One of my male friends noticed my engagement ring before my girlfriends did! I guess ever since then I just expect all men to notice my rings and therefore know that I'm married with out me having to say anything. Well, that definitely has not been the case. Then again - even after I have told some men that I am married (or engaged or involved - as was the case previously) they were not deterred. Like I said - I'm a very outgoing, friendly, flirty woman - I know sometimes I might accidentally send out "signals" unintentionally.
A lot of men do not care about a woman's marital status. They are not relationship seekers. There are also a lot of women who are actually more attracted to married men than they are to single men.
Why should *he* have to ask *you*? If you send no signals that you're interested, he just.. won't do it (if he can read signals, that is. If he can't, it makes no different.)
Lots of girls complain that a guy won't ask them out, and they forget that we basically communicate in different ways. Subtle hinting and signals and difficulty deciphering it is a well-known problem. be proactive and ask him for once, he probably would be very pleasantly surprised.

Youre right. I just don't know how to do that. Maybe I should just try asking for once. But how do I not psyche myself out with the rejection possibility?

Millions of men face that.. every day. Seriously.
That's something I still haven't figured out a clear answer for myself, so I'm honestly no help there.
My question directed at women. But men can also share the signals you received from women that gave you the courage to make a move and ask her out.
My other question to women is if you like to be asked out unsolicited or would you rather send a signal that shows your interest beforehand?
Usually just eye contact and a smile is all it takes, but really, who the hell needs a signal? If you're interested in someone, approach her for God's sake. The worst that she can do is say "no."

Millions of men wonder about the same thing every day, so be kind because there's not a special gene they have that makes them more immune to rejection.
They hang on to the douche bag till they snag another unsuspecting guy. As soon as they get a bite from the new guy they dump the DB and swing to the new guy. They will address to the new guy they dumped their boyfriend in hopes the new guy will accept and ask her out.
It is kinda like a well-arranged high wire act. Swinging with one swing and when the new guy comes along her arms are out and as soon as he gives the signal with his arms out as he swings saying he will catch her she lets go of the old swing right on through the air to the new one.
Pretty slick till the new guy backs out at the last minute. Hopefully not while she is in midair.
Hey, they say not to burn your bridges until you've crossed them.

Exactly. Women proclaim they can do everything a man does and we can see women in politics, leading a country, leading a company, representing a country in sports, in the military, pursuing a career, etc. but when it comes to relationships they are not brave enough to take the initiative, ask a stranger out, etc.
"What if I get rejected?...What if I get my feelings hurt because he said no?...What if people find out that he didn't accept to go out with me?..." come on, if men can deal with it then you can deal with it too. Shake the dust off and move on.
