Why You Should Make the First Move
Contents
Hey gorgeous! So, picture this: You really like him and you are secretly hoping and wishing that he will tell you that he feels the same way. It gives you butterflies just thinking about it, right? But, it has been a while and he is not making the move. It can be super frustrating!
You find yourself wondering – should you wait until he comes forward or should you make the first move yourself? It is the age-old question, ladies.
We Want to Hear From You!
Have you ever taken the leap and confessed your feelings first? How did it feel to be that brave? Share your story in the comments below – your experience might help another woman feel brave enough to try!
3. You should go after what you desire.
Think about it this way – if you would need to apply for your dream job you would not hesitate, even with the possibility of being rejected. So why should it be different when it comes to love? It might not be so easy when it comes to making the first move with someone you like, but you owe it to yourself.
You should have in mind that if you do not ask, the answer will always be NO. Whatever the outcome will be, at least you will know that you tried and that you showed up for it. Don’t you want to say you gave it your all?
4. They might feel insecure as well.
We often tend to have so many limiting beliefs about ourselves. We worry we are not worthy enough, beautiful enough, smart enough… to be attractive to that other person we admire and like so much. But guess what? That person is human too!
They can have insecurities and doubts about themselves and fear that they would not be good enough, successful enough or attractive enough to us. For that reason, they may hesitate to express their feelings. Maybe he is just waiting for a sign from you, babe!
5. If you get rejected you will survive.
I know this is the scary part. As much as difficult it can be to deal with rejection, especially if you care deeply about that person, life will go on and you will survive. I promise you.
You will get over it and in time meet somebody else and fall in love again. Not to mention, if you are not focusing all your attention on someone who doesn’t feel the same way, you can shift your focus to another aspect in your life and new doors might open that you never expected! Dealing with rejection will only make you stronger and wiser. You got this!
So, lovely, are you ready to take that step? Life is too short to wait around wondering “what if.”
