For me it has been about 60/40. I asked 60 percent of the time and they asked 40 percent of the time. I think I do better when I ask as I don't look easy or wimpy to them!

I'm a female and he contacted me through a matchmaking site 11 years ago. If he only knew then what he knows now.

I am a female. I made the first move.

Hubby was repairing a water well. (I had NO idea what he was doing)

I could see he had a lot of expensive equipment on the job site.

I was tried of being poor.

So, I went for a little bike ride.

Right...I couldn't vote in the poll.

Females that let the guy make the first move couldn't vote either.
