I feel like I'm always having to pursue the guy I want instead of him picking me... what's up with that? Why do I have to get the ball rolling? If you're interested then why not just make it known?

Guys - need to know whats going on up there in those noggins of yours.


Some guys are just shy. blushing You could try Yellows advice though. laugh

I've seen a bunch of guys on here say they're not making the first move anymore, for whatever reason. Others don't get hints and have to be flat out told that you're interested.

I've had to do the same thing. Once I let them know I'm into them, they get it.

Toned, tanned
Fit and ready
Turn it up 'cause it's gettin' heavy
Wild, wild Westcoast
These are the girls I love the most

I mean the ones
I mean like she's the one
Kiss her
Touch her
Squeeze her buns

I've never really had to "Chase" women, so I just don't pursue them often.

Shy? Intimidation maybe? I don't know, If I lived closer to you and isn't stuck in the loser phase of my life I would definably ask you out. flowers

Oh they get it once I make the first move but why do I have to? tears
I honestly know that this is not the answer u want, but I really believe that if a guy is into u he will make the move- attraction is such a subtle dance...what is the first move?

the first glance?
the first spken words?
the first hello?


once u both are in that zone where the attraction is a given IDK that it matters who does what next - but an interested man will make a first move of SOME kind

r u talking about the actual 1st date & who asks?

I think confident, more outgoing guys who are into you will make the first move. Some lack that confidence, though.

Take this site for example. Some guys have said in the forums that they won't even email a woman first. It's the same in real life. Some guys are just not confident enough. Or just too shy.

I'm more referring to the fact that it seems to me like even if a guy is interested he waits for some kind of green light from me before doing anything at all. Like ask me out or even just for my number. I'm not a flirty person it's just not part of my personality.

Do you like flirty guys or guys more like yourself? Just curious.:smile:

I don't like guys with pick up lines, but I do get all mushy for a really nice genuine smile.

OK, this is just from my own personal experience, but -- the few here who I've been interested in (and this was back in 2006-07, when I was new here) never responded to my e-mails.

There was a point when I told myself, "Myself, the reality is it's just as easy to be ignored not sending e-mails as it is to be ignored after sending e-mails. Actually, it's EASIER not to bother because then you can use that time to do something else more productive, like shooting metal ducks on Pogo or something."

I try to see the practical reality behind these things -- I get lots of e-mail here, but not from anyone I would be interested in dating. (I do respond though, I think that's just common courtesy.) But I have no intention of ever writing to anyone first again....it's a waste of time.

Ok, let's assume a scenario Myka. Let's assume that I'm about 20 min..from you and I got nobody else going and I have already gone out with you to eat your favorite artichoke dish. :smile:

If I really like you and we get a good convo going on about many great things and computers, then I would not leave from the date without telling you or asking you about when you are free again, and probably send you a message by the time I get home and ask you if you felt good and liked my company and I would be just telling you that we should check or weekly schedule to find those times when we would be meeting again. :wink:

I don't even own a pickup. I do have scratches on my van.
