It just depends. Some women who sit and wait, may not get approached. Or only get approached by predators, weirdos, or junkies.

Some, for some women, they either approach, or get nothing -or nothing decent. Or they can wait. It just depends. Some women swear up and down that they do not approach men, and that's it's never good for a woman to do so. But for other women, that advice will do nothing but guarantee they stay single. lol

For both genders, everyone can't operate the same way. What works for 1 person won't always work for another. Some people can pull off things and get away with things that others can not.

Like flirting. Some are naturally flirty, and it's very attractive. Others can not flirt to save their lives, and should avoid trying to go that route. lol

If waiting, orbiting, and other subtle things, don't work, may be time to get forward and blunt.

Can't wait for a woman to make a move because the majority of women are against it.

Eh many do it. Just not always mention.

Had a very good looking guy hit on me about two weeks ago.

I sat at a open spot at a bar next to him.I was there with friends. He told me I smelled fabulous. I said thankyou then he said he liked women's scents better than men's. He said he liked women's deoderant better because of the smell and it worked better.Then he went on how he likes women's lotion and used it.Next he said how he hates hair and shaves everything. He then moved my hand to his leg to feel it.At this point I was thinking this guy is a lunatic or sexually confused.

My friends died laughing at my responses. But mind you he was very manly, tattoos, muscles etc.

But very odd.

It's the same thing men say about women, the very attractive ones surprise you by being a bit crazy! Maybe all that attention has gone to their head

Oh I egged him on. I asked what kind of deorderant? Degree for women? Sure? Dove? Secret? He said yes to Secret.I replied:"Well cat's outta the bag."
He just smiled. My friends and the female bartender were laughing.

I asked him if he liked fruity lotion? And smiled.He said to your dismay, no he didn't.

He got the picture. But laughed.

Dude was weird.lol!

This sounds like my dad (LOL he keeps coming up in EVERY thread tonight!) did, or at least the part about shaving all the body hair and women's deodorant.

My dad wore women's deodorant. He didn't wear a lot of it, just enough to keep from having perspiration and getting odor. He said he didn't like the men's stuff because it was too strong of a smell, and that he didn't wanna smell heavily of the deodorant. Just enough to keep him from getting BO from sweating on really hot days.

He also used to shave his legs and chest. Men shaving their chest isn't that unheard of though.

I tried shaving mine when I was about 16 or 17, then it started growing back faster. So I then decided that it wasn't really that bad and didn't bother me much. Wasn't really worth the hassle.

There isn't much wiggle room for being a unique individual when you are out there dating. If you step even slightly outside mainstream popular culture, you will be judged as "odd" or "weird" and you will struggle more. Despite all the lip service we hear about diversity and "being yourself". It only holds true if "being yourself" fits into mainstream fashion about what that means. It's a tightrope.
