    I like some assertiveness, but don't like pushy. Just be honest, and be yourself.

    Guys nowadays have balls made of goop. No confidence or courage. I too am at fault of this.

    Above you can speak for yourself.


    To answer the question personally am in favor of a woman that is assertive.

    A confident woman is very attractive, be as forward as you feel confident enough to be :happy:

    But confident = not nice according to another thread: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/504784-to-all-the-nice-guys
    Does this apply to women also?

    well... i'm not exactly a man but i thought i'd put my two cents in lol when i started dating my boyfriend, he was really shy and i had to be the forward one. i knew we had a lot in common and i was confident i liked him and that he was also interested. he just was afraid to make the leap. so i made it instead and initiated hanging out. but eventually you've gotta make him make a move. tell him you'd love to hang out again and it's his turn to come up with the date. you can make it a playful challenge. that way, he knows you are interested but he also knows that he needs to make some sort of move. good luck!

    Some people will tell you what they want and others will take it.

    Wayne Gretzky said it best " You miss 100% of the shots you don't take"

    It goes for men and women if they're not attracted to you it won't matter how forward you are with them. You're still gonna get shut down. With that said letting somebody know you're intrested is the easiest way to know if you have a chance or not.If you don't oh well life goes on, if you do good for you life goes on..

    I agree with this, although I'm not a man.

    If he's into you, he will like it. If he's not, he won't. haha

    See any men that I have talked to "in my real life" (haha) don't like it when the girl makes the move. Like if they want to date her, they will ask.

    I too have NEVER asked a man out, don't know if I could .. lol. I don't envy men with that whole situation. But I guess if no one ever asks ..

    I am fairly sure he is interested. He often texts to ask how my night is going etc, and on Saturday night texted me for over 2 hours. We are going on our third date tonight, and he has alluded to needing "dutch courage" a few times! As frustrating as it is to have such a shy guy, it's also quite sweet and refreshing too.

    Would rather have a woman cruising in 5th gear, than fumbling between 1st and 2nd gear.

    Be up front, honest, genuine, and forward. SPEAKS VOLUMES!

    <--- BIG fan of women who are assertive and go after what they want. For me, that's a HUGE turn-on. And even if it's someone I'm not interested in, it's a great ego boost.
