Guys have a problem approaching because they are paralyzed by fear of rejection. We all know it stings and is not the most pleasant thing to happen to you. To get over this fear, you have to be a man and face it head on. Realize that EVERY man on this planet will get rejected at some point in their lives, its simly part of being a man. I try to embrace rejection, and congratulate myself when i do get rejected, because while it stings a little - at least you had the balls to go for it.

Yes should just go ahead and get shot down because apparently it doesn't matter whether the girl even makes herself approachable or not let alone be the one to initiate. He should just get shot down because apparently he doesn't matter and has nothing better to do with his time.
Well that just means they're probably not compatible anyway so who cares.
Confident but not cocky......dominant but not controlling.
I like a man to be a bit shy....at times.....not the little retiring type, but being a bit shy shows some sensitivity. Can't stand really cocky, overbearing men.......the English ones who talk in a very condescending manner with their nose stuck in the air.....yuk.
Yes definitely not cocky or controlling. I always say I don't mind my man taking the drivers seat, as long as he doesn't try to run me over.
Men who have that attitude where he thinks he can get any woman he wants instantly turns me off.

Not if you never ask anyone out and look at porn all day like me.
unless he looses your number and doesn't know your last name
This is the thing. In order for the guy to contact you, he has to actually talk to you, and then he has to ask for your number, or suggest exchanging contact info. If he can't bring himself to do more than make a light comment here and there, if that, he can't contact you, even if he's interested.
I have a different scenario. "If a guy is interested, he'll let you know he's interested." And the rest may be up to you. He'll either try to catch your eye repeatedly, and smile, or he'll make a passing comment as your paths cross in the gym, or at the end of class, or he'll have his buddy invite you to sit with their group at the concert, or he may initiate conversations several times. He'll make it very clear he's interested, one way or another, but he won't be able to bring himself to ask for your number, out of fear of rejection. With these guys, you have to help him along: help sustain the conversation, be friendly when you see him and initiate the conversation yourself, eventually you just ask if he wants to get together and do something sometime, or you ask, would he like to go for a cup of coffee and continue the conversation. Women who always wait for the guy to make the move may end up waiting for the rest of their lives. They may miss out on meeting their dream guy, because he couldn't take the big step and ask for your number.
men aren't afraid of rejection per se.. they're afraid of being rejected a certain way.. for instance if you approach a girl and she says she has a boyfriend.. whats there to feel bad about? its like asking shoe store if they have your shoe and they tell you its out of stock.
what men are afraid of is being laughed at.. or told some crap like "eww omg get away from me you freak".. which in my shoe analogy would be the equivalent of going up to the salesperson at the shoe store, asking for a size 7 EEEEE... and them responding with "wtf we dont carry shoes for mutant feet like yours you freak"
what guys need to know is that most if not all women won't laugh in your face or tell you to fk off.. hasnt happened to me yet. some will have bf's.. some will lie and say they have bf's. some will say they're not interested. grow a pair and get over it. its better to approach than to go on and on wondering "what if".
