Girls asking guys out...

[Qtpie]

Okay so I have asked guys out, but it has never turned out quite right. So I ask what is wrong with a girl asking a guy Out? who pays? Who has to plan where to go, and what they are going to do ( clearly the girl dose)? Who is going to drive? Who ask's out for a second date? And so forth? It just seems to me, and maybe I am crazy, but when a girl asks a guy out, all of a sudden the roles are reversed, and things become awkward.

I think that guys just need to grow some courage, and ask girls out to just to go out. Show them you know how to have a good time, and don't expect anything more then a fun night out. If she is having fun with you chances are she will want to do it again. We need more guys who are gentlemen, and women who can allow them to be so.

and lastly I have a question to ask all the girls. Don't you feel just that little bit extra special when a guy asks you out, compared to when you ask him?

Anyhow I am not saying girls shouldn't ask the guys out, but it would be nice if we didn't have to.

Again, I absolutely agree on every account!

i've never had any issue with the men I have asked out or the one I asked to marry me lol - whichever one of us can afford it at the time pays for the date, we go dutch etc And if we get on we made the next date at the end of the first one, if we didn't we didn't lol

I didn't ask out the guy I met, but I did give him my contact info, which was an open invitation to him to ask me out.

Well hey, it worked for me, we went on a lunch date two days later

Nope, wouldn’t bother me at all. I’m not a shy guy, but I am completely oblivious. I also never want to give someone the wrong impression or make someone uncomfortable so I guess that could always be a stressor.

I never have but I usually make it very clear to a bloke that I liked him and let him ask me out. That basically means lots of flirting!!!!

Neither me or my DH officially asked each other out. We were friends and had gone out one night with some other mates. We could feel the chemistry between us and couldnt ignore it and ended up snogging. We texted for a week then met up for dinner. The rest is history

[blusun7]

if you know what you want!!! Go get it!! lol

[Soul_Searcher]

Haha, I certainly did. Although I played hard to get for a while. DH wont ever forget it, he still tells people about it 6 years later!!!!

I know a woman can, but for some reason the RS pres. counsels us to not be the ones to ask.

Anywho, I would really like to have everyone's take on this. Guys would you prefer it if we did the asking? To those already married, who did the asking in the relationship?

Response to your inquiry: "I'm sure you are aware of these ideas. Everyone is different. Some men would like to get to know a woman well before being dating and some do not. Some men are shy and some aren't. Some men are reluctant to date because of other commitments and some are able to move aside a personal agenda and focus on oter needs.

I think it may be just a good idea for a woman to be guided by the Spirit and allow her better intuition to help. Always, if you allow for time to develop friendship with a man things will uaually work out better than if you didn't. I hope this makes some sense."
