Should a girl be the one to bring up getting into a LTR or should a guy? If a guy does, doesn't automatically giver power in the beginning to the girl? If the girl does then the guy has the power up front? I think when a guy brings up something like that a girl will got all defensive and you will lose and look like a chump to her cause you look weak. I just seem to think that a guy will be in a better position at least in the beginning if the girl is asking to be with him and he therefore knows that she wants it and is not doing it cause she doesnt want to say no. Any other ideas?
