Some ladies care.

Extraversion is one of those qualities that, while not all-encompassing, can simply make life easier. You see it with all sorts of traits.

As an example: you'll see men talking about how "all women want is money". And it's not true. But with all other factors being equal, it certainly doesn't hurt to have a few bucks. That broke guy might be pretty awesome...but he's no more likely to be so than a rich guy simply by nature of being broke. It's the same with an outgoing personality..shy people CAN be fun, but they're no more likely to be fun than an outgoing person simply because they're shy.

Undoubtedly, there are those few outliers on both points (this is the internet, after all) who will insist otherwise. But they'll represent a very loud, yet very insignificant minority.
Great post, rep.

This is pretty much the way I feel, but as another poster said below this post, I should give it a chance and I will (I won't be getting my hopes up though).

I never said that some didn't. What I said is that MOST women either don't understand OR don't care. The ones that do both are the ones that will have the most success, and least likely to come on here complaining that "men don't notice the signs".

OP if your preference is to go for girls that are go getters then it is simple, just don't go for those girls that hesitate in initiating contact.

Each person is different. Some might be turned off if a person of opposite sex comes across as too forward. Personally I don't believe in role stereotypes. Women should be free to do what they wish to do and same holds true for men.

I agree with your first sentence. I'm not sure what role stereotyping is, but if you think I do that I would say I do not. I like a woman that is not scared to make contact, that is all. I've thought about this now for the last few days and my conclusion is that I shouldn't waste my time, because in the past I have already done so.
