    You can ask them out. It's a win-win situation for both.

    This is the most frequent response I receive to the "why?" of men not asking a woman out, or even approaching her.

    Try admin's suggestion. It's either that or wait around for some guy to gain some confidence, which can take several days to several decades depending on the man.

    Because some guys are either simply used to, or THINK that women will ask THEM out.. so they don't feel the need to initiate or ask out.. this places guys into two categories.. lucky b@stards & dreamers..

    In either case.. the only thing you can do is ask them out, initiate, or just leave it be and move along..

    A LOT of men still think that there's a chance that women will initiate or ask them out.. which is why a LOT of them are single and don't get the women they want (and instead settle for whatever they can get)..

    Personally, I feel the guy should be the man and get comfortable initiating.. it makes him the stronger sex, and gives him more sexual power when he's the initiator.. BUT, if you don't meet these men, then it's up to you to initiate and ask out guys you really like..

    Hold out for the one with enough courage to ask you out. A lack of courage in one area likely indicates lack of courage in others, and you don't want to have to be the boy all the time, do you?

    How old are you, anyway? If you are under 20, I wouldn't worry. Pretty soon, you'll be beating them off of you. They are like dogs in heat.
    Relax... I'll need some information first. Just the basic facts - can you show me where it hurts?

    you're assuming here that the 'fault' lies with the guys and not you. Sure, plenty of guys are afraid to make the first move etc, but maybe you are too. It depends on what kind of signals you give out and how approachable you are.

    While I can agree with the advice here I think the reasoning behind it is flawed. Some introverts might not give two shits to ask girls out because they simply don't care, it has nothing to do with courage in some cases. There are cases where it does but not always.

    I agree with this. Best advice. I'm assuming she is attractive since she didn't even bother to bring that up.

    Okay, assuming you are right, why would she want a boyfriend who doesn't care enough to ask her out? Either way, it's not a good package.

    I personally don't ask girls out that I don't know. I befriend them first and within the stages of getting to know them will figure out if I should just be a friend or could move on to potentially something else. I guess you could say I don't really date. So why don't you ask some guys you are interested in to do something and think to yourself that it is a friend basis thing. From there maybe the guy will get the courage after hanging out with you or with you to make some moves.

    some guys are intimidated on how a girl looks also. it could be that a girl is so attractive to where a guy may feel that they're "not good enough" for that girl.
