Stop thinking about it so much.

Message him if you want to and whatever happens happens.

That's the mark of a true player. If you fall for that, clearly, you're out of your league.

They're not, or they would.

I agree; early on, just contact someone and, if you do most of the initiating, so be it (so long as they reciprocate and are free to get together). After you go out a few times, there should at least be some initiation (of texts, emails, requests to go out, etc.) by the other party or it's a BRIGHT red flag. If, after going out a few times, they're ONLY responding to your texts, requests for dates, etc. and do not initiate dialogue at all, it's over.

I strongly recommend you read "He's Just Not That Into You."

Why do I always have to message the guys first? Doesn't that show that I am desperate, needy, etc.
Yes it does, and apparently you are.

Next question?

Question for the guys: How should women respond to winks/pokes/nudges/high-fives/likes?

I think a woman should return the same if she thinks he's interesting/attractive.

Also: EVERYONE CALL PHILOSOPHIZER'S NUMBER BEFORE HE TAKES IT DOWN.
There's also the middle ground where a guy sends an obvious stock or form message that he sends to all the women he writes to.

why does it make a woman look desperate if she does the initiating but not the other way around?
