Question for the men out there. Do you like it if a woman asks you on a first date or do you still prefer to be the one who makes the first move?

Happy either way. If the latter, then it’s a lot easier if there are signals one way or the other. That said, I’m
married now so this perspective is from years ago.

If you don’t want to go full-on reversal, give him a clear green light to ask you out. It gives you control while still giving him room to lead. It also reduces the pressure on both of you. For example, instead of directly asking him out, playfully say “When are you going to ask me out?”

Yes, I like it if they initiate just about everything. I'm happy to follow along

I feel more confident when she asks me. I’ve always liked a woman who can take charge with pretty much everything.

After all the time of sitting in the crossfire of progress and regression, dating itself will be a scheduling change I am just too exhausted to handle.

Please ask me out on a date - just don't tell my wife.

I am an introvert. I like a lady who can take charge and make decisions. I’ll say yes and pay the bill, but I like it when she makes it happen and I just say yes.

As the CSC exam costs above 1000 CAD, I wanted to be sure if I need it before investing behind it.

When to break-up with someone? I’ve been dating my gf for 6 years (2 long distance 1yr on a break and 3 living together.

My fiancé will NOT stop talking about her ex. After I found out they were texting arguing she justified it by saying it was about the dogs and not them.

I try to bring it up and I get dismantled for being too mean and making “false accusations.” How much more obvious can it be?

He supported my career and dreams and this just doesn’t make sense. We have gotten a counselor but things aren’t getting better. Comment>
