This thread was inspired by this thread: Is It Really A Big Deal When A Woman Asks A Man Out On A Date? Both Genders Weigh In
They keep saying "That's desperate, he's never going to treat you well/special, you'll do all of the work" and other stuff like that.
Are they wrong?
I think a lot of them are wrong, but it depends on the type of male, I guess. & the situation.
Personal reasons. I want a women to desire me so much that they feel need to go out of their way to have a relationship with me. Is that how women think, do they enjoy the chase more than anything else? Either way, it's just my way of thinking, I'm sure I will grow out of it eventually. It definitely isn't a smart way of going about things if being in a relationship is a prime goal. But at my age, being in a relationship offers no real benefits.Why don't you approach/ask women out?
Why don't you approach/ask women out?
How did the relationshiip go with the women who asked you first? Was the relationship different with them compared to the women you asked out first? How? Did you feeli like you were settling?

I don't think that will happen anytime soon.
Is It Really A Big Deal When A Woman Asks A Man Out On A Date? Both Genders Weigh In
If the men who you want to date were attracted to you then they'd be asking you out. If a woman has men asking her out then she wouldn't need to ask other men out if the men who wanted her met her standards. There are only so many men you can date if you are a woman who works, works out, and gets her eight hours of sleep. Some women aren't living in their truth...they are being approached by men who they say aren't who hey want to date. If men who you do want to date aren't approaching you first then you need to realize that they don't want you. Women don't want to admit that to themselves so they turn around and ask them out. Like I said, if only hood men approach you then you need to admit to yourself that you are only good enough for a hood dude at this time
Women who ask men out are doing so because there is something wrong with them. They are either ugly, fat, think highly of themselves based on a college degree, or trying to date men who don't want to wife up a woman like them. Men would be asking them out if they were as fly as they think they are. I've never had an issue with men who I want to date approaching me. I put myself in situations where I know they'll be and it doesn't take long for someone to strike up a conversation with me. I'm fortunate enough to where the kind of men I want to date also want to date me. Some women don't have it like that and don't want to admit it to themselves.
If they lived in their truth then they would have someone to take them out on the weekends, but they are rejecting men based on little things like height and looks. Looks and all of that will eventually not matter one day....the fact that he can provide, has a career with good benefits, etc should be what women really look for in a man. Then you have chicks who claim that only hood men approach them...well, maybe they need to come to terms that they are hood themselves. Then you have some women who reject men because they don't make enough money yet these women are pulling in $15 an hour if they are lucky.
If you want to approach a man then go ahead but just know that you weren't his top choice because he would have approached you first.
I'd be skeptical but it would be nice to see a woman actually practicing equality. Right now I'd say no because I'm not in dating condition.Out on a date. A first date? Or approaching you first?
Would it be different if a female stranger asks vs. a female friend/acquaintance?
Would you treat her worse than a woman you asked out? How/why?
How do you usually decide who you will/won't ask out?
Have you ever been asked out by a woman? What happened?

Here is a comment by The Gate over at LSA:
"People will not keep it 300 on this topic because they have no incentive. Men are not going to go above and beyond for women they already know that they have in the bag.Most likely they are either going to accept or tolerate that affection. Not revere it. I see this every week.
And most of what you're saying isn't applicable to normal people. @stubbornMost women do not got it like that to have multiple men in a dating rotation for months on end. And most men wouldn't even stand for such a thing in the first place. There is a difference between indicating interest and asking men out a date.
Let me tell you something, if I was walking downtown and I saw an open briefcase with a million dollars in the middle of the street, you know what I'm gonna do? I'm going to go get it. I'm not gonna sit there and deliberate. Folks need to focus on the ones looking at them like a million bucks, not the ones not looking at all."
