Ask Shallon: Why You Should NEVER Ask A Guy Out (Or Even Text First)

It's 2015, girls should be able to ask a guy out right? WRONG. Boys are hunters, and if he wants you, he'll come get YOU. Here's why being too aggressive will creep out your crush and why truly modern girls know that they're worth chasing! Beyonce knows this.

    you just blew my mind. i will now stop forcing conversation with that cute guy and stop trying to figure out how to ask the other guy out. if they wanted to talk to me/go out with me, they would ask/do so

    she is now settled with the mediocre average guy because her options were only limited to what comes to her because men of quality rarely if ever initiate first. whilst the cute guy simply waited for another girl to hit on him. this is the reality.@@xixi3148

    Shalon, there's a difference between being the first to approach or go say hi or even start a casual conversation or ask someone out.... And running after someone who does not respond to you at all. The first thing is fine. It doesn't oblige you to anything. And you lose nothing by simply talking to people. It's the second thing that makes a woman look ridiculous. Trying too hard to get that one guy who is not interested in you. That is silly. It is fine to just approach a man just to talk. You're not offering him anything. Just being friendly. And what's wrong with being friendly? Why can't we normalize being friendly and kind with each other?

    Girls this is sooooooooooooo true! Ignore the guys on here that are getting p'd off with this truth. I've recently learned this the hard way, thought I would try a more modern approach to dating but it became more n more apparent that he never truly appreciated me the way others have that have asked me out in the past. I wish I had watched this a year n half ago! lol I really weighed the pro's/cons for a few mths before building up the courage and there was def a difference of how things unfolded and his much more casual approach towards me. Anyways live and learn!!!! and yes ladies our biological make-up IS different for this exact reason. Nothing wrong with flirting or giving a guy subtle hints..they like the chase and if he IS interested HE will find the courage NO MATTER how shy he is to ask you out. If he doesn't then trust he's not the guy for you and move forward.

    So this is all true. And I stopped doing this. But the reason why I did chase men because I myself had a lot masculine energy. And I liked eating from the smorgasboard. Just like men do. So we don't have to feel sorry for girls because there are lot of women who are huntresses and enjoy it. Even though there were heartbreaks, I couldn't stop doing this until something shifted in my whole being, after a lot of consciousness and healing work, and I started to embrace my feminine energy and way of being. And from this energy it is ridiculous to chase a guy, you're absolutely right! :)

    Girls never make the first move! Shallon is absolutely right! Listen I’m a huge believer that whoever is meant to be in your life will be in your life and everything will workout but, we can’t know that from the first glimpse, but if a guy isn’t the one for you and you play the game wrong then you will make a fool out of yourself by telling that you like him. By telling a guy that you like him or are interested in him, the chance that he will lose interest in you is HUGE. Don’t do it girls!!!!!!

    Shallon is absolutely right! If both men and women stayed in our lanes, there wouldn't be so much confusion or mixed messages. When a man pursues a woman he is attracted to, he demonstrates assertiveness, virility, and confidence. All traits that women love. I actually ended up marrying a man I asked out and it ended in divorce because he was just looking for someone to use for financial gain. It's ok to make eye contact and flirt with a guy you think is cute, but don't call or ask him out first.

    Well shit, since no guy will make the first move on me, I guess I’m undesirable and unworthy of love and destined to be alone forever. This kind of advice isn’t empowering, quite the opposite. This is the kind of advice that turned me into a bitter resentful person I don’t wanna have to just go with the first guy that asks me out just because I want a boyfriend but don’t get approached
