Do guys like it when girls ask them out first?

I lol'd Afomaru. But as for the topic, simple answer for me: Yes. It's flattering.

To be honest, I dream of a fairytail romance. I'd like to be swept of my feet by some "princess charming" one day...but I'm a guy. So that means I have to do the pursuing of a mate or "fishing" as I like to call it. Although, with my horrible luck and lack of dating experience, 99.9% of the time, I don't even get a nibble. I know it's not manly to think like that but that's just how it is with me about 60% of the time. Instead of me doing doing the pursuing, would it really be too much to have a girl see me and go "Look at that guy over there. He's so Otaku. Imma get me some o' that!" I'm not asking for a harem. Hell. I'm not even asking for sex. (though if sex does happens, YAY) I just want a girlfriend and possibly onday a wife. I know I'm not the best looking fella in the world, I'm nowhere near slim, I'm weird as hell and just as awkward to boot but damn it. I believe I should be thrown a bone every now again.

I personally be over joy if I a girl ask me out and jumping around, but I end up doing something stupid at of the surprise of the girl asking me out. Like say some thing stupid like I should be the one asking you out or something like that. I would like to be the type of person who say yes right away and not make a fool of my self right away witch ends with the girl hating me and regretting her decision to ask me out in the first place. So I think as a guy we be over joy and very surprise.

I may be odd but some guys might not have the nerve to ask some girls out, so a girl asking him out could make a shy guy's day! Good luck

I'm the type of girl that likes asking the guys out its just something I do when I know the guy is so my type and I can't let him get away LOL, I've found nothing lasting but its always a good conversation starter and who knows I might finally ask the right guy out thats perfect for me :) so I wish you the best of Luck

I did asked a guy out once, using a love letter... but that love letter was crampled and burned into pieces... I guess some guys don't like girls who makes the first initiative... :/

@mariahaise I don't know... he seems like a nice guy but... the day I gave my love letter to him is the day of their cooking class... unfortunately they don't have a charcoal so he suggested that they'll burn some scratch papers, unfortunately I saw my love letter in that papers then they burned it... after that incident I never talked to that guy again... :/
