There is someone for everyone.

My husband of 28 years is 2 inches shorter than me...and I like to wear heels too......
He took a YEAR to get up the nerve to ask me out. If I knew then what I know now..I'd have asked him out a lot sooner. But some girls WANT the man to do the asking. I have 2 daughters who are beautiful young adults and they will NEVER ask a man out. As the younger one says...."Grow a set!...If they want me...they'd better be ready to show it!"

^^ That's your job, not ours. If you view your self as handicapped in the dating world before you even start then just stay put. You will never attract anyone feeling sorry for yourself or harping on your weaknesses...quiet, short, shy....it's not cute, sexy or attractive.

Every pot has it's lid....even shortstacks

But why is it always the man who has to show it then? Why can't she show any intrest in a guy? I mean personally if I dated a girl and she never showed any intrest or took any initiatives I would stop dating her... I really don't get why women have such a superiority complex over guys, it's always the guy who has to earn their love, who has to pursue the women and stuff like that. It's like women think that they never have to show any intrest or love(if in a realtionship) and should only recieve love and attention without giving anything back.

"Women never" ... "women only" ... "why do they always" ... despite being told again and again that you're wrong.

Boring!

Here is the thing...

When you get some experience you will be able to read signs women give off.

Most of the time they are going to be polite and continue to move on with their day.

Sometimes though, if she likes you, she will make herself available. This I mean she is there in your area. She is making it easy for you to speak up and ask her something. A date, a question about something. It's your objective to see the signs and act.

I know when someone is interested or not. You should look around. There are probably women all around you twirling their hair and making eye contact and you are not even seeing it.

Hope this helps.

I would suggest not ranting on here when you are frustrated. Some individuals on here are easy to tick off. Some don't get past the surface.

Let me just point out that, that sort of statement is usually accompanied by a "god's gift" mentality, and neither the statement nor the mindset is attractive from my perspective.

Why would you be dating a woman who didn't show any interest in the first place?

I meant it as a response to "I LOVE PA", if her daughter thinks she never have to show any intrest or take any initiatives then why would any guy want to date her? Why would any guy want to date a woman who thinks she is god's gift to men? as "Chorizo" said thats just not attractive at all.
