In response to: Just curious to find out if ladies online ever make the first move and contact a guy for a date or just to get acquainted?


I have made comments about men's profiles but I don't ask them out.

cristina: I do!

A flower doesn't hurt.
Sometimes it's just to make a joke. The last one was about his lovely poem.
One day I've sent a flower to a handsome guy asking him what he was doing here. The result was that his profile was soon deleted! I think he thought that I'd recognised him!


Scared him off did you? laugh

Nah.. I don't either, unless its a friend or someone I talked to before..

Of course.. How else would someone know that you're interested! I mean, guys and girls are equally able or responsible for showing interest in the person they want to get to know. You cant take it for granted that Mr. Right will just pop up!

Yes i have.


Why not? If i like something about them i will and have - not exactly proposing marriage and if they don't reply - so what...
If they do reply and conversation runs dry, not a train smash. If it's a bad move - delete.

Sometimes I do. Usually a flower just to say 'hi' or a comment on a thread posting.

There are some men on here who can't handle that though.

Yes but not to hook up as everyone is so far away. But if I think he's attractive or something in his profile is interesting or funny, I tell him.

I am not shy

And there is certainly nothing wrong with finding another new friend.

Im confused with some of the posts on here that say members only reply to friends, and people that they already know..confused

How can you MAKE new friends, if you dont sometimes put yourself out and make the first move? Does that mean that you always expect people to come to you first??dunno

Personally, I think its a Two Way Street..

drivenbysound: Just be yourself and have some humility.

Humor (timed right) is a good place to start. Women love to laugh, same as you and me.
