I asked out a dude today! I used to have a rule against doing that because idk, I used to think men go for what they want and maybe I'm not what he wants so that's why he isn't asking me out. But I get the impression men are shy of doing that now idk 🤷‍♀️

This dude was married, which tracks because I'm in a town where everyone gets married by 20 😅 but it's ok it's important to shoot your shot even when the odds are low!

Am having consolation margaritas and tacos now. One day the prophecy will be fulfilled 🙌🌮🙌

I feel like something shifted in culture where a percentage of guys lost the cultural knowledge of how to ask a woman out. They're too unpracticed, shy, scared to offend, clumsy with the pass, or whatever. Even when they're feeling the vibes, they don't trust it enough to go for it.

This will make me seem old (I am old), but maybe it's dating apps? Maybe having dedicated spaces in which we shoot our shot from a distance took guys out of the in-person game. I dunno. But something happened.

I agree with you that something shifted. That's why I'm trying to do my part and like, Sadie Hawkins things I guess? 😅

I'm sure things will get to a point of normalization eventually, but being on the cutting edge of technology adaptation is not always a good thing. The culture is all confused now. But like a snow globe shaken up I'm sure things will eventually settle.
