Why do some men NOT TAKE INITIATIVE? — discover some possible reasons

If you’re reading this post, it’s certainly because you’ve been dating a man for a while now, and apparently, everything is going great between you, except for one thing: that you always have to be the one to take the initiative in the relationship.

That is, it is always you who organizes appointments, it is you who calls first or starts a conversation on Whatsapp, etc. It’s normal that if this kind of situation is happening in your relationship that you can’t help but ask yourself:

“Why does he never take the initiative?”

There are many reasons why a man doesn’t take the initiative in a relationship. If you want to have an answer to your question, keep reading this article from I fell in lovein which we will explain why your boyfriend/husband never takes the initiative in your relationship.

1. He doesn’t like you enough

One of the main reasons a man doesn’t take the initiative is because he might not like you enough to be interested. It is possible that he is with you because you are a very beautiful and interesting girl, but he doesn’t feel anything else for you.

That’s why when you tell him to stay, he accepts, but because he enjoys your company. However, if he doesn’t stay with you, he won’t miss him either.

Sometimes love is so unfair, and as interesting as a person may seem, we can’t have stronger feelings for them.

If you find yourself in a situation where a guy doesn’t take the initiative because he only wants you for a while, it’s better to stop there.

Little by little you may develop stronger feelings for this person and have difficulties because this man cannot respond to you in the same way.

2. He thinks you don’t like him

Another reason why a man doesn’t take the initiative in a relationship is the exact opposite of what was explained above: you like him a lot, but he doesn’t think so.

A lot of guys are afraid of being rejected (especially if their previous love experiences were a little traumatic), so if they don’t see much initiative or interest on your part, they’ll end up thinking you don’t feel interested in them.

Therefore, as they think that if they are released, they will suffer a sentimental blow, they directly decide not to take a step with the girl they like.

If you think this is the case for you, the best thing you can do is give him a sign that you really like him (this post can show you how to do it). In this way, little by little he will take more initiative with you.

3. He’s not ready for a relationship yet

Among the reasons why a man doesn’t take the initiative with you is also the possibility that he’s not having a good time starting a relationship with someone.

That doesn’t mean that you don’t attract him or even that he doesn’t feel something for you, but he doesn’t want to take any further steps because he’s going through a bad time and has now, as his top priority, recovering to be the even from before.

In this case, the only possibilities you have are to let it go and turn the page, or be patient and wait for the guy to be ready to be with you again. However, if you make this decision, it’s important that you think ahead of time whether or not it’s worth waiting until he wants to take the initiative with you.

4. He is extremely shy

Some men don’t take the initiative with a girl because they are extremely shy. Here are some signs that will tell you if he is really like this:

• He gets nervous when he talks to you: if he stutters or every minute he tenses up when he speaks, it is because he is nervous in your presence.
• Excessive sweating: another symptom is that every time he has to make some kind of decision, especially if it’s about the relationship, he starts to sweat excessively.
• Overreactions: To hide their shyness, many men try to talk more than usual or use unnatural gestures to get your attention.
