RE: Taking The Initiative: Something Complicated | WE #160 [EN]

Attraction is attraction and if two people feel it for the other then who cares who says

I have the same opinion, at the end of the day it doesn't matter who makes the first move if there is mutual attraction. In the case of Latin America, it's something strange because there is no law prohibiting it, but generation after generation the same thing happens. Perhaps it's society, culture, or something else, but I think that for women it's a matter of comfort, and for men, it's seen as what needs to be done. It's uncommon to see a woman ask a man out, in fact, since I read the topic, I did a small survey among my friends and only 2 out of 14 said they had been asked out once. It's an interesting topic and perhaps worthy of study. I sincerely hope that this trend changes, it's also interesting to be asked out and enjoy a different moment. In a few years, maybe we'll talk again and I'll tell you how it's going.

Mate, it's always a pleasure to respond to your messages, I enjoy reading your comments, thank you. I hope you had a good weekend.

Sort:  

There's many reasons a man might not ask a woman out, fear of rejection among those reasons. To be honest I think people make it too hard on themselves, both men and women.

Like someone? Make it known, ask them out, tell them they attract you in whatever way is appropriate.

It's not rocket science.

Thanks for your kind words, and yes I hope you'll fill me in at some stage and tell me how those LATAM ladies are asking the fellows out for dates! (The weekend was good...after midnight now though, Monday has arrived, and time for some sleep.)
