Guys would you think horrible things or think wow she's bold I like some one who is assertive?
Don't think, just ask.

You can't always have it your way but why wait for someone you are interested in to make the first move ? They might be thinking like you wondering if you are interested in him and what you would think if HE asked you out.

Life is short, make the most of it.

A secure, confident guy doesn't care who does the asking because that is very unimportant compared to the ultimate outcome, which is finding a great woman with whom he is compatible. An insecure guy is going to be worried about the insignificant detail of who asks whom at the expense of potentially finding a woman who is awesome.

Good job
as opposed to swan dive(aka pinhead) who took what two months and almost 200 pages, and probably STILL has not asked his intended out.

I agree

Plus I think the shock of a woman approaching especially out of the blue makes them all awkward and uneasy which is why they can panic and go into defence mode

She shot him down. She was never interested in the first place.

( And back to the harsh reality like a tonne of breeze blocks )......

Yeah who knows personally I think she was at first or in the least liked the look of him.... But his delay after delay after delay...... I think would have tested a monks patience hence putting her off

How can they sit there cross legged with tunics in the heat all day like that ? That must be some amazing level of meditation. I've seen them walking around in 85 degrees with full tunics on. Maybe there is a fan under those clothes keeping them cool.

I believe you can find an awesome woman by doing the approaching yourself or at least myself. I might miss out on some great women; But that is ok. I prefer to make the first move over being approached.

So, it depend on the kind of guy you want. If you want a confident, secure guy, go for it. If a guy has a problem with it, the will mean you've just screened out an insecure guy that you didn't want anyway.
>>>IMO <<< I'd say confident, secure men make the moves to make things happen in their life, especially regarding women. I think a woman (specifically- the type of woman that *interests* him) can start a man thinking in her direction.. While still allowing him to pursue her. ~ If/when a man is ready to bring a woman into his life, he will... . . . ... The 'insecure man' is so clueless & afraid of rejection he'll either assume the passive (-feminine) role and do nothing or pursue the wrong women simply to justify and perpetuate his own insecurities and failures.
