janie423 Posted May 7, 2010 Posted May 7, 2010 My STBXW asked me out. I've also had numerous women ask me out while I was seperated. I didn't consider any of them desperate or anything like that. don't know what STBXW means . . .
phineas Posted May 7, 2010 Posted May 7, 2010 don't know what STBXW means . . . sorry, to me it means lieing,cheating, manipulating Piece of crap. Or in layman's terms soon to be ex wife.
brainygirl Posted May 8, 2010 Posted May 8, 2010 I used to be very passive in dating. The quiet girl at the bar who only smiled at guys, the girl in the wall waiting to be asked. Now that I am older and more experienced I tend to let men I am interested in know I am interested. I don't know if its really any more successful than waiting to be approached, but it certainly puts more responsibility for dating in my hands. Which is empowering. Why shouldn't women ask men out, suggest a time and place to meet for a date or even initiate physical intimacy? How much longer will we have to act like shy victorians to be socailly accepted. that being said, of he isn't into me, I move along. Rejection is a part of searching and shouldn't be taken personally unless the other party makes it personal. (tell me you aren't into me its ok, insult my weight or my intelligence, that's just mean)
