I looked up some questions that other people posted about dating because I have females friends who wonder if it's OK for girls to ask guys out. So I did some research where you find answers to your every question of life: The 100 Hour Board. Here are three that I really liked.1. You know how guys feel.
Many guys are nervous to ask girls out on dates so this question was very "dear" to me because this girl started to understand how guys would feel. You, girls, start asking guys out; you will understand why some guys are scared to ask you out.
2. "Ask and ye shall receive."
I don't know about this whole "other country" business the werf (he/she) was talking about but if you are complaining about guys not asking you out, you can ask them out. It's no big deal. At least the guy will know that you are interested in him.
3. Stigma!Guys should never get freaked out if a girl ask them out. For my first date ever in my life, I was asked out by a girl. I only freaked out because it was my first date but I thought it was pretty cool that she asked me out. Of course, it didn't work out since I was interested in someone else. Anyways, going back to what I was really talking about, I think girls should just go for it.
I couldn't find anything about some tactful ways for girls to ask guys out so I asked that question. Once they answer that question, I will update this post.
Update
So the 100 Hour Board basically said,
I'm going to say that girls should ask guys out in pretty similar ways to how guys should ask girls out (see here). Specify that you'd like to go on a date with them and suggest an activity. Be casual about it, but go for it. Board writers in the past have commented that most guys like getting asked out by girls, though girls shouldn't necessarily expect an immediate reciprocation of interest. Seriously. Just use the word 'date' but don't be creepy. Tell them you want to go see a concert, eat at a certain restaurant, etc. and you'd enjoy doing it with them. Go for it!There it is. From the all-knowing Board.
