If you\u2019re a single female I\u2019m sure you\u2019ve heard the saying, \u201cLet The Man Do The Chasing!\u201d For many years I believed this to be true and thought that it was the man\u2019s responsibility to pursue a woman, now my view point on approaching men has changed for many reasons.<\/p>\n

One reason in particular is that women out number men, which means that men have plenty more options when it comes to choosing a partner. Ladies you could possibly be a great catch, you can have a great job, good credit, be very attractive and educated but for each one of you there are 20 more women just like you for each single man.<\/p>\n

I was having a discussion about dating with my sister and we were talking about how most women usually don\u2019t approach guys unless they initiate conversation with us first. My motto used to be that if a guy was really interested in me that he would make the first move. If you\u2019re a woman that agrees with this statement have you ever thought that maybe a guy didn\u2019t approach you because he was shy or fearful of rejection? Just like us women don\u2019t want to face rejection men certainly don\u2019t either.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve actually initated dates with guys before and I have had pretty good experiences. Most of the guys were glad that I approached them and were enthused that I showed initiative. Surprisingly when I asked them if they would have approached me first some of them said no because they figured I was already taken or wouldn\u2019t be interested.<\/p>\n

In today\u2019s society the rules of dating are changing and I don\u2019t think there is anything wrong with women going after what they want. I commend women who want to wait on what they consider to be the \u201cright guy\u201d but from my own personal experience you could definitely be missing out on meeting a really great guy just because you are unwilling to take a chance.<\/p>\n
