    I haven't dated and I've always wondered exactly how dating and the whole bf/gf thing starts. The whole thing seems kind of awkward and rejection is scary. I was suddenly asked out by a classmate and I totally freaked out; never saw it coming...

    So, is it more common for a girl to ask the guy out? because I would imagine it would be impossible for a guy to ask a girl out if they feared rejection. The whole ego issue and all.

    What are some ways to ask a girl out? Like Suijei said... fear of rejection... XD
     
  3. yea even more scary if you kinda know the person and your like somewhat friends... or you have doubts about whether you'll be compatible with the person and that everything would work out...

    LOL But isn't the fear of rejection something that makes it that much more special? without that feeling it owuld be like asking anyone else on a date. Usualli in alot of the cases, you dont' actualli confess to them, you just kinda move slowly towards a gf/bf relationship until you ultimately have to pop a question.

    I think when the time come you will know who and how to ask. As usual nothing is perfect and no one can confirm forever or eternity as sometimes thing dont go the way we plan. So if you think you found someone just try and keep on trying. Better wrong one million times than lose out one time. Noone know what is right or wrong even promise will not help. So just try.

    I think too many people now-a-days look up to the whole dating scene (in a way). The fear of rejection is natural, but acknowledge it's natural and move on with it. Too much hype about getting rejected. It's not a big deal as they can have all sorts of reasons such as already have a bf or husband, really doesn't have time for a relationship, etc.

    Pretty girls get asked out all the freaking time, they're use to it. So most likely, they won't be surprised by you. If you don't act like a wussbag about it, you'll get more positive responses than you think. Be confident and be different when approaching a girl (So not interview questions and how's your day going bull crap). If you don't practice, you'll never get good ;)

    Start being more confident, if you're a great guy and you know you're a great guy... why would you get rejected? Think of your purpose for talking to her is to better her life because you're such a great guy. They'll feel that intention if you're serious about it... blah blah blah... I can write a book on this stuff :p but no need.

    Do not be scared of rejection. If the girl rejects you its probably because she fancies someone else, just forget her and move on.

    Did i somehow imply that the one who feared rejection was a guy?
    "Start being more confident, if you're a great guy... "
    "If the girl rejects you... "
    Why are all of these comments directed to one side?

    ^ i totally agree. why do people take it so seriously? it's just dating. dating doesn't mean you HAVE to love her. ok maybe there's a particular girl you REALLY like and you want to be with her but it doesn't mean you HAVE to be with her forever. If she doesn't like you, move on. I mean dude, you'll always run into a person you'll like better.

    Think of it as dating, not marriage. Don't take it too seriously, cause that's how you screw up. Ask a girl out, go and have fun.
