Why don't females make the first move?

Really, it has a lot to do with genetics and reproduction. Females have a limited number of opportunities to reproduce, where males have an unlimited number of resources to do so. Because of this, in almost every species, males with unlimited resources compete for females with limited resources, and the females typically get to "choose" who they reproduce with. It's built into our genetic code.

As for your shyness, go outside of your comfort zone. Some of my best expriences have always occurred when I go outside of my comfort zone and experience new and strange things. Don't be afraid to go up and say hi. The worst thing you can have happen is she walks away or blows you off, but that gives you the opportunity to refine your conversational skills so that next time, you're a little more comfortable and you'll find that females really aren't all that scary.

Pal, both males and females can be shy and lack the confidence to make the first move. We all fear rejection. You can either either keep on waiting or muster up some courage to make the first move. You will impress her if you do so. Girls generally like confident guys.

it's not really a sterotype. it's just more of a tradition or trend. in your case i would just look for girls you can tell make the first moves, like loud and confident girls.

another reason why girls don't make the first move is because they're more emotional and insecure than guys.

You make some good points.

My hubby was very shy and insecure on how to approach me, so I made it a point to make him secure around me.

I was the one who kissed him first. And I'm the one who initiated sex. So, not all us gals are unwilling to make the first move.

Don't judge yourself so harshly. Looks are only secondary. Truely, it's what's in the inside that counts.

it's oldschool and the way it has been forever

many women will make the first move

but many women prefer the man make the first move, to chase her per se, it's their perception af manly

many men are taken aback by aggressive women and love the chase

if you want to find a great lady, you need to get over your insecurities and step up, the payoff will be great, accept rejection, it happens to everyone , it just a stepping stone til the right girl comes along

because guys have different attitudes toward girls maybe think the girl is annoying or just might think not cute i dunno but i think all guys should make that first move that way us girls know whats really up in their minds or if they really interested in this particular girl . dont worry many girls dont go for looks because most guys with good looks turn out to be the worst in the planet and the nice and sweet guys alrite looking. personal expierence

Perhaps they are as shy and nervous as you are.....

If she finds you attractive she might express some type of warning sign that might make the ice breaker a lot less stressful.

this is the same question asked by my friend..Girls long for attention where ever they are.They love to see guys waiting for them ..but coming to say hi ...to a guy..this is not accepted by them , they think it as a insult and sometimes , they think that the other person will then take her for granted,..i suugest u to make the first move, girls will then take over..if they like u...

...Fear of rejection.

Maybe she is the same of you, shy, nervous and self conscious.

Most of the time its even for me, you just gotta act confident, girls probably wont want to approach you if your looking like you wish you are somewhere else

its all about confidence in yourself if you appear approachable if you smile and give eye contact this is good if you hold your head down and feel you are not good enough or you feel ugly they girls wont come to you you need to like yourself more good luck xx
