| Hi! I agree, it does seem pretty emtpy of people here. It'd be super great to get a big forum of girls who love God and are seeking to treat guys with Christian love together. Think of all the fun we could have! |

well, emma anne, I'm not sure I can object- I was going to read FYWO to see what they said about us! (and what puzzled girls about guys...) End result- I got about through the preface, and ran over some highlights that my (gal) friend pointed out, but then I had to go home... so I never finished... so I guess not.
Hope139... You ignorance is pardoned :-) I sure hope you're right (and I happen to love puns, so no need to pardon that!) |

Hope139, it's no problem!
Well, dramakween... this is totally going to be my opinion. I happen to think it's kinda weird to walk up to random people and ask for their number... true, this isn't completely random... but yeah. I would probably be rather weirded out if I was in a store and a girl walked up to me and asked me for my number or email address- but then, whenever I think about possibly doing that to a girl, I feel like it would be weird. So... yeah... I just think that asking people you don't know at all for their number is kinda weird without having a conversation to continue. (Like, I'd have much less of a problem asking a girl I'd spoken to for even just one minute for her number if I'd been talking to her... and I'd probably have no problem giving her mine if she asked)
Frankly, I think it's kinda derogatory for a girl to make the first real move- like, asking a guy out for the first date... although to, like, a Sadie Hawkins dance, that's fine... it's just that "real men" have a sense of fun in adventure and risk... and asking a girl out is part of that, so it's kinda taking the fun out of it for him to have you ask him out first... if you're a couple, sure, it's actually fun to have the girl starting stuff, but off the bat, it's really something I personally would rather start (of course, I also happen to be scared to death of a girl's rejection, but whatever... that's a rabbit trail)
What do you girls think? How weird would you think it is if I were to walk up to you and ask for your number? (because as far as I know, I don't know any of you in person... although I suppose it would be just as well to answer for any guy, not just me... ) |

| Well see, we've already talked a little bit online, so like you said, it wouldn't be as weird because we've already spoken! But as I don't suppose that's actually the answer you're looking for, I'll give you a more 'real' answer. If a total random guy would walk up to me and ask me for my phone number, I would first of all be caught really off guard. And while I might be a bit flattered, it'd mostly be weird, and there'd be no way I'd give my number out to a total stranger. Generally the chances of such a guy being a Christian are rather slim, I think, and there's no way I'd want to pursue that. |

Yeah, like Hope139 says, because we've talked a bit online, i wouldnt be weirded out by it. but yeah, a stranger would freak me out, id me like "Ew No!" you definitely have to know the person a bit first, and by asking for my number, Id most probably assume it was a friendly thing... like people I meet at a five day camp, I ask for their numbers, you know, to keep in contact...
But yeah, I wouldnt give my number to a random person... |

Turn up the music
Turn it up loud
Take a few chances
Let it all out
'Cause you won't regret it
Lookin' back from where you have been
'Cause it's not who you knew
And it's not what you did
It's how you live

God Bless!

yeah, there's no way i'd just give my number out to just any tom or harry walking down the street. i'd have to know them for, at the very least, a few days. even a few minutes of conversation would be enough, i guess. but if they give me a bad impression of them, especially a non-christian guy, i wouldn't give them my number/email address.
and as far as girls asking guys out, i wouldn't. sadie hawkins dance, sure. but wjr1991, you're so right. it takes the fun and risk out of it for the guys! they were made to be the knight in shining armour for us ladies. i've never, and am not planning on asking a guy out, even if we're good friends. he needs to take the initiative, period.

| mk, so I dunno if any guys read this or not, but i really need your response if you do!! There's this guy i like, like, REALLY like...but he's 2 years older than me. Are guys turned off by younger girls? He's not necessarily popular or anything, but he's a great guy, that's what i like about him. i also can't seem to get his attention! i'm so shy around him and never know what to say. what do i do? |

welp, runnergirl, i don't think they are. if you're acting immature for your age or whatever, they can be. but a girl can be 16 and be acting like she's 10, y'know?
my boyfriend is 2 years and 2 weeks older than me. that's not a HUGE age gap, but it's definitely enough. and most of the time, i don't even realize he's 18 1/2 now, 'cause he's usually acting like he's my age or much younger, haha. we have alot of the same friends, too, since we attend the same church and youthgroup, so that's a plus.
really, just be yourself around him. guys like that, everybody does. if he notices you going our of your way or acting completely different JUST to please him, that's a major turn-off, believe me. not all guys, at least not the keepers!, are turned on by show offs and sarcasticly loud bombshells, y'know? you just may find that he's liking you, right now, just the way you are. and you don't even realize it 'cause he doesn't have the guts to tell you! you never, ever know. ;]

Yeah, I am a sophomore and he is a senior, so there is 2 years between us also. He knows that I like him...he found out a while ago, but he hasn't acted any differently, he's still nice to me and all...but my friends today told me that he's just started really showing off like, in the past week..i haven't noticed, but they said he has. He is on the same Cross Country team as I, so we see each other 4 times a week in the summer. I kinda want to ask him where he stands, cuz I am getting mixed signals from him, and I don't want to be clueless all season, and then find out at the end of they year, that he's liked me all along.
What should I about that?
If he does ask me out, I'm gonna say that I think we should get to know each other first, because as much as I want us to be together, I wanna know that he feels the same and he isn't just doing it cuz he feels obligated.

well, runnergirl, i think you should just pray about it for a while. guys should always be the initiators. don't rush into anything you're unsure of. if he really likes you, he'll do what he can to get your attention. be that talking to you alot at practices/meets, hanging out, asking you out, etc. if you'll just be yourself, things will come in time. and that's a good mindset, about him asking you out. you should, without a doubt, get to know each other very well first before dating. you don't want to be together just out of infatuation or because, like you said, he feels like he should. keep praying about it, or start to if you aren't now. that's always a great beginning.
