    If you want something to happen, you have to let him know you're interested. I don't think "pursue" is the right word.

    ___


    pur·sue
    /pərˈso͞o/
    Verb

    Follow (someone or something) to catch or attack them.
    Seek to form a sexual relationship with (someone) in a persistent way.

    Synonyms
    follow - chase - hunt - prosecute - track

    ___


    Kinda sounds like fun, though.

    I pursued my man...hard. He married my crazy *kitten* too. :D

    Not real sure what he was thinking there...
    :huh: :huh:

    I think most women prefer to not make the first move. I know I don't like to, but we live in 2013. Why can't a woman make the move if she wants to?

    No. If you really want something go get it. How silly to sit there and wait for a man to pursue you.

    This.

    Yes women should persue men. Now if we could only get them to actually do it for reasons that aren't completely shallow and superficial. Good luck with that though!

    dude, for reals, is there ANY subject about interactions between men and women that you won't throw a wet blanket on? i don't know what that chick did to you, but you got your bitterness dialed to 11, and it's harshing my mellow.

    everybody gets hurt at some point, you just have to learn to

    we are in a modern day and back in the day I pursued whoever and whatever I wanted for what I wanted Spyder and I were different we became best friends before we started dating and that was even aftewr I moved in with him 3 weeks after I moved in we started dating so it works both ways I guess but women should pursue what they want.

    In all the years I knew my husband I had never seen him chase a woman. He had set rules she needed to be his equal. So when I could stand up I pursued him. Been together 4 years now

    Pursuit is not the same as First Move.

    First move? It is very sexy when a woman makes the first move even if it is to give the OK for the guy to pursue her.

    I think a woman can and should make the first move if she see something she wants! It's just a matter of preference, really. I've done both, but I prefer when the man steps up. It's the romantic in me I guess! :-)

    I pursued my current boyfriend two years ago and he was extremely happy I did so. He was unsure if I was into him or not and was scared of being rejected.

    "Why must I be like that? Why must I chase the cat? ...nothing but the DOG in me..."

    ^^^Not sure why that jam came to mind. But I've always liked being the CAT! I've never been the persuer.

    ETA: I was not into my husband when we first started hooking up. He was supposed to be a one nighter. I guess I impressed him and he went into full blown possesive mode. He won me over :love:

    I dont think there is ANYTHING wrong with a woman going after what she wants - AS LONG as she knows the difference between pursuit and stalking! LOL Just sayin!
