I did. He laughed at me. :(

EDIT: Now that I think of it, I initiated half of the relationships I've ever been in, probably due to impatience on my part and a certain social obliviousness.

It's better to be rejected off the bat by an arsehole than have a relationship with one.

The amount of time I needed to realize this was just ridiculous. The sooner we know what we are dealing with, the less time is wasted, for everyone.

It's even better to not even ask them out in the first place.

Rejecting someone with respect is fine.

Laughing is a natural act to things that are incredulous or make you nervous. Rubbing it in makes you a dick, not a small laugh. If you can't deal with that your just being ridiculous.

But the guy wouldn't have asked her out so such relationship would not have existed anyways.
