Are you the nervous type?

Often a little nervous, but it doesn't generally stop me 4 (44.4%)
Hardly nervous at all 3 (33.3%)
I've never cared enough about relationships to do the asking, so I don't know 1 (11.1%)

This is mostly for the guys, but I'm curious to see what the girls of the board say too.
Why are so many people TERRIFIED of asking people out on dates? Fear of rejection? :o

for me it depends on who it is.

like for instance, theres this one girl who goes to my school that i'm really into, but afraid to, i guess, "ask out".

but for other people it isn't a problem for me at all.
i'm not even close to the shy type, or the nervous type.
but when it comes to certain people(ie-the afformentioned girl) i just can't do it.

but yeah, its the whole fear of rejection thing that gets me, i suppose.

Well, I'm not nervous when I do but I grew up with nothing but girls and can tell when a girl is interested or not. And if I see she doesn't want anything to do with me I move on without asking and am supremely confident anytime I do ask someone out. I guess I'm a cheater.

I don't know WHY people get nervous. I mean, it's either you're gonna get a yes or a no. It's not the end of the world either way.

Ionno how old you guys are, but if it matters after the age of 20, you're really restricting yourself.

I'd have to find someone who I actually would like to ask out. Then I'll let you know.
