And now you're kind of being a prick about it. No thanks, I'd put myself out there for work not for people.
Dude I'm just saying, if you take women rejecting you personally, you're doing it wrong, especially before you've even advanced past the first kiss.
If you get dumped on your ass three months in, maybe you need some self reflection. But because you didn't get the first kiss? Come on man, not a big deal to take personal.
I once dated a guy in college who "asked" me if he could kiss me in the most bizarre way.
We went to the movies and he asked me: "Do you want to kiss?". It made me cringe, really. I couldn't stop replaying that sentence in my head while I was kissing him. He meant a lot to me then ... Now looking back on it almost 4 years later, I find it quite bizarre that a man would ask your permission using such words. It's cute to ask a woman's permission but the phrasing is a conclusive element. It doesn't have to be cheesy but we careful what words you choose. This guy phrased his question very awkwardly!
I've said "I'm going to kiss you" just as a kind of heads up/feeler in cases where the girl is tough to read. Big difference between that statement and posing it as a question.
Not how the real world works man. Figure it out, or continue to struggle
I don't care how the world works. I don't do the guessing game. A woman can either tell me what she wants, or I'll find a woman who will. That's my stance on it smh.

Exactly.
It's all about how you say it. The guy who asked me said it and it wasn't awkward, and even if there was any doubt in my mind that he was weak and completely inexperienced in kissing women went out the window the moment we kissed!

Now to me, that's a bit awkward.
Why are you announcing it!?
It makes it seem like your announcing the grand entrance of the President or a US Dignitary.
Either you ask me, or you just go for it.
