Some people who know me may not consider me shy, but nonetheless, I hate
rejection as much or more than anyone else. I therefore appreciate it
when a woman takes the risk of rejection by initiating dating, touching,
or sex. Assuming she is a woman I am interested in, of course!

I am often frustrated by relationships where the woman expects me to
make all the choices. I would really like to have a relationship where,
over the long run, decisions, risks, and various other give and takes
worked out to be about 50-50. Actually, it doesn't have to actually be
50-50 as long as it *feels* like it's 50-50!
