Haha chasing hurts...if u feel me let me knw I’ll will let u knw how feel...period.Gender balance/50-50.Deal

They avoid being seen cheap..but it's not the way

In socirty, it's been taught that men are the hunters. I'm not afraid to make the 1st move, I'm not shy nor scared of rejection.

Yes you are right

I don’t chat first because I ended up being ignored.

Most times whenever we make the first move they do get upset or we don't get their response

well with an empty profile and a fish lips picture i think no answer is the response

In real life, and on sites, there are at least 2 stages of the game with possible rejection. Looking at someone real from a distance or at a photo, you either like the visual or you don't. Decision 1, advance or retreat.

Then the other person may start communicating to you. Or you to them. Chat.
The first to chat is not always the first to be rejected.

Decision 2. So much to decide upon during / after a chat, eg. their voice, attitude, subject matter, knowledge, gestures, facial expression, attention to you, and much more.

The perfect body may have an irritating voice or bad manners or halitosis or a vacuous brain, etc. The expert website photoshop pic will probably disappoint in real life.

The perfect voice could belong to Quasimodo, and the brainiac could be socially awkward and too shy to talk to the opposite sex in person.
You don't know this until you meet.

Of course some rejections will occur at each stage, from first contact, to after marriage and kids.
It works both ways, chatting. And you can deliberately sabbotage and self reject, so the other person was - but is no longer interested.

Rejection is a fact of life - get used to it. I got rejected regularly for decades chatting young beauties, trying my lack of luck, and still do. Their loss.

I'd like women to advance their equal rights by propositioning men more often, and taking the rejection like a man, suck it up, and ask another one.
Don't be subtle and hinting, just say it. But don't ask attractive di..heads and then say all men are like that. Not all women are snooty gold diggers either.

Men and women both can chat first, and women love to talk, so do it.
Aim high and expect to get shot down, crash and burn, then do it again.
It's a roller coaster. Endure the pain, enjoy the pleasure if successful.

Im also old school, let the men make the first move.

I commend you and congratulate you on breaking those archaic stereotypes and gender roles! You say however that in response, guys used to get annoyed. Could it be that they are annoyed because they are presented with something unusual, and therefore uncomfortable? What if you followed through? What if When you approached a guy you liked and he got uneasy and annoyed, and instead of you backing off, explaining to him in a calm friendly way your stance? Stay persistent nicely. Chances are he'll warm up to you!!

There was a joke, but I'm not gonna go there....LOL

As for me, I'm a little bit on the shy side
and as Bob Dylan summed it up in song,
"The Times, They Are A-Changin'".

I think it's time for the girls to make the first move and do the chasing,
as I'm generally preoccupied with my music endeavors and other projects.

Last time I've been chased by girls, was back in my heydays
of elementary and high schools in the 1970's.
