Guys, how many girls have asked you out?

We now live in a world where both males and females are considered equal, and rightly so. Therefore, surely the archaic rule about the male having to be the one to ask the female out is now confined to history? We must live in a world where both sexes take the initiative to ask the other gender out, yes?

So my question is how many of you guys have been asked out by females?

If you are wondering, Id assume the majority of men with social anxiety do not get approached, because their body language (whether they are aware or not) makes it difficult to appear approacheable. I would say the only way this can be remedied is to be considered physically attractive at first glance, or "faking" a confident, approcheable self.

Never. I always have asked them.

Nothing has changed in the world I live. Men have to ask the women, even when its pretty obvious that girl is going to say yes.
Yep. That's why I've never had a girlfriend and probably will never have a girlfriend. :(

I say probably because I do have a little hope but it's not much though.
Now if I don't ever ask anybody out then it will just the same as always. Nothing

Is that Mr. Sarkozy? He has no problem asking out women :lol.

Me. One, but I think it was a giant joke.

Sorry, but it's still the role of the dude to ask a girl out. Even though today I put myself out there a lot more than I used to I have still never been asked out by a girl. Maybe one time a girl from POF asked me to hang out before I asked her, but it was clearly heading to that point anyway, and I can barely remember if that's even true or not.

I'm not really sure what being asked out means. Does anyone actually say "will you go out with me"? I've had a quite a few girls show interest in me and I've been told that (insert name) likes me but nothing ever happened. I was always too nervous and or I wasn't interested in them. I'm completely clueless if girls I'm attracted to feel the same way about me.

A friend that I've gone clubbing with got approached twice in the same week. He's not particularly attractive, but he is tall and has a good time. At one of the clubs, this girl who was getting hit on by a guy told him, "I'm with him(my friend)" even though they never met. She proceeded to give my friend her number. At another club, this girl randomly came up to the same friend and asked him what his name was. I think he was too stupid to realize what was going on and blew her off. Right after that, we asked him why he didn't talk to her, and he said he didn't know what was happening.

I guess it depends on what you mean by asked out? I mean, my friends and I never really went on "dates". We mostly would hang out together at someone's house, or go out together as a group. I did have one girl ask me out to my junior prom, she was a senior...that was kind of awkward. And my best friend asked me to homecoming. Was wierd, they both caught me totally offguard.

My ex-wife asked me the first time we went out (actually she asked me over to her apartment).

My gf that just passed away...I sort of started flirting with her, really more to be friends than anything else. All my best friends have always been women, I don't get it. Anyway she came up to me the next day and literally sat on my lap.

I have a lot of trouble getting dates. When I've gotten lucky, when women have asked me, I think it's because I sort of made myself available...I put myself out there, dropped hints, flirted a little. I don't know.
