My wife wanted to go on a date first.
I initiated the first kiss.
She was the first to suggest we find a motel.

He did. I don’t remember details- it was almost 35 years ago. :-)

Well, for my last relationship (about 5 years ago) she did. We were close friends for a while and I helped her through some hard times. Then one night, she kissed me out of the blue.

Though, I’m planning on making a move with someone soon…wish me luck.

Me, I let him know I really liked him and wanted him to ask me out or else it would have never happened. He asked me out and made all the other moves from there so I’m pretty sure he kind of liked for awhile too.

My spouse. I had sworn off the opposite sex so we agreed to just be friends. That lasted for about 4 months and now I cannot imagine life without him.

The first time my husband spoke to me was in a bar. He said, “Hey! Sit next to me!” I didn’t. Much to my dismay, he got up to come over and sit next to me. ;)

I did call him first, he asked me out first. I’d have to say the first kiss was equally initiated by both of us.

He was passively pursuing me for quite a while (some to my knowledge, some I was quite naive to).
Sexually, he made the first move.
I forget how exactly our “official” relationship started. I know we were in bed when he asked me out. He also told me he loved me first. And asked me to marry me. And asked me to move in. He was quite persistent. lol

I was in the garage pulling the ring and pinion and axles out of the front of my early bronco. It was a Halloween party that night, but I wanted to fix it anyway. My now wife came out to say hello. We have been friends since we were twelve. So she comes out. She bends over and looks at me. She is so pretty my heart started thumping. We spoke for a few minutes. She was going to leave when I smiled at her and said, “You know, Melissa, sometimes you look so pretty I just want to kiss you.”.
She smiled, stood up turned around and walked away. I smiled to myself and thought, “huh!”.
That night she broke up with her jerk of a boyfriend of 7 years. He had treated her badly and cheated on her several times. We have been together for over thirteen years and they have been the happiest of my life.

I came by his work at 4 am and asked where the best road in the area was to drive my new car as fast as it could go. He told me. Next night we discovered we had similar music tastes, and he got me to hang around till he got off at 5 am, and we went back to his place.

There was quite a bit of back and forth flirting, but I called him up and said “Would you like to take me out tomorrow night?” So I made the first ‘official’ move. He was the first to say he wanted a monogamous relationship, the first to say “I love you”, the first to suggest living together, and he asked me to marry him (like 5 or 6 times before I said yes!).

I’m female.

(I’m a girl)
It’s easier to just say he initiated everything… I’m hoping to break his record though. ;)

SuperMouse's avatar

I’m a girl, and it was all me baby, it was all me. He swears that I made an indecent proposal within the first couple of days after we met, but I don’t remember that at all! I do know that I was smitten the second I saw him. I felt like I was 15 again with a swooning crush. I made up my mind that minute that I would pursue him.

tinyfaery's avatar

I always make the first move. It takes me about a minute to know if I want someone. Why wait. I initiated the first kiss, first date, first sex, and I asked her to marry me. Good thing. My wife is so self-conscious and would never made a move.

Capt_Bloth's avatar

She did. I was at work and she came in with a guy. She is really hot so I naturally thought they were dating, so I made no move. In retrospect this was dumb, as the friend she was with is the most flamboyant guy I’ve ever met. She came back the next night alone, and we lived happily ever after.

He did…he winked at me. On our first date we went for a walk…never even held hands, then when we were parting I made the first move…was an awkward moment and gave him a big sloppy kiss lol. He totally denies that I made the move for the first kiss…but hey ho us women are always right!!!!

@Clair AHEM! I do believe that it was I who talked to you first missy! I think you might remember thinking “Sheesh, leave me alone you weirdo”. I was on myspace one night and saw that she would be coming to my school so I decided to welcome her. I was instantly in love and haven’t stopped bugging her yet!

We men have to do everything, gosh :P
