<p>why the heck can’t guys ask girls out these days?</p>
<p>it seems like us girls have to get more and more flirty and aggressive with guys or they don’t notice us. hardly any of the couples I know started with the traditional thing: boy asks girl to go out for movie/dinner/whatever; rather, the girls just sort of hung around the guys and texted them a lot and all of a sudden they were “a couple”</p>
<p>no way am i ever asking a boy out. it’s their job!!! </p>
<p>btw -has anyone seen that movie “he’s just not that into you” (or read the book, god forbid)? it was pretty lousy, but it’s definitely related to this discussion</p>
<p>Because you females make it hard for us to tell whether you are interested in us, and the majority of us males, regardless of how macho we are, are afraid of rejection.</p>
<p>Females shouldn’t be afraid to ask males out. It would make things a lot easier.</p>
<p>Neh, traditional roles. As long as I don’t have to clean or cook.</p>
<p>Exactly, its normally impossible to know if you are interested or not. Acting flirty doesn’t cut it because plenty of girls act flirty to every single guy.</p>
<p>but it’s just as tough to tell if a guy is interested. the only way to know for sure if a guy is interested is if he asks you out</p>
<p>I cant speak for all girls but usually if we are flirty with you guys it’s a huge sign we are interested.</p>
<p>I’ve had several instances where a girl and I suddenly start hanging out more, calling/texting every day, flirting, etc., and it turns out she wasn’t at all interested.</p>
<p>I’m a guy and I’ve been asked out a few times but it’s never been by anyone I’ve wanted to go out with.</p>
