What is wrong with guys?

Why isn’t there anyone left out there who calls and asks a girl out instead of texting them? No gentleman left?

Well can’t speak for everyone but I don’t like calling people. Either face to face talking or texting. Phone calls are just weird to me.

Girls should be sought after, that’s part of the whole being a gentleman.

No it’s not. Why should girls be ’sought after’ anymore than girls ’sought after’ girls?

???You mean anymore than guys should be sought after by girls? Look, all I’m saying is that I want a decent guy that calls a girl instead of texting her to ask her out. That’s not to much to ask for.

No okay. I agree. But if there was someone then you could always ask him as well.

Well!
Most guys prepfer face to face as the good Dr just said…
But if they are uncomfortable with the idea they normally move to the mode which is least likely to cause any hurt…

You got a text invitation? Consider yourself so lucky you weren’t facebooked. Your complaint was felt many decades ago when no gentleman sent letters anymore, they just phoned their potential girlfriend to ask them out. Times change, romance dies. Its all part of the cycle. Sorry you had to be born so late.

LOL, some sympathy, thanks. I always felt like I was a few generations behind.

Gentleman = not exist.
Get back to reality, its just going to get worse! But actually some guys do speak face to face. And hey, maybe if he is a shy guy, he was scared to call you?

Not I scared, I guess texting is more convenient for them. To me, it says a lot about their character.

I’d ask someone out face to face. But if it has to be a phone call or text id choose a text saying “we need to talk next time we see each other” so yea

Yeah, that sounds like a more approapriate way. Thats usually what the normal guys left there do.

I would, I don’t feel like it’s beneath me or anything, don’t get me wrong. If there was someone I liked badly enough then I would ask.

I actually deleted my texting service…
Mainly because they overcharged me, but also because things were becoming too impersonal…

well honestly i don’t see the difference if you like someone and they ask you out in text over the phone or in person i don’t know why it should matter either way the same message of them liking you back is there
me personally though think its weird talking on the phone and texting so usually i just set up a date through text and don’t talk until we are face to face
