I have a feeling this is one-sided, as men do most of the asking. I'm not saying it is wrong, I would just like to see some stats.

I don't count, but I've had quite a few girls ask me out. They haven't always been the ones approaching, but they are quite often the ones who offer to go out.

When I was an undergraduate in college it happened all the time. Since then...0. I can still get dates, but I have to do all the work; all the asking, take care of all the logistics, always push forward, etc.

I've always wondered why this is. It is almost as if all the women magically became less sexually liberated after graduating from college. Or maybe it is something I have done. It was like a sliding scale, with the most women asking me out freshman and sophomore year.

It is especially curious to me because back then as a freshman/sophomore I didn't have a plan, didn't care about doing well, shaved my head, never shaved my face, wore baggy clothes and silver chains, used improper grammar and had no table manners. Women would literally tell me that they were going to my room so that we could cuddle.

When I wised up, engaged in business deals, became clean cut, starting wearing suits everyday, and could afford to date as much as I wanted; I stopped being asked out directly. Female friends say I can come across as intimidating and not open to banter.

I really haven't kept count, but I put 6-8. I'd guess most of those were probably via online dating.
