When I was single I put forth effort to be approachable but I did not approach men for the simple reason that I never needed to. I am not attracted to passive men so they were simply not on my radar.

I'll add that I see nothing wrong with approaching men. I might have done it myself under different circumstances. Circumstances that I can't imagine, but you never know.

I have always preferred making the first move over a woman making the first move. How is that insane?

The opposing opinions from one are just usually more than a few minutes apart, that's all.
I think you can appreciate a woman who stands up for herself and goes after what she wants but but being asked out may just not be your thing but that doesn't make it inherently wrong that a woman does it? Am I insane?

I believe in to each their own. Some men like being asked out by women, and other men (like myself) don't like it. It doesn't make it wrong it's just another preference.

I don't have a preference for either. I could approach and ask women out, at the same time, she could ask me out.

Being asked out may not be my thing? Why wouldn't it be? I don't know what you're asking here, I never said you were insane, I was commenting to another poster. My opinion is: do what ever is best for you, don't be someone you're not.

I was agreeing with another poster that 2 opposing views from the same person, in a few minutes is insane, just nothing new here.

Seems like his response was meant for another poster.

Thank you, I get that a lot, or some hostile comeback totally unrelated. Not in real life, though.
