- Go to Ask a Man on a Date?--Go for it!
I HAVE DONE THIS 3-4 TIMES
I have asked about 3-4 guys out in my life....only due to lack of anyone asking me out(at least during a time I wasn't seeing anyone).
All were rejections but one. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone with a weak heart....sure not something I'd like to try again

Thanks, but I doubt there are too many men losing sleep over my lack of interest!

You underestimate yourself
holygrail. That did give me some insight. It must disappoint a lot of guys to find out you're not interested in dating

Well my answer is boring and will give you absolutely no insight whatsoever, but as a single woman I feel it's my duty to answer anway! I have no interest in dating, and even if I did I am far too shy and fearful of rejection to ever ask a guy out.

Klara...
I have a feeling you do just fine. But when it comes to the asking, I think I just have low tolerance for bullshit. I say go for it. Rejection is less an issue with me than dancing all around the subject.

Great post, Jeff. I'm not as brave as Gypsy, obviously, as I've never
asked. Did think about it from time to time, just never got the words out of my mouth when they should've come out. I'll have to reconsider this now (and Gyp can coach me on how to do this).

Well, as far as I know, all y'all live too far away for me to date. But, I tell you what, as much as I like what Jeff writes, I'd go for you in a sec, we're too alike to ignore it. (Sorry Jeff!)

Scriber...
You know, when I flirt in person I often laugh a little and even wink.... can't do that online, so I'll add a LOL to show that I'm having a good time with it. Why get pissed off at something that's all in good fun?

One thing I notice about women, they will say something suggestive and
then add LOL, that really pisses me off.

LOL - nice to read a man's perspective
I've never asked a guy out on a date. But I've also been on very few dates - been a bit selective I guess. However, I will make the first move and say hi and introduce myself to new people, if I'm in the mood.

I tend to be a bit bolder than maybe the average female..
So, I've never had a problem asking a guy out. I hate playing games and beating around the bush, so I just put it out there. What I do find though, is that some men find this intimidating and it scares them. So, I know those aren't the ones I'll get along with! Speaking of dates....Jeff? LOL
