I don't think I have a chance with this guy I like?

Give up should never be in any human being's vocabulary--since it says a lot of how they view themselves--

Give up without a fight--is never a good thing.

Just saying.

giving up is a bad way of saying it, giving in is better. you are giving in to the fact that he might be too high maintenance for you, that's okay. Not everyone can meet our needs, and vice versa. if he doesn't find you beautiful, and if he doesn't initiate, i would give in. A man like this needs to love a woman wholeheartedly in order for it to work... making it about who loves him, is futile. Let him sense your interest and make one opportunity..that's it

A strong man is looking for a strong woman - he's not overly concerned with looks.

May I suggest that the first question to ask yourself when considering whether or not to date someone is, “Is this person a strong person?” If they’re not, no matter how much you like them, how much they like you, or how “cute” or “hot” they are, - please don’t date them. A strong person has good character (honesty, integrity, trustworthiness), displays a positive attitude (cheerful, caring, friendly, forgiving, helpful, and respectful), fulfills their responsibilities (for handling pains in a positive way, for always trying to make a good choice, for taking care of themselves, for serving others), gives their best effort, and demonstrates self-control (of their body, anger, tongue and money). A strong person isn't overly concerned with what weak people say, do, or think.

My suggestion is that you put in the effort necessary to become a strong person (if you’re not already), forget about this guy unless he’s a strong person, and eventually look for this type of guy (otherwise you are setting yourself up for a broken heart). Unfortunately this type of man is difficult to find – but save yourself the heartache and don’t settle for less.

(Please remember that you eventually want a 50 or 60 year marriage - not a 5 or 10 year marriage.)

Hope this helps!

PS The best way to get to know a strong man without dating is to participate in the activities of a community service organization or a religious organization.

If you give up on this guy then you will believe that your not good enough for the next guy that comes along and you will fall into a pattern. That destroys your self confidence, so stop thinking you don't stand a chance, take a deep breath and go for it.
