To go around it I play the funny co cky guy act , pretend I am a different guy when I meet a woman , it seems to work very well , but yeah I know it is fake but women want , it is almost demanded . | |

| Why are guys afraid to ask women out? Posted: 5/26/2005 7:41:34 PM | Whats so hard about it? You ask, you get rejected.. its the natural cycle of things.. If you ask me.. if you don't ask, your upsetting the natural balance of things.. Stay in the circle and get rejected like the rest of us.. We need more members!  | |

| Why are guys afraid to ask women out? Posted: 5/26/2005 7:49:15 PM | | Rejection really does suck. I usually make meaningless small talk and see if there are any positive responses. If she smiles back and replies like she likes you, then you can usually tell that you are not going to get an abrasive, ego killing "Hell No". It ups the odds and a polite rejection can roll off your back like cold water. | |

| Why are guys afraid to ask women out? Posted: 5/26/2005 7:52:30 PM | | If you are so afraid change the game a bit.... Go to some place away from home... Ask women for sex (pretty much right after you say hi) until one says yes.... By the time you get to that point you will not think the rejection is a big deal anymore.... As for what you do with the one who says yes.... That is up to you... | |

| Why are guys afraid to ask women out? Posted: 5/26/2005 7:56:17 PM | Here's my take;
I was actually joking, but serious.. Naturally friendship progresses to relationship, so we know people at work and from whatever outside of work activity that we pursue. So there is someone you like, a friend. You ask the person out and they get all weird and then they are no longer a friend either..
Is that what we are afraid of?? | |

| Why are guys afraid to ask women out? Posted: 5/26/2005 8:02:44 PM | First off.... Work relationship is always a dangerous game.... Haven't you ever heard the saying "don't get your **** where you get your paycheck?"
As for the ones outside of work if they change so what? You don't have to interact with them beyond being civil... Who cares if it isn't the same? Sometimes it even leads to getting more dates because it can often cause the group to become slightly fragmented, which almost always means different people start talking to each other... | |

| Why are guys afraid to ask women out? Posted: 5/26/2005 8:18:59 PM | Keep it in perspective!... If your in the bar or initiating a 1st time email communique' online and he/she declines, deletes it, or responds in any fashion not in keeping with your hopes.. Who the hell cares!. No point feeling all dejected over it.. Not like your involved already or anything.. Keep your life simple!.. Muster up some emotional courage!.. Be strong in the face of being rejected by total absolute strangers... What does it matter anyway?
Now.. if its your wife or girl friend.. Your entitled to ask questions!.. | |

| Why are guys afraid to ask women out? Posted: 5/26/2005 8:31:13 PM | ___ I have been rejected three times these last few weeks. Tonight I cried. ___ My last date was like 5 years ago. It is very hard for me to ask a lady for a date. But I can not be alone anymore. Loneliness is killing me. ___ I am not a bad guy. I can be lots of fun. Do not know why every time I meet someone I am told "you are a great guy. You will make someone very happy someday." ___ I do not ask much. A little company. Share a coffee/drink. | |

| Why are guys afraid to ask women out? Posted: 5/26/2005 8:40:46 PM | Honestly, I don't think most guys know how to approach a woman and engage her in conversation. I also think they worry too much about being rejected. The male ego can be a fragile thing, truth be told. The key is finding an opening to strike up conversation and not coming on too strongly. If you can grab and hold her attention for a half hour or so, you'll feel much more comfortable in asking her out and you've likely improved your chances greatly. If that doesn't work, hire a high school football coach to follow you around to give you pep talks and map out a winning strategy  | |

| Why are guys afraid to ask women out? Posted: 5/26/2005 8:43:51 PM | what amazes me about guys is how they sometimes come off so nasty and bashing to women... but when the women stick up for themselves or give it back to them they either 1. become hostile 2. cry, run and hide
