A motley assortment of interesting (?) things

You first.. Umm no, you first..

Strange that I should read two Blog entries in two days, both linked from Shiv's blog. Both talk about something very different and then both gravitate to the all-important question. Should/Can the girl make a first move?

One post by a guy asks the question "Why cant it be that a girl just goes ahead and asks out the guy." The second entry by a gurl says "I believe that the guy should make the first move". Keshi's post has 70 odd comments now, with people going with and against girls making the first move..

First look says:

9 votes for Girls shouldn't hesitate to make the first move.
6 for Girls should NOT make the first move.

A little more investigation reveals something far more interesting though.. Of the 9 votes that are pro-girl-moves-first, 7 are guys. Of the 6 that are no-girl-first move, 5 are girls.

In conclusion:
Girls, Guys want you to make the first move.
Guys, Girls want YOU to do it.

Go Figure!


PS: now I gotta figure out how to post a poll on these blogs :p

It cannot b concluded tht gals/guys shud take the lead. I guess its more abt the individual's attitude..

Welcome here!

I think the real problem/concern is that everyone, I repeat, *everyone* is afraid of rejection.

I know I am :p

Shiv said...

Number 1. Rejection. Yeah. Accepted.
But Number 2. The state of the relationship after the proposal. We cant be sure that the frdship (if it had been a real close one!) wud continue as before. And tat is the main thing that ppl are worried abt. Or atleast I am.
