in Chit-Chat
And I mean that as in personality.

I'm single. Super tall girl so I intimidate the crap out of men, apparently. But if see an attractive girl that you want to take out, why not just ask? Stop being so damn shy! lol

That's my "rant"...

    Got a Girlfriend. But when I didn't I was still to shy to just walk up to someone and ask.... Still have a hard time striking a conversation up..

    Eye contact goes a long way with opening the door for a guy to ask. Sometimes you just gotta crack the door lol

    Because rejection for guys sucks as bad as rejection for women.

    Why don't you ask a guy out?

    Anyone can be an E-thug/E-pimp over the internet. Gotta do it in person, thats when it counts.

    if he's not asking could it possibly be that he's not interested? And, if he is interested & not asking... he lacks confidence. why would you want to date that? the right one will ask.

    reminds me that being single can sometimes suck.

    good luck!

    Besides the common answer of "I have a SO" or "because rejection sucks for men and women"

    Try this, Women send rediculously crazy stupid signals that no one, except for maybe their best friends understand. This is a Diverse world with anything from eye contact to a brush of the hair, or even a giggle in your direction could mean anything...

    IE Eye contact=

    What he is thinking: Shes either digging me or thinks im looking at her and its freaking her out.

    Brush of the hair: pretty commonly used, Usually means I wanna get this freaking hair outta my face. Not COME OVER HERE AND TALK TO ME GUY!

    Giggle in your direction: Well this usually is good, But how many different types of giggles are there? It could be he is cute lemme show him im witty and quirky and stuff *Giggles* Or look at that freak! he thinks he can get with me *Giggles*

    For me however I have a huge set of "insert here" I dont care if a girl rejects me because im start funny and successful... Her loss not mine!

    So what you are saying is you don't put out on the first date? Since you are old fashioned ?

    You're right. This hot girl intimidated the *kitten* out of me at the bar the other night, my friends kept telling me she was looking at me all night but I just couldnt make my move. :sad:

    Not all guys are smart, funny, or successful. Maybe it takes a combination? I personally have always had the confidence to persue what I want in life. But then again I had a great male role-model that showed me what it was like to be a good man and to have alot to offer. My father is an amazing man. But now I have taken his teaching and use them and apply them into my life and made myself better!

    I mean this in a gentle way but "being old fashioned" about not making an approach of your own is another way of saying "I fear rejection, so you make the first move and I will decide to reject....or not."

    Double standard.

    You can't have it both ways.

    Take the initiative or stop complaining.

    Funny only gets you so far. I don't do lines. But I there are a couple of times I walked up to someone and tried to start a conversation (which I am damn good at) and she looked at me like I just handed her a moldy fish. I show no fear in talking to someone so this was based on looks alone.
    Have that happen a couple of times and meh...

    I'm 6', and I have the same issue. Lots of "appreciative" looks...but no one with the guts to walk up to me. I've been told multiple times I am intimidating. But geeze.

    Pahaha, I was about to say... I know some pretty ballsy guys. My husband is one of them! I'm pretty sure only a select few would have the confidence to date a woman taller than them.
