Why do guys want girls to make the first move?

Why do guys always want girls to make the first move?

 

His answer: Nabil O., 15 says, “Guys are not as confident as you girls think! We get nervous and can be insecure. Girls making the first moves assures us you’re interested. Plus, it screams confidence, which is always a plus.”

 

Decoded: Guys aren’t always as cool and collected as they make themselves seem. Girls make ‘em sweat! They’re also not into games—they want to make sure you’re interested. Most importantly, guys love a gal with guts. A girl makin’ the first move is way attractive.

 

Your Move: Put on your best outfit and be the greatest flirter you can be. Make it obvious you’re into him and hopefully the feelings are mutual.  But, make sure you’re not too forward. We don’t recommend goin’ up to your crush and planting a big one on him in math class. If approaching a guy still seems a little nerve-wracking, make yourself approachable. Big groups of girls are intimidating, so walk down the hallway or cafeteria line solo. Give him a chance to make his move. You just might snag one before schools out for summer.

I really like this guy in my swimming. The problem is, he's a year older than me, and next year he's going to middle school. He's really nice to me, and I don't know if he likes me or not. Swimming is over, and I almost never get to see him. How can I talk to him without him thinking I'm a stalker?

Hey girl,

Why not ask him for his phone number or email address to keep in touch over the summer? It won't seem weird, it will just seem like you want to stay friends! You can start a conversation about anything casual and it shouldn't be weird, but if it seems like he's not into the conversation, he might just want to be friends. Use the summer as a time to hang out with your friends, and don't worry about him too much -- whatever is supposed to happen will happen!

Hey Bluejayee221, it can be awkward when your friend is getting romantic with their boyfriend. Since your girlfriends are always with their guys why dont you scheldue a girls night for all of you. You all could get dressed up hang out and no boys would be allowed. Whenever you are hanging with your friends and their boyfriends, try to bring up topics or do things that you all enjoy. So instead of feeling like the third wheel, it will just feel like friends hanging together. Hope this helps!! Xoxo

All of my friends have boyfriends,( except for a few who aren't guys or girly stuff) and I'm feeling left out. Whenever I sit with one of my friends and her bf, it gets super awkward and I end up leaving. I'm happy for my friends and all, but how can I feel less like the only girl who doesn't have a boyfriend? Lynae P.

I really like this guy, but we barely talk, we only have one class together and he doesnt talk to me until the last 2 minutes of class, and i wanna get his number but i don't know how, and I can't just go up to him and ask him, I know i would mess this up, what do i do/say to get his number? thank you! Smile

 

Maybe pretend you need help with that class? Ask him for his number in case you have any questions you need to ask him. I think thats your best bet Smile xoxo kerra

There's this guy I really like and he told me he likes me too. We text a lot and flirt but there isn't a lot of time to talk at school and it's kind of awkward. We're always with our own groups so it's hard to hang out. Any Advie?

Hey girl,

why not set up a study date or group date? If there are other people it will be less awkward, and if you're doing homework, you'll be productive and get to spend time together! Try introducing each other to your friends so that your "groups" will be less divided.

I have a boyfriend who I've been dating about 6 months. He's really sweet and considerate, kinda shy, and obviously cares about me a lot, but we don't have a lot in common and I don't really feel like we have a lot of chemistry. To make things even more complicated, I'm starting to like one of my guy friends. He's really nice and outgoing and I always have fun with him, and he acts kind of flirty, but he's a huge flirt who acts that way with everyone. And he's two years older than me and graduating this year, and I don't see him much out of school, so I feel like there's not really a chance of us being any more than friends. I got his number from his sister but he doesn't know I have it and I feel really stupid and guilty about it because I'm dating someone. I'm really confused. is it worth even considering breaking up with my boyfriend, or should I just try to get over him? I feel like it wouldn't work out if we dated or I even asked him out, but I really like him.

Hey girl,

Before you make a decision, you should try to separate your feelings about your boyfriend from your feelings about this new guy. Did your relationship have problems before you starting liking your friend? If you've been on the rocks for a while, it might be time for you to take some time apart. But if you still care about him, it might be worth giving your relationship another try! Just don't let this guy get in the way of your relationship, because whether you stay together should be about what's between the two of you.
