WHY ARE GUYS SO FREAKING WEIRD?!?!?!?

[suckseed]

You forgot already? I thought you cared. I like athletic women who smile easily and like to converse. The rest is totally variable. Hair, skin, eyes, boobs...they're beautiful in all their forms.

But who cares...I have no problem talking to beautiful women. It's just the question of turning a conversation into a proposition that makes me hesitate.

I feel the need to add to this brilliant thread............

[Ladies]
if you are in a bar and some dude walks in and gets his drink and stands or sits at the bar minding his business not looking at you, giving you no signs of interest.......................... DO NOT walk up to him and say "Hi, can you buy me a drink?" or "Hi, can you tell me what time it is?" etc................

He's not interested, he might be interested in your friend, he might be interested in the hefty chick checking coats at the door, hell he might be interested in that waitress you didn't tip when she brought you that last Corona™, but he isn't interested in you. Don't make a fool of yourself and end up walking away pissed when you knew in your head way before you took your 1st step towards the guy that it wasn't going to happen, no he isn't a trick, no he doesn't want you, just no...................

We're not all like that.

I'm actually afraid to approach women. I wouldn't say that I'm shy, but I often times need a push. When a girl talks to me, I gladly talk back.

Johnny: Ok, you're pissed about being acosted by escorts when you are at a CLUB FULL OF ESCORTS. Geez! What do you expect when you go to Vapor or another one of those places?! If girls are doing that to you at regular bars either you are Brad Pitt or .... you are Brad Pitt.

the situation i was talking about was at a regular "straight" bar.

I guess I have never really understood what the big deal is. Why do so many men seem to fear approaching a woman more than death? If you find someone attractive and you notice that they are looking your way occasionally then walk up to her and introduce yourself. No line needed. It is as simple as that. What is the worst that could happen?

[gottchoo]

Fear of rejection.
Simple as that.

I agree though...if you catch eyes with someone, and they want you to come over to them, they will give subtle hints through body language.

[mpcc2004]

Agreed that it is fear of rejection. But why do so many guys fear it so much. Get out there and you'll (not you specifically) will realize that it isn't a big deal.

No guts no glory

Well, women aren't the only ones with insecurities. And when you get rejected, it just reinforces all ones you have. Maybe even creates a few new ones ... Mahalo
