I've already mentioned that I've done this in the past. Nothing good has ever come of me asking a guy out. Ever. I started asking men out at age 15. It got progressively worse from there. I've asked men out in three different states. It would appear that Men In N. Utah, S. Nevada, and SoCal prefer to do the chasing, and get bored easily when asked out. Or they get weird-ed out. I'm not even including the "you're such a nice girl, but I just don't like you that way" responses here.

The last guy I asked out vanished into the desert hills of Irvine, and buried himself in his work. I got no response at all.

I will wait to be asked out. Period. End of story. I might make it easier on the guy by offering my number, but the guy is doing the asking. If I never get asked out again, then fine.

How old are you? You act as if you've been doing this for 20 years with not so good results.

The catch is, it's a completely fine thing for you to do as a woman. But if you're a guy who won't ask women out anymore, you're SOL.

And, like you, if I am never asked out again, I'm already prepared to be a hermit.

I've been doing it for a good solid 10 years without any good results. I've had two dates come out of asking men out, and neither one went past date 2.

I'm still pretty crushed (way more than usual) after the last time I asked a guy out so I don't think I'm going to be doing it for a while.

Women are welcome to be girls and friends with me, even in the most heterosexual of manners and fashions in modern times and claim it is what girl friends should always be good for.

So what would you say to a man that said the same thing that you just wrote?

I'd tell them to give up, move on and get some hobbies. Which I've done.
