My name isn't Alfalfa, or Spanky.....But I'm quite ok with her saying hi 1st and if that seems to go someplace, I'll ask for her number.

Not me guess I'm still a bit old fashioned. I could never g o uo to the guy first. Now smile from across the room and be a bit flirtatious yes

Old fashioned flirtathiousness is good, coy smile, that glancing flash of interest, and if that fails don't bother asking.laugh

That would be such a turn-on and a huge boost for our self-esteem

I always hear that a woman can't go up to a guy and say hi that a guy should be the one to do it or a girl can't give a guy her number the guy has to do it and i ask myself why? why can't us women be able to strike up a convo when we see someone we like? why does it have to be men that always make the first move?


there really isnt any law against it, so women can if they choose to

many dont choose to and many cultures dont consider it the most appropriate thing,, but its stil an individual choice,,,

its just like proposing, in some cultures , it is traditionally expected of the men,,, but it doesnt mean a woman cant make her own rules and do them herself,,,,

Let's be honest, there may be a small group of males attracted to the woman in control initially, the rest are turned off by it still. Seeing a woman do it is like watching a fawn trying to ice skate, though it looks cute it doesn't seem practical.

it's not about control, it's about taking initiative, expressing interest. i don't know anyone, male or female, that is turned off by receiving interest. it may not always be returned, but that is to be expected.

initially i was talking in the initiative, it always sets the tone for what you can expect. men think of this just as much as a woman does. where did i say people are turned off by interest? i never did. stop putting words in my mouth that aren't there.

showing initial control in the beginning is a not a turn off to a small group of guys. a shy group of guys may prefer it. not the guys who know who they are and who they want and wish to do the approaching themselves, as in be the aggressors.

if you read it you clearly didn't understand it. nowhere did i suggest you said people were turned off by interest. i made the statement and did not attribute it to anyone...

Whenever I have made the first move, it's never worked out. I don't make moves on anyone anymore lol

i read all 3 sentences of it. i bolded what you assumed i was saying which was wrong. that statement is wrong too, and most certainly not even close to what i was saying...

the only assumptions being made here are coming from you. you made bold the part where you think i was talking directly to your response, however it is a separate statement...again, my statement and not attributed to, quoted from or taken from anyone else.
