Whats a "wishy-washy" guy?


He's like a wax-on; wax-off kind of guy with a little more swish than swash! :laughing:

Um, just someone that can't make up their mind. They flirt, act interested, but when the opportunity arises, they chicken out, change their minds, etc.

Keep in mind, I know that women can be just as bad. winking






Getting the terminology down. I follow.

I usually have to do the asking. If I waited around, I would date even less than I do now. sad

When I find someone of interest, I send the signals. The problem is I might not be their type or they might be attached. I can’t take it personally.

The window of attraction, availability and timing are so delicate!

I would hope I am approachable enough for a guy to ask me out. I keep reading this thread to get a guy's perspective.

More feedback from the guys ... flowerforyou


That's what my intention was too. Guys, please answer!

maybe some guys like to take matters slow, maybe they feel pressured to ask someone out, usually when i ask someone out for the 1st time i like to keep it simple, like maybe meet for coffee or a drink have lunch together.

Feedback time guys. How many of you have not asked a woman out because you just assumed she would say no?
Does fear of rejection stop you from approaching? Just want to get the male's point of view since I have a girl-brain.


I wouldn't know

I've never been rejected

I think of meeting women like fishing. I see an interesting woman, I approach her and say hello. If she likes me we take the next step. If she doesn't I just talk to someone else.

I don't feel that women ever reject me because they don't know me. How can she truly know if she likes me after only a few seconds? She can't. I just assume she's in a bad mood that night. There same woman may like me another time. I have had that happen.

Not I.

Part of me being interested is assuming that the lady is interested.

I don't ask women out because I don't want to date. If I did want to date, I would ask whomever I was interested in...because I am that damn good.smokin

I'm not as aggressive about approaching a woman I'm interested in as I should be. I usually flirt a bit and wait until she shows signs of interest.

Haven't quite got the hang of this dating game. I've only been in a few, but long term relationships. Been with someone more than not.

I dont really use cheezy pick up lines or any of that crap so I have no problem talking to a girl,sometimes I get a little nervous if the girl is super hot but I dont fold I just get better..I never make a move right away so if they give me a chance to talk to them long enought then I make my move if not then she isnt interested..SO I guess I am a little nervous but it never stops me

A guy has to be a real jerk for me to not agree to at least meet up for a cup of coffee... great friends can be made that way.

I would ask them to meet up if there were any local...:tongue:

I have e-mailed lot of girls and don't get anything back. Yes it does make it harder to keep going sending out e-mails know that they won't respond but you have to keep on trying.tears
