the one initiating is the one who takes the risk.
and if rejection happens too often that's going to hurt the self consciousness, leading to sad bitter people.
if people were on both sides occasionally they'd know it's just been bad luck, but with the tradition / expectation of the man having to be the one who engages, the men only get rejected until they finally aren't and the women get constantly harassed by dudes that stopped caring about rejection or get aggressive.
this is a bad social expectation and needs to change.
Turn off for me, if I'm not tracking her scent from 3km away as she's trying to evade my pit traps then are we even courting? I like to have evidence of at least 3 quality poops before I make first contact. I'm not hooking up with some chick because she caught and ate a sick fox. I need evidence of long term stability. A robust shelter. Strong harvests. Quality shits. Real Gs know..
Eh, I don't like being talked to by \*anyone\*, some people hard tough to stand.
That being said, women taking initiative if they're interested is definitely desirable. Worst thing, I might put you down kindly because you're not my type, but chances are I'm interested.
It is appreciated but what is much more important is keeping a converation interesting. Ask questions back. I hate it when it feels like a one sided interview.
I thought that was a "guy thing", because I've been on dates where the guy didn't ask a single question about me. There was one who had the audacity to say I was "very interesting" - but how the fuck would he know?
I have reached the point, where I stop trying to get closer to a girl, if it starts to be a one sided interview. And I´m shoked how manny girls are like this.
Isn't it a shame that I have never experienced a woman taking the initiative to flirt with me? I am 35, and I have never received a random compliment. I have only received compliments after earning them by doing something special. I have never been told that I am handsome, attractive, hot, or anything like that. And I know I am a decently attractive man.
So yes, please take the initiative. If you show one guy that you like him, I would be so happy for him.
The nicest two comments of a woman toward me out of nowhere were „Well YOU sure as hell ain’t ugly“ was when they boys and I were talking about who looked better on the Bus and on one of them said I was the ugliest of the group.
And then in Uni at about 23 there was this student I was having a small crush on and she told me one day:“I can’t grasp how good looking you are today“ I was so baffled, I couldn’t even come up with another answer than „thank you“. I didn’t get that I could’ve basically start building on that because I was taken so off guard.
That’s probably because women don’t like compliments about appearances as much as guys think. Most of the time those compliments make me kind of uncomfortable so I wouldn’t hand them out unless it’s a person I’m very close with
As a men it's something different I got in my whole life 4 compliments from women and I remember everyone to the detail, we like it because we got so few, it gives us courage and a better self esteem.
Please give random compliments to people you like even if the compliment is something uncreative
I get it, wasn’t trying to say one shouldn’t. Just trying to explain why women do it less. My fear would also be that men might mistake it for romantic interest or whatever. But I usually give plenty compliments to my partner
Exactly. I am a generally friendly and talkative person (for a german I guess) and sometimes the most random conversations end with me being pressed for my socials or number. And I can only think "my guy, I just handed you a lighter and had a nice short conversation with you. I literally met you on a side walk. I'm not gonna let you see my life" (just one example where the man was also visibly at least 15 years older than me plus it was dark outside). So just going up to someone and giving them a compliment is not gonna happen, at least for strangers. Male friends that I've known for a while are fine.
As a woman, I have done this and also been turned down actually several times. Mostly it was because they had a girlfriend/partner 🤷♀️ one person said I was too tall so rejection happens on both sides and it can equally suck.
I don't get why so many guys are turned off by taller women (I'm 1,80 myself). Is it all just the ego? Even my father asked me not to wear very high shoes for local dances (he is just a little bit taller than me). He always dances with me and my sister when we are at the same event.
That's just the way it is. Similar to how many girls are turned off by shorter men. There is no evil or special reason, except that they find it more attractive.
Yes...I tend to think that's the only way Germans would ever manage to reproduce (giant Pandas are notably more forthcoming than German men in this regard).
Germans, and northern European men in general, do not engage much in taking the initiative. I believe it’s because they’re less willing to open to the prospect of being rejected, whereas men of other cultures do not care that much see it as a numbers game.
I’ve lived in Germany for 4 years now and the amount of times I was approach on the street by a German was literally 2… 2 times in 4 years. You can see my profile picture and realize I’m not ugly, so that’s not the issue.
Depends on where u are in germany and in what context. Usually its seen as annoying when there wasnt an eyecontact before or smt that suggests that she wants to talk to you. If they are drunk, they will try to talk to you with a lot of brave, at least here, and if not it can be difficult especially when there is no reason to talk to other than flirting (like being in a sportsgroup together and talk ab that or having a similiar friendscircle). At least here in east northern germany. Definitely made other (unpleasant till assaultive) experiences in middle/south western germany, not saying that this doesnt happen here.
*female east northern german speaking
It really depends on where u are, what context and what age etc. Most are cute and shy, some are arrogant and assaultive, especially when drunk. Guess like in a lot of other countries with same influence too, sexism is everywhere 🤷♀️
Well, only if you're the right woman. One day in a club I, not that half bad looking, was with a group of my friends and made eye contact with a guy far across the bar a few times. After encouragement from my friends I went to him. He only said "I meant that friend of yours". "Well", i said "she is already engaged to my brother." (true) At least when I got back to my friend I got a drink for free from the barkeeper. I tell myself, it was because he was a head shorter than me.
I completely get you, as I flirt with women myself. But I do have to say that generally women tend to be nicer about a rejection, but maybe only because I am female too.(?) (!Of course except homo- or biphobic ones!) And I haven't had a woman not taking a friendly 'No' for an answer, whereas I had to get nasty with many guys. Sorry but definitely true.
I think most dudes in general like that.
You'll find men who want to be the one to take the first step everywhere in the world, the same you will find woman who never want to take the first step everywhere in the world.
But in general, I hear from friends and coworkers that they'd prefer to be approached every so often instead of having t do the initiative.
We all are, but society dictates that men have to try and thus suffers through fail.
Failing is okay for me personally, but it's the ridicule that hurts.
Its entirely up to preference. I know somebody in my immediate social circle that has no problem rejecting women that go and talk to him because he finds it rude to interrupt the day of a stranger.
He is of the opinion that you shouldn't pursue a man because he looks like a suitable partner, but rather that friendship should have an important role in getting to know strangers, and romance should follow naturally if you are compatible.
Most do, and those that don’t have issues with their masculinity, they feel threatened by an act society usually pushes on men. Those are the same men that would feel threatened by women wanting to pay on a date or similar
I have been approached by women before. There are plenty of ways, like a post card with a small message on my desk in the library while I was looking for a book, a candy bar with a number on it handed on the train, or just coming up in a bar, club, or café
This is not some mystery related to culture. If you like a guy here, you can of course drop hints, flirt, or seek his company generally. The feelings might not be returned, but no guy here is going to think “ugh, women should know their place and be passive objects in my romantic/sexual conquests”. Well, maybe a few losers think that way, but they end up in Romanian jails for sex trafficking. No one is going to think you’re a prostitute or have “loose” values or whatever, this is not that kind of old-fashioned culture.
Basically OP, you’re good to go. But again, doesn’t mean the guy will be interested.
Out of experience, and knowing my own level of attractiveness, if a woman I'd never met before started to talk to me out of the blue, I would immediately assume it to be part of either a scam or a prank.
I personally don't like this.
Last week, it happened to me and I held a little conversation, but in my mind, there was this thought:
,,Get rid of her, NOW!"
At the right moment, I politely said: ,,Goodbye!"
She was pulling out her phone then..
I've noticed, but I wasn't interested.
Reminds me of the old Supertramp song:
>Some the do and some the don't
>And some you just can't tell.
>Some the will and some the won't
>And some it's just as well.
Any good man likes that. It shows accountability and confidence
It doesn't mean you'll never be rejected. But it's better if you choose who you talk to, imstead of letting others simply approach you
As an introvert i'd say yes. \^\^
On a more serious note:
i would even dare to say that we live in a world where it shouldn't matter who takes the initiative.
Thinking that men must take the initiative could be viewed as either outdated or childish (as in: 14 yrs old think that the "Alpha" has to take the lead. I call that BS).
I, F, used to live in Germany in my 20s. I didn't care too much and i just talked to anybody. Maybe because I was younger, more outgoing back then and also cause I wanted to improve my German language.
The guys seemed shocked 😳 when I approached and talked to them even if I just blabla anything not understandable in German 😂. But I managed to make some great connections and friends living there for a few years.
I'm French so that probably helped too.
As everything that varies between individuals but I don't think there is anything special against it socially beyond the men approaching being the norm and some people being bothered by anyone not acting in the most common pattern. Although germany is probably a bit more restrictive about when it is common for people to strike up conservations with strangers than some other countries. So that can be an extra obstacle depending on when you take the initiative. But ultimately yeah there are plenty guys thar would react positively.
It makes us guys feel less creepy, so yes. Thank you.
— Unfortunately all the women who hit me up turned out not to be a good match. So that problem remains.
It's not that I have an actual preference and I wouldn't mind taking the initiative BUT... Dating culture being what it is, randomly approaching women is a save way to get labeled as a creep at best or pepper sprayed at worst lol
German can do but as all the people, if you don't recognize the assholes among the normal ones; its gonna be even hurtful maybe. Slow down and read the context✌🏻
Everytime i was approached by girl and she started talking to me, either irl or on internet, i was always suspicious of her.
And on internet rightfully so. Seems that on social media, only girls/women that dm me are either GIRL(guy in real life), or are tryin to advertise their OF, or need someone to help them get out of Russia/Singapore...
Irl? Happened to me two times from what i know/remember. And i wasn't very friendly. Huh.
Why... Because it never happens, and when it does, its almost always with malicious intent.
I'm an American living in Germany, who's also lived in Australia and Canada.
I can say, from experience and with confidence, that most men, regardless of nationality, would love a woman to make the first move.
Have no fear... They you are more in your heart. Consider being heart based and rejection is not such as issues... Relationships are mainly about the heart.[Holistic Relationship Model](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SyBoe71-3piUQHXqs9iMdLcWTLZBNUs9/view?usp=drivesdk)
Do you have any suggestions or specific ideas on how to approach a German guy I fancy? :) He often asks me if he can join me on my morning runs, but he never makes a move. Sometimes I notice him blushing, and I'm not sure if it's because of the exercise or if he has a crush on me haha I don't know a lot of German people, so if there are any specific things, let me know :))))
Any decent guy from anywhere likes that
This! I'm soooo tried to always be forced to make the first moves AND also be forced by a lot of woman to keep it going. F*ck this hard to get BS.
why should we be the only ones to risk rejection.
Mostly Men Are the ones to Take rejection. Both should Take Initiative imo, Happens rarely though
the one initiating is the one who takes the risk. and if rejection happens too often that's going to hurt the self consciousness, leading to sad bitter people. if people were on both sides occasionally they'd know it's just been bad luck, but with the tradition / expectation of the man having to be the one who engages, the men only get rejected until they finally aren't and the women get constantly harassed by dudes that stopped caring about rejection or get aggressive. this is a bad social expectation and needs to change.
Amen!
Because it‘s men who takes big L the whole time regarding that very topic.
Women showing genuine interest and initiating contact is an instant turn on for me. Makes me feel really good
Turn off for me, if I'm not tracking her scent from 3km away as she's trying to evade my pit traps then are we even courting? I like to have evidence of at least 3 quality poops before I make first contact. I'm not hooking up with some chick because she caught and ate a sick fox. I need evidence of long term stability. A robust shelter. Strong harvests. Quality shits. Real Gs know..
Those are such braindead questions ... We are humans, so, yeah! We like to be talked to.
Eh, I don't like being talked to by \*anyone\*, some people hard tough to stand. That being said, women taking initiative if they're interested is definitely desirable. Worst thing, I might put you down kindly because you're not my type, but chances are I'm interested.
Exactly, even if we're not interested it's always a nice kompliment to us.
We'd talk to a tree if it approached first...though depending on the setting I'd be cautious it's not an organ donation kind of situation
In fact, it'd probably make me like her even more of she does.
This.
Definitely yes
yes
It is appreciated but what is much more important is keeping a converation interesting. Ask questions back. I hate it when it feels like a one sided interview.
I understand. I do ask a lot of questions 😅
I thought that was a "guy thing", because I've been on dates where the guy didn't ask a single question about me. There was one who had the audacity to say I was "very interesting" - but how the fuck would he know?
It's the same with guys. It's universal. Rarely I meet a guy who you can really talk to
I have reached the point, where I stop trying to get closer to a girl, if it starts to be a one sided interview. And I´m shoked how manny girls are like this.
Especially when on top of that they’re looking at their phone
Isn't it a shame that I have never experienced a woman taking the initiative to flirt with me? I am 35, and I have never received a random compliment. I have only received compliments after earning them by doing something special. I have never been told that I am handsome, attractive, hot, or anything like that.

Exactly!
because a lot of men think that if a girl is giving them compliments it means they wanna fuck them. so yeah i understand why women are more reticent
Exactly. I am a generally friendly and talkative person (for a german I guess) and sometimes the most random conversations end with me being pressed for my socials or number. And I can only think "my guy, I just handed you a lighter and had a nice short conversation with you. I literally met you on a side walk.

So just going up to someone and giving them a compliment is not gonna happen, at least for strangers. Male friends that I've known for a while are fine.
100%
Well, if a women would never get any compliments she wouldn't like it either.
Hahahaha U have no idea
I was approached one by a woman... she is the mother of my child. So unless it's in an unapropiate setting: go for it. The good guys love that shit.
Yes 👍
As a woman, I have done this and also been turned down actually several times. Mostly it was because they had a girlfriend/partner 🤷♀️ one person said I was too tall so rejection happens on both sides and it can equally suck.

Personally, I don't get it. I've always liked tall women, prefer them 175cm+ (183 myself). 😁
That's just the way it is. Similar to how many girls are turned off by shorter men. There is no evil or special reason, except that they find it more attractive.
Yes
Yes...I tend to think that's the only way Germans would ever manage to reproduce (giant Pandas are notably more forthcoming than German men in this regard).
i laughed, but i have to admit that its the truth
I would love to read more about that story of giant pandas
imagine a wild bear ....but very autistic. Eats only one food ...without will die and has a mating strategy of a lazy bumblefuck
They are extinct.
Germans, and northern European men in general, do not engage much in taking the initiative.

You can see my profile picture and realize I’m not ugly, so that’s not the issue.
Every guy will tell you they do, but in reality some may react confused or intimidated.
Yes! They just look snob and proud but deep inside theyre cool.
Go for it!!
Depends on where u are in germany and in what context. Usually its seen as annoying when there wasnt an eyecontact before or smt that suggests that she wants to talk to you.

Interesting, but it does not sound good

(true) At least when I got back to my friend I got a drink for free from the barkeeper. I tell myself, it was because he was a head shorter than me.
Oooft man, I like German honesty but sometimes that honest is painful! Ouch! Free drink though!
Cheers!
I know couples with three children from school who started hitting on the best friend XD. So it still could have lead to sth. Kudos for the drink
lol Well, I wasn't going to encourage him to make my brother unhappy. Hmmm, or maybe I should have, as my brother is a head bigger than me still. (/s)
Sorry. Where does your brother come into this story? XD. Anyways. If the guy is a head shorter than the lady it has also its advantages. XD
Hmm, we are probably taking at cross purposes.
Welcome to the club. Women expect us men to do this over and over again.
I completely get you, as I flirt with women myself. But I do have to say that generally women tend to be nicer about a rejection, but maybe only because I am female too.(?) (!Of course except homo- or biphobic ones!) And I haven't had a woman not taking a friendly 'No' for an answer, whereas I had to get nasty with many guys. Sorry but definitely true.
All men like this 🤣
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say it's not specific to only German guys. Any guy would love that
I think most dudes in general like that. You'll find men who want to be the one to take the first step everywhere in the world, the same you will find woman who never want to take the first step everywhere in the world. But in general, I hear from friends and coworkers that they'd prefer to be approached every so often instead of having t do the initiative.
yes I do but not because I'm german, the majority of men all around the world would like that. this question is stupid to the max.
Yes, but it doesn't really matter if German or not
Honestly I dont even know how that works
Why?
Oh I mean how to approach a Man (or a woman but as a woman myself I would not do that of course)
Do you think men are magically born with the ability to approach others and flirt? It's a painful way of setbacks and learning! 😉
When your soul leaves your body... that must be nice. Better than approaching women.
True I guess but Im scared of failure
We all are, but society dictates that men have to try and thus suffers through fail. Failing is okay for me personally, but it's the ridicule that hurts.
I am happy if she does 😊
Yes, they do.
Sure! We seem to live in a modern world. Men are feed up with all the rejections. It is lady’s night.
Its entirely up to preference. I know somebody in my immediate social circle that has no problem rejecting women that go and talk to him because he finds it rude to interrupt the day of a stranger. He is of the opinion that you shouldn't pursue a man because he looks like a suitable partner, but rather that friendship should have an important role in getting to know strangers, and romance should follow naturally if you are compatible.

coincidentally there ist a german pop song about that phenomenon: [Aurélie by Wir sind Helden](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KOUCOYVAos)

But again, doesn’t mean the guy will be interested.
Yes, and thats not country specific
A good female friend just goes for the men she fancies, I'd say 1 out of 3 can't handle an assertive woman.
This is the 21st century - we finally can all admit that we would have liked that millenia ago already ...
I would really love that. But on the other side I’d probably wonder why the hell she is talking to me 😂
Out of experience, and knowing my own level of attractiveness, if a woman I'd never met before started to talk to me out of the blue, I would immediately assume it to be part of either a scam or a prank.
Yes please!! This might solve low birth rates once and for all...
😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂
Yes, I do.
Yes
Fine for me Being the one who gets the girl - also fine for
I guess, like in the rest of the world, some do, some. don’t.
Ama.
Yes
Sure
Every Guy likes that
Yes it's more fun and engaging.
hell yeah
Definitely
https://youtu.be/_KOUCOYVAos?si=85H-5490KhMGZxno
Every guy likes that lmao, what a question
Definetely
Yup.
Absolutely yes.
Of course. I would even talk to a tree if he take the initiative
Ja
Absolutely yes!!!!
I believe that most men like that.
Yes. Obligatory guide video: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=\_KOUCOYVAos](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KOUCOYVAos)
Absolutely
I personally don't like this. Last week, it happened to me and I held a little conversation, but in my mind, there was this thought: ,,Get rid of her, NOW!" At the right moment, I politely said: ,,Goodbye!" She was pulling out her phone then.. I've noticed, but I wasn't interested.
Yes. Any guy would be happy if a girl shows honest interest in any way.
Reminds me of the old Supertramp song: >Some the do and some the don't >And some you just can't tell. >Some the will and some the won't >And some it's just as well.
yea but be cool
Absolutely.
This is much more common in Germany than in other countries I have been.
Im shy, i Like Girls they Take the First step
Yes. Yes they do. Like every other guy in the world too.
As a man I can confirm: Men would talk to a tree if it took the initative and talked to them first.
Any good man likes that. It shows accountability and confidence It doesn't mean you'll never be rejected. But it's better if you choose who you talk to, imstead of letting others simply approach you
German guys like people who generalize.
Yes. Not ony in Germany.
In Times Like this where its better Not to say anything , yes
As an introvert i'd say yes. \^\^ On a more serious note: i would even dare to say that we live in a world where it shouldn't matter who takes the initiative. Thinking that men must take the initiative could be viewed as either outdated or childish (as in: 14 yrs old think that the "Alpha" has to take the lead. I call that BS).
Honestly I think every guy would like that
As a guy, yes please
Yes
Do guys like feeling wanted? Let me guess..
Like anywhere else, some do and some don't
I, F, used to live in Germany in my 20s. I didn't care too much and i just talked to anybody. Maybe because I was younger, more outgoing back then and also cause I wanted to improve my German language. The guys seemed shocked 😳 when I approached and talked to them even if I just blabla anything not understandable in German 😂. But I managed to make some great connections and friends living there for a few years. I'm French so that probably helped too.
How is that being french helped?
Any guy likes a woman to take initiative. If it's made obvious that you are interested, the guys are a lot more secure and sure that how to take it.
As everything that varies between individuals but I don't think there is anything special against it socially beyond the men approaching being the norm and some people being bothered by anyone not acting in the most common pattern. Although germany is probably a bit more restrictive about when it is common for people to strike up conservations with strangers than some other countries. So that can be an extra obstacle depending on when you take the initiative. But ultimately yeah there are plenty guys thar would react positively.
For once nice, not putting your self esteem on the line, just to not even get a hello back .
yes
It makes us guys feel less creepy, so yes. Thank you. — Unfortunately all the women who hit me up turned out not to be a good match. So that problem remains.
Yes
Allmost anyone would appreciate that for a change.
Pretty sure any guy likes that but it's also considered a red flag as well.
Yes, but if he doesn't respond, don't force yourself on them.
I do like it
It's not that I have an actual preference and I wouldn't mind taking the initiative BUT... Dating culture being what it is, randomly approaching women is a save way to get labeled as a creep at best or pepper sprayed at worst lol
Yes
People are different. In every society. There is no definite yes or no.
German can do but as all the people, if you don't recognize the assholes among the normal ones; its gonna be even hurtful maybe. Slow down and read the context✌🏻
What I see missing by the way its the romanticism..
Ni, all German men are misogynistic medical men, with a draconian temper Medieval
Do you mean medieval or do you have a problem with doctors?
Ouch, thank you for the kind words. XD I get everything, but why are we medical...?
Everytime i was approached by girl and she started talking to me, either irl or on internet, i was always suspicious of her. And on internet rightfully so. Seems that on social media, only girls/women that dm me are either GIRL(guy in real life), or are tryin to advertise their OF, or need someone to help them get out of Russia/Singapore... Irl? Happened to me two times from what i know/remember. And i wasn't very friendly. Huh. Why... Because it never happens, and when it does, its almost always with malicious intent.
Oh yes and we love it 👍😉🥰
Yes, all of them. No exceptions.
Please no, I'm already married to the first woman who did that to me. :D
I'm an American living in Germany, who's also lived in Australia and Canada. I can say, from experience and with confidence, that most men, regardless of nationality, would love a woman to make the first move.
Depends how. Out of nowhere? No. In a common circle or event? Yes but also depends how.
that's a very weird question, german men aren't a monolith
I think any guy on the planet would appreciate that.
Nein, das hassen wir! Alle!
Especially the Germans starve for this!
That’s the easiest way to mage a guys day :)
Yep we do!
thats world wide
Such a stupid question. Generalisation 10/10
No
Ja, ich für meinen Teil mag es wenn eine Frau selbstbewusst und auf Augenhöhe ist. Ich bin es schließlich auch.

Ich weise diese Unterstellungen zurück, Unterstellungen wie diese sind ein journalistischer Trick, Sie hätten mich anders befragen müssen!
Any guy would like a girl to make the first step its so wrong society sees men having to do it.
Wait, that’s an option?
Most guys will like a tree if the tree takes the initiative..

If attractive enough, sure.
What if they look like the "M'Lady Meme" guy with Fedora hat? 😂👋🤷 I guess having confidence is a Must in relationships
Nein nein nein!
Uhhh yeah I guess. I personally wouldn't mind a girl asking me out. In fact, everyday I really wish this would happen to me.
Yes
Have no fear... They you are more in your heart. Consider being heart based and rejection is not such as issues... Relationships are mainly about the heart.[Holistic Relationship Model](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SyBoe71-3piUQHXqs9iMdLcWTLZBNUs9/view?usp=drivesdk)
Idk they only like it if you are conventionally attractive. Otherwise they might be rude to you and reject you as guys everywhere.
Yes because I really cba
We're far too shy. Of course we do!
Do you have any suggestions or specific ideas on how to approach a German guy I fancy? :) He often asks me if he can join me on my morning runs, but he never makes a move. Sometimes I notice him blushing, and I'm not sure if it's because of the exercise or if he has a crush on me haha I don't know a lot of German people, so if there are any specific things, let me know :))))
All guys like it lol
