That makes two of us, Bill...
Women usually end up waiting for a guy to walk up to them and break the ice. Understandably so because they have no idea what the guy is like and if the woman was to walk up to the guy and talk, she's afraid it might give the wrong impression that she is more interested than she really is. In other words, she's afraid the guy will think she wants to sleep with him, when all she may want is to simply have a few drinks and leave it at that.
For me, I think it boils down to being afraid of rejection and that's why it's safer to sit back and admire the girl from afar. It's a human trait to want to be in your comfort zone and walking up to a gorgeous woman and introducing yourself is stepping way outside that zone for some guys, myself included.
I'm going to try and keep this thread in mind when I am out with my friends this weekend... Maybe it will help me step outside the comfort zone.
