Question for the men.. have you ever been interested in a girl, but didn’t ask for her #?
Why Some Men Don't Ask for a Girl's Number
Men may be interested in someone but hesitate to ask for their number due to shyness, uncertainty of mutual interest, or fear of rejection. Body language and actions can indicate interest even without direct conversation. Understanding astrology signs, like Aquarius, might offer insights into personality traits influencing their behavior.
Sounds Venusian
Those people don’t chase, they make people come to them
Yes.
Waiting for your answers to the questions 🤔
Oh I smile at women all the time and they smile back but that don't mean we're both interesting in each other. At least I don't feel that tension even if we know each other.
As for the question at hand, yes. But in the past. I'm settled. They had to come on to me though. And I was never interesting in getting nobody's number if we can't talk in person face to face. And I'll likely ignore texts so don't even try that.

A lot of men I noticed don’t chase these days. I guess their too cool for it. But yes he does give me that vibe. He gives me aqua/Scorpio vibe. Always staring lol But honestly maybe it’s for the best bc I’m a hopeless romantic.
Maybe intimidated or thinks the girl would never go for them.
Yes, all the time. If you checked my dating sheet you would clearly see I've only actually dated people that were exclusivity the worst. All the women I'm actually interested in get passed up. How else would I make room for all the toxic women?
Satire aside I'll be 100% honest. If women asked men for their number more often the results would be surprising. I feel modern day men have either been suffocated to the point they believe their masculinity is a negative thing, or that simply asking a woman out will instant result in a metoo case. Modern day women need to be the ones making it clear its OK for the man to chase them. If not society as whole is doomed. Many men rather be alone and take care of themselves then risk negative outcomes with dating.
Literally no reason to ask for a number when you can get everything you need on social media.
I’ve been where you are op. Dude was always hanging around, chatty, seemed interested. But I’m shit at flirting so finally I just asked him out for a drink. 7 years later we shackled ourselves to a mortgage together. So far so good.
Might as well take a chance and make a move. Could end up being the love of your life. Or could end in flames. But anything is better than regret and wondering what could’ve been.

Honestly I’m going too. I just feel super awkward around him & I don’t want him to think I’m being too forward lol

& have you ever asked him why he never asked you first ? I’m starting think maybe I should go for a more shy guy. Because the guys that are super straight forward & make a move first always end up being players.
So have you ever been interested in a girl.
But simply just didn’t want her number or anything.
Yes. I have been interested in a girl in a friendly way and in a more than friends way. Not asking for a number, can be for any reason. I can be busy with work and not have the time at the moment. I can be worried about potential drama, especially if we are in a mutual group of friends. Sometimes, life is pretty stressful and I'm not at the place where I want to put in massive effort on something new but I am enjoying the moment. On the other hand, it could be he thinks it's too soon to be too forward. Unfortunately there's no way to know. If you want to get things going so badly you can always just let him know, but be prepared for whatever answer you get.

Yeah I asked him. He said he thought I was just being friendly 🙄 I really suck at flirting.
I was the one trying to play him haha. I thought this dude is too young and good looking to be anything more than a fling. Jokes on me

No surprise he's a Gemini 😂
I don't think Gemini men feel like it is their responsibility to make the first move. We're more about seeing what happens than making things happen plus we're just not aggressive pursuers in that way. Also, we regularly talk and flirt with women without it being about wanting to hook up which some men won't even do 🤔

I’d only ever dated men who approached me first.
I kinda liked how chill he was. Affectionate and attentive in person but not super up my ass which is the kiss of death for me during early days of dating. I know Pisces are supposed to like clingy but it makes me want to bolt.
I’ve made the move with most of the men I’ve ended up in LTRs with.....
My Aries rising waits for no man until I met an Aries guy and he got in first
😃😂

& if so why not? There’s this guy that I’ve had my eye on, he has eye on me too.
I see him out a lot and every time we see each other we both get a big smile on our face and give each other a hug. He’s never asked for my name or number. But I’ll catch him staring across the room, he’ll walk up to me & ask if I’m ok. He even took up for me one time when this guy accidentally bumped into me. But he never even engages a convo. He must be an Aquarius LOL. & I remember the first time we locked eyes he instantly started smiling like we knew each other before, I’m super attracted to him & his aura.
Honestly I wanna ask him for his number but idk if he likes me because he doesn’t even try to talk to me? Maybe he’s just friendly. So have you ever been interested in a girl.
