My friend asked me something the other night that kept me pondering for a couple of days. She told me theres this guy who asked her to be his girlfriend after knowing her for a month or so. He gave her 2 weeks to think about it and give him a yes or no. She's amazed with the speed guys fall in love with girls and actually gave her a time frame to make up her mind. I personally feel that giving someone a time frame to decide on things concerning feelings is pretty lame. It sounds more like a threat to me than an offer. What people actually mean when they give you a period of time to consider whether to go into relationship is "make the decision or I'll go look for another pasture". Some girls will get intimidated and jump into the relationship just like that. They might like that guy as well but couldn't be sure. If they're not confident about themselves and have a negative thoughts like they're not gonna meet another person they like, vice versa, they will tend to give in to their "threats". Giving time frame for things like that are pretty dumb and ridiculous. Girls are usually quite sensitive to things like that. I'm sure they will know if someone likes them, though occasionally confused. All you have to do is ask at an appropriate time. How then you'll consider appropriate? No idea, this one you figure it out yourself.

Next we will look into why guys tend to ask for a relationship so soon? You think they're abit gancheong when they ask you to be their gf when they barely know you? Ok, lemme explain how the guys in Zingapore think. Since its our national beauty to be Kiasu, they have to uphold that image as well. They're not sure if you're gonna be the one, so they wanna chop you first and slowly find out. They are afraid if they dont chop u first they might lose out to the others who are bold enough to pose that question. Alot of 'what ifs' are going thru their mind, and its those 'what ifs' that drove them to pose that 'ai kia steady mai' question when they merely know you for 2 weeks. So next time, if a guy pose that question to you when they only know you for awhile, dont get the impression they just wanna get you in bed asap. They just wanna chop you first so that no one else can be with you when they get to know you better. It sound selfish but all kiasu behaviors are selfish, isnt it? Anyway I'm only pointing out one single possibility out of many, the rest still have to depend on your luck. Time is definitely not a factor in courtship/relationship, but luck is.
