Asking out

    Straight to the point-
    I have never been asked out on a date by a guy.

    I am friendly and nice but I feel in someway I intimidate guys. I know that there is and have been guys interested but they never make it to the stage of asking me. I am not shy by nature, a talk with ease to both men and women.
    I would prefer not to be the one doing the asking.
    What should I do?

    You don't have a choice, ask a man out. You will probably succeed.

    Don't play any mind games. If there is someone that interests you, just ask them out to see a film, dinner, or whatever it is you like to do in your spare time. Why don't you want to do the asking? Is it fear of rejection or are in the dark ages and believe that men should be doing the asking all the time? :)

    Damn, beat me to it!!

    Seriously, it's a bit selfish to sit and wait for someone to ask you out. Maybe that's the problem? Guys think you're standards are too high and therefore don't bother wasting their time and risking being humiliated by a rejection?

    Anyway, the guys that don't ask you out tend to be better than the ones that don't. We put more effort in once the ice is broken.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    I doubt there actually are any men out there interested in you. This 'info' of which you speak is probably just your friends telling you these thing in order to make you feel better.

    I think if you *really* don't want to be the asker in the arranagement then you should start giving off more hints that you are available. Introduce more flirty/sexy talk into your conversations. Dress slutty too.

    don't know how old you are, but wouldn't worry too much about if if you're still young.

    Why? Maybe the men feel the same.
