Yes, it's kind of weird.

Stop saying, "I'm interested in you."

Make it fun, cute and casual and EASY by just saying something like, "I heard about this really good Italian place. Wanna go there with me this weekend?"

Don't make it about her or "the relationship."

Some girls don't like the straight talk but I like. Something like "Hey, I was going to marry you 1.8.2018 so lets have our first dates tomorrow night". Of course he have to deliver it signed with his parents names which proves he is serious. And I will sue him if he is wasting my time

Not if you act like a date while on the date.

That's when you SHOW that you're interested instead of saying it. You show affection to her by being chivalrous, asking her questions about herself, and being interested in what she is saying.

End the date with a kiss and she'll know you're not trying to just be friends.

A man can let a woman know exactly want he wants from across a crowded room.

It's all body language, playboy.

No, it is not. It is also about they are able to read each other. I usually know what my dog wants if that is food, coddling or jogging but I have no idea what my husband candidates are wanting

Your dog speaks to you. He doesn't tell you what he wants with body language.

I'd like to meet this dog that's worth millions of dollars.

That's different. If a man is interested in me romantically, I never had to guess. I knew from the way he looked at me, held my gaze, the way he stood slightly in my space...these are what distinguish a friend interest from a romantic interest. Some men are afraid to let that part of them out, they are afraid it's disrespectful, or they are so afraid the girl might think they want (gasp!) sex, that they are so ambiguous about what they want it just naturally becomes a friend zone. Chemistry IS about body language, voice tone, all sorts of things that have nothing to do with the spoken word.


Simply saying "I'm interested in you, wanna get dinner?" is not going to change the dynamic, he needs to learn how to convey romantic interest without announcing it.


Joe, women KNOW men want sex, it doesn't offend us. You don't have to come off as asexual, in fact it is probably preventing you from not ending up in friend zone.


Note I am not saying be an a** or act like a playboy, but there is nothing wrong with letting a girl know from the very beginning by the way you look at her, the way you brush the hair from her eyes, the way you take her hand and lead her across the street, that you are interested in more than friendship.


Deport is right. I have had men make me blush without saying a word from the other side of a room.
