I would make the move because usually girls don’t. So unless you wanna be waiting for ages, just bust a move ;D

“expect”? Why bother with expect.

If she hasn’t yet, and you want to, then make a move.

Why the hesitation?

For some reason, girls expect the guy to do the asking. A good number of the posts we get here are girls wondering why their crush hasn’t asked them out yet.

I’ve been asked out about the same amount as I’ve done the asking. It’s great when you meet a girl and she decides she likes you and is comfortable with it.

Not really. I’m fairly okay to make the first move once I’m actually in a relationship. I’m just really shy with people who I don’t quite know. Does that make sense? :/

So basically a girls job is just to make sure he KNOWS she’s interested? The guy I am interested in may be a bit shy. I do not even know if he is interested. How can I know as I do not know him?

No, that is not a girl’s ‘job’.
If he’s shy ..then ask him. Or make small conversation. If I REALLY liked a guy, I would ask him out, despite my shyness. It would just be really hard.

If you’re not quite sure on things, just talk to him. Get to know a little about who he is and vice versa.

in a very narrow set of humans then yes, this can work. But don’t let any “rules” stop you from going after what you want.

Can you try the age old method of saying “hello”?

This a mind trick that I seen work wonders over and over again. Imagine in your head that you were scoping him out for a sister, and you just wanted to see if he was good enough for her.

You would be a lot more bold, and more aware of his good and and not so good points.

A common tactic ( for girls older than Im guess you are ) is to send in a wing man to check him out. She find out if he’s single and not a tool, and she can do so with a clear head. Get a wing man!

let him go, he’s just a fantasy then. Look about for a decent guy closer to you that you actaully know something about and that you like.

Am I sounding like my mum? Wow.

Ok, so find out where Mr beautiful eats and bribe your way into a job there. Guys love to flirt with fodd providers ( it’s a weird freud thing ) and they are weakened when thinking of food.

I ask that, as I’ve noticed poeple want to date someone that has a quality they desire in their own lives. It works out well, but as a prelude, you could just start making your life more “full of life”, and I’m guessing this wouldn’t make you any less attractive to him ;-)

I was saying that if you are interested in a guy you don’t know, but the first thing you say about him isn’t looks/popularity/caring/etc, but that hes is “full of life” then you might want to get someof that good stuff your self.

It will attract him, and even if it doesn’t, then at least you are more awesome.

Okay, so do you really want to go out with some guy you don’t even know, find out that you might not like him after all, and move on to the next? I think that’s playing around too much. I know nobody’s “perfect”, but I’m waiting for the perfect match for me. It will come.

It’s different for everyone, but I think that finding out if you like a person is one of the main reason for first dates. If you can judge that without ever spending time one on one with someone, or you prefer to do the “getting to know you” in a less pressured environment, then I’m following your thinking. But how are you going to know this perfect match is really that if you don’t get to know them first?

How about getting to know him in a less-pressured inviroment, rather than a date? Personally, I don’t want to date “recreationally.” I don’t want to give small pieces of my heart to many different guys. I want to wait until I have a serious interest in this guy, and want to spend the rest of my life with him. Then he can have my whole heart, and I’m not broken by a whole bunch of other guys.

No one says ou have to give a “piece of your heart” to anyone you date.

You don’t buy a car without shopping around.

You don’t buy a house without shopping around.

You don’t settle on a mate without shopping around.

Sorry, but jumping the first person you have any feelings for isn’t going to find you Mr. Right if you refused to date anyone up until that point. Of COURSE you’ll think it’s love, you’ve never felt romantic feelings for ANYONE before.

Anon, It sounds like when he looks away fast after noticing you staring, that he is shy. Being shy myself, I would encourage you to approach him. At least find excuses to talk to him, about anything. School policy, something about class, If he is shy, or even if you like his shirt or shoes tell him.

I’m the kind of person who is shy until I meet people, then you wont be able to shut me up. So if you like him enough, take it into your own hands.
