I do it to leave an impressive lasting impression.

My question is does it really matter as long as the end result is eternal love.

if we dont analyze then anything and nothing wont matter at all just the happiness that being together brings :thumbsup:

I always like making the first move when playing chess....

Not so much in checkers though...

Lol..... and when two of us are reaching for the last donut on the plate... I always offere it up to the other person first... it avoids that whole grabby grabby thing...lol

there is no definite right time then? not even a hint when you have to be the first to say hello? not even a clue when you have to put your own guard down? no sign when you have to be the first one to say you care or vice versa?

What do you mean by "first move"?

If it's to make first contact, it's quite simple: Woman has to give the guy a sign that she's interested first. This was true in the "Scarlet O'Hara" day (Gone with the Wind) and still is valid today.
You have to let a guy know you are interested in him so he knows the chances of making a fool out of himself are very slim. Yes, male egos are far more fragile than females, believe it or not.

So if you see a guy you like and he happens to look at you, even if it's briefly, smile at him. Guys are thick, and will think you are smiling at someone else, so you'll have to do it again. Keep the eye-contact and smile. Hold that eye-contact for preferably 10 seconds, which feels like eternity. But if you do that, the guy will know you are smiling at him and not the bloke behind him.
If he doesn't look at you and you like him, you can say hello. Or ask a question, for instance, "I don't know what coffee/cake is good here. Can you help me out?"

Best not do that when you are with friends, because then the risk for him is too high. If you happen to not like him, he'll feel like an idiot in front of you and all your friends. And one of your friends could even make a nasty comment, making him feel even worse.
So best to do this sort of thing on your own or after you walked away from your friends.
Remember: only 10% of men are confident enough to just walk up to a girl and see if she's interested, regardless of her giving a sign or being with her friends. Only 10%.... The rest won't, so you'll have to help them along a wee bit.
Smile or say hi and then let him be a man and do the rest of the work.


Crystal I love this, thanks! And I didn't realize that about only 10% of men being confident enough to approach you. Sure makes me feel a whole lot better than I did when I figured they just weren't interested.

I know, I was quite shocked as well when I found out. I think we are all given the wrong idea, based on movies and novels maybe? The 'macho heroes' usually just go for it.
Somehow most women think men will do the work without her having to do anything. But that ain't true, it never has been.
In olden times the damsel 'accidentally' dropped her lace kerchief in front of the man she fancied so he knew he could safely pursue her without getting rejected.

Men need rejection-protection, meaning you drop your kerchief, which these days is smile, say hello, ask his help or whatever.

So the other day when the grocery guy wanted to push the cart to my car (well, my bike...I always ride my bike to the store), then I should have let him instead of saying "I got this, I'm on my bike", Right? Especially since he knows I ride a bike, silly me slaphead

It's not THAT someone makes the first move that matters, it's how and why they do that determines how things go.

And that's a matter of taste, too. Some people, both male and female, seem to like the most base and crudely direct methods I can imagine, verging on assault. Others are at the other end of the spectrum, with "moves" so subtle that anyone without the exact right focus, wouldn't even be aware that they occurred. Most seem to like something in between.

Yes!! It's the feminine thing to accept such things, to allow the man to do the masculine thing and to help you, do things for you. A man needs that in order to feel like a man, to feel happy.
It's just that we women have all been brainwashed to not accept those gestures and to want make clear in every possible way that we can do it ourselves. Many so need to prove to themselves and the world that we are tough. Strong. But that's not feminine and doesn't allow a man to be a man and give to you.

Good thing is that you can use this type of event with non-dates to practice that 'muscle' so that when you are on a date it will come more naturally. It takes time to deactivate these 'programs' we been brainwashed with you see. I still s(rew up myself regularly, hihi. But I'm making progress. Thing is, it feels really really good to accept it. Which comes down to accepting the masculine and embrace being a woman.
Do make sure yo show genuine appreciation. Doesn't have to be over the top, but do express it.
