chance I guess, I'll take my chances everytime they'll come to me! Thanx

I some times give, but there is no answer back, thats why you back again and try just to hide or just hold back for a little.

what do u think? are you expecting that a woman would come to talk to you 1st. I don't like that idea still, I feel like I m still a little bit old fashion. It is a free world. We want to be treated equal then we need to march forward with it. |

Even in this world of "equality" we are supposed to have, I still think that it's a mans place to approach a woman. So a woman shouldn't approach you first? Oh please do tell.

The experts at approaching people and making friends...believe it or not are..(drum roll please)....kids and teens!
They have approaching and communicating down to a fine art .They also don't give a rats a** who starts the conversation and they have a friend in less than 5 minutes. If kids don't have a problem talking to both genders...then why do adults have a problem with it? |

I doesn't matter to me in the slightest.
I'm not shy, but I also welcome a woman who will approach me.

If someone posts something that catches my eye, or views me & has an interesting profile when I check it out, I have no problem with emailing and saying hello. If they don't reply, oh well - no skin off my nose, lol.
It's not like I'm walking up to a complete stranger and putting my tongue down his throat...it's conversation, and starting it shouldn't be left entirely to either of the genders. |

I guess that is the reason why so many people nowadays is involve on online dating there is not much harm on not having a reply or being ignored. I just feel the same.! |
