Find love after 40 with Renée Suzanne

71. Are you in a fantasy relationship?

Are you in love with a man who hasn’t asked you out?

Maybe you’re crushing on him from afar.

Maybe he’s a friend, colleague or you see him around every now and again.

He’s polite, chats with you, maybe even flirts a bit, but he never asks you out.

He doesn’t even ask for your number or suggest staying in touch in any way.

But you wonder, could there be something there?

Well, you probably know what I’m going to say next if you’ve been listening to this podcast for any length of time…..

I’ve been there.

So many times.

So have many of my friends and clients. 

And I’ve never once seen this kind of thing turn into anything but a painful embarrassing mess.

Is it OK to ask him out, offer your number, or suggest some sort of meeting that you manage to convince yourself isn’t really asking him out?

Of course it is!

You are a grown woman and you are free to do whatever you wish.

Just don’t be surprised when it doesn’t go the way you would like.

I am attempting to spare you this pain which I have experienced way too many times because I can be unbelievably stubborn.

Here’s why this is a bad idea.

Men like it when things are their idea.

Grown men, men who are brave, chivalrous and like to earn things in life instead of having things handed to them, ie the kinds of men you want to date, don’t want to be treated like babies.

They like challenging things like sports, rock climbing and achieving big goals.

They want to dream and scheme about how they’re going to ask you out, ask you to be their girlfriend, propose to you.

They want to shoot for the moon.

Don’t take that away from them!

And if he’s not dreaming up a way to ask you out, it’s not because he’s worried you’re out of his league.

Guys ask women out who are out of their league all day long.

You have probably experienced this for yourself.

I bet the last time you tried online dating you had an inbox full of this.

So instead of trying to go after a man who isn’t interested in dating you, I highly recommend that you find a man who is.

It’s way more fun than nursing crushes on men who never ask you out.

Not that I would know.


I have a great resource to help you create your very own custom man plan so that you can find a quality man ASAP.
