Have you seen the new movie or read the book (He's Just Not in to You)? It's an interesting philosophy, don't you think?
I'm beginning to believe there's no point asking guys out anymore, because if they're interested, they'll do the work....call me old fashioned (I don't mind)...

"He's a shy type.And,it was hard at first
for him to open up to me but he did and,
we haven't been happier.What I found
so appealing was that he was truly genuine in
wanting to know me,for me."

Its true if he is into u he will try, but don't think he will keep trying if he doesn't see any coming from your side.

I do agree not to ask a guy out, let him make the move handshake

Fear of rejection pure & simple. Also I'm assuming you were a very good looking woman going by how good you look now. Guys are often intimidated by a beautiful woman, they think they don't have a chance, so rather than get led on or disappointed they just keep their desires inside, it's a lot safer that way.

I disagree. I think some are too shy to ask a woman out. I will flirt, and start with friendly emails, and see where things go from there when I am interested in someone. Moot point at the moment, since I'm not looking, but it's what I've done when I was looking, and it was successful enough.

I'm just starting to open up and talk to women more and I'm 41. I had a crush on a couple of girls when I was younger but would not ask due to fear of rejection and loss. (Can't lose what you don't have.)

Now I just don't care I'm middle aged and I'll be dead soon.

Thanks ooby... The most common response they gave is they didn´t think they stood a chance... the funny thing is that I have never considered myself any more than attractive or cute... never beautiful, so it surprised me when they confessed...laugh

The statement isn't entirely true.

I've fancied the pants off woman in the past and never ever asked them out!

Shall we say i regret it? That's an understatement as we were in two cases really good friends and were pretty much like peas in a pod.....

I do regret it, but then i have lots of regrets.

Now i am trying my best to live my life in a different way, i learned the hard way shall we say and have previously been "haunted" by "what might have been".

Now though, i cant see me changing, events have somewhat taken over my life, and well to be frank i have enough on my plate without worrying about whether i am asked out or meet anyone to ask out.

In short i have to much trouble on my plate!

I know that it used to be easier for guys to ask women out....nowadays us guys have to react right to everything a woman is looking for an a guy. Some women may be old fashioned and believe that us guys should still ask them out. Unfortunately there is so much that has changed over the years with so many things. Now most women are more into what guys can give them, what they make in the way of money, and don't care who they hurt along the way-I am one of these instants. I had dated someone who I was completely in love with...you mentioned that she had difficulty with bills for her place and we decided that it would help us since we were in love that we would live together to help each other out(she needed help a lot more than I did!!!). Anyways, when she had a bill come, I was there because we were together and felt it was our duty to pay it. I gave her money when she needed help,dinners or visits to the local pub, because I was old fashioned and believed a guy should pay for it. I did all of it out of my love for her, and nothing else!!!!I wrote that to say that it doesn't help being old fashioned, and if were interested, we will do the work? That really is the stupidiest thing I ever heard!!!! I'm someone who believes in love and true love but not that!!!! As a very smart woman said earlier here answering to the same question said that guys can have a crush on a girl and never ask her out because he didn't feel he could. How many more guys and girls could be happier now if that wasn't the case? Countless!!!! Most women make it more complex than it has to be!!!!!!

Geeze just cause someone is old fashioned and doesn't like to ask men out doesn't mean she expects a man to pay for everything OR that she wants his money...roll eyes roll eyes

Sooooo true! I'm believe in 50/50 most of the time.

Personally I believe if the guy isn't overly shy then he'll do the work and ask the girl out. However, this may not be the case if the guy is extremely shy, instead he might just show interest. This may of been the case with two of my past boyfriends who I ended up asking out. These days I don't bother though, as I'm a lot more stubborn! Plus I don't believe I'm that intimidating and definetly not a goddess! LOL

Thanks all of you for your responses and votes:-) I recommend watching the movie and/or reading the book if you haven't yet.
