Yeah, but your friends are friends with you. I think anything you or your group of friends say should be taken with less than a grain of salt.

They tend to live a long time without a man.
I can go my whole life without a woman in my life. If it was up to me, I wouldn't speak to my mom or sisters again.

Are you trying to be an ass by saying that? Are you saying that what I say should have no meaning?

I think that people should consider the source when looking at the value of the posts they are reading. If the thread is about relationships, and the poster wants to stay away from women for his entire life - including his mom and sisters - I don't think that they have much to offer in terms of advice or insight when it comes to relationships.

I used (keyword: used) avoided women because they scared me. It is still there, but it is fading...somewhat.

1. If you want a raise, you be direct. You ask your manager for a raise. You don't drop hints of a raise.

lol is that why there is so much gossiping among women in the workplace?

I always hear yadda yadda she's being a btch asking me to do this all the time!
I can't stand her! blahblah
I never gossip about anyone. If I have a problem with someone, I go to their face and resolve it with them rather than play games.


3. If you want to go out with that guy, you ask him out. You don't drop hints of this and that.
THIS!! Women can send signals all over the place. I'm a very docile guy unless a woman flat out tell me she is interested, I will think she is being friendly only.

Don't really have a problem with asking a guy out, but I am not really in the position to take a guy out.

Plus I am pretty shy when it comes to my feelings for someone.

As a generalization, men seem to be very interested in the topic of women asking men out.

I was at a group discussion meeting (not a dating type group) when I mentioned that I had asked a guy out the proceeding weekend and all the men were saying, stop, go back, what's this about a woman asking a man out, how did that work? They all honed right in on it like beagles spotting a rabbit. They wouldn't talk about anything else.

It would have been a great opportunity to ask any of them out, except they weren't the sort of guys I would have dated. So, there's that. Maybe the guys who aren't getting invited out aren't the sort of guys who make an effort to be date-able? Passive is not really an attractive feature in a man.
