Never had a girlfriend and don't know how to make a move

A male age 30-35, *lysses writes:

I don't know how to make a move on a girl. I was alone with a girl who might like me but I didn't know what to do and ran out of things to say and then there was a long spate of terrible awkward silence.

The problem is that I have never had a girlfriend or kissed a girl so i don't know what the "signs" are. And I think that a lot of girls have lost interest in me because I did not approach or attack them.

I have different morals and behavior than most guys (http://www.dearcupid.org/question/is-physical-pleasure-the-most-important-thing-about.html) and I think this mentality is holding me back and keeping me soft(pun intended). What steps can I take to being more aggressive towards women. I am not afraid of them, I just can't or don't know how to make a move.

ulysses is verified as being by the original poster of the question

ulysses agony auntThank you for the replies. My problem is that I don't know how to MAC on girls. I can talk and even flirt just fine but if I have to talk with the intention to get their number or go out with them I choke. And the girl I was with last night liked me. We were alone in the house and I had no idea what to do , i was thinking do i put my arm around her, kiss her. I have never done any of those things and I didn't want to embarrass myself by going for it and then being rejected.

Some time ago a younger guy made a move on me at a party, it was a sort of lunge, attempted kiss...and I said I was very flattered but he was a young good looking guy and what was he doing! He blurted out that he just wanted to experience a few things as was inexperienced, and found me attractive. ....

We had a lovely night, and both went our separate ways ....

with a pleasant confidence boost!

You also sound exactly like the boy I liked!

Please just say something...anything! Just say hi. I known it's easier said than done but I think just a simple hello will get a conversation going or show the person you have interest in them! Don't live with the regret of what could've happened if just said something. If she likes you too chances are she's shy and nervous too!

Good luck

Lol you sound just like the guy I like.

I will tell you from my experience - if you like her, tell her already!

Making her wait for a long time is not going to help anyone, especially you, it is not good not knowing and having this big regret on your shoulders for the rest of your life.
