GeekyGamerZack Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Wow, I think I had a moment of some kind. I was lined up at the cinema, and I saw a guy behind the counter serving a customer. My first thought was, "Wow, he's cute." As it happened, he was the one to serve me when I bought my ticket, and I was babbling. As in not able to form a coherent sentence, and forcing myself to cobble one together. It didn't help that he was friendly; in fact, I think it only made the babbling worse. When I went back to redeem my free popcorn, the same guy served me. Again. He must've thought...you know what? I don't know what he thought. All I know is that I may have had my first real crush at the age of 30. (Or was it a squish? Whatever it was, it was a moment.) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's exactly what I was thinking! I mean, his niceness was what really started the whole thing, but there was definitely an initial attraction... 😊 Still, it's hard to be attracted to a guy and not know if he's attracted in return. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I just realised that I had (and apparently still have...) a crush on one of my friends. he was always awesome and nice to me, but I doubt he was ever attracted to guys. now I have absolutely no chance to get to know anyway. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Éadweard Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 I agree. I don’t see that as a crush. It’s more an infatuation. For me when I see some guy really good looking I don’t have sexual or romantic feelings but I do desperately want to be friends with them based on how they look. Weird I know. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Weren’t you engaged and wanted to marry? Did something change about that during the time I wasn’t on AVEN? nah the only thing that has changed is that I'm in Belgium now nothing has changed between me and my bf as he is the biggest love of my life, but I guess I was somewhere between squish and crush anyway. I have no chance to ask my friend what he feels, though. he passed away two weeks ago. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GeekyGamerZack Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Okay, I've had girls flirt with me in the past (even if it DID take a decade before I figured it out 😅 ), but how can you tell if a guy is flirting? A lot of guys are nice to me (I guess it's 'cause I try to be nice myself 😊 ), but I honestly couldn't say if any of them are flirting... Also, I'm wary about asking anyone out in case they reject me, so that makes it even more awkward. 😕 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
3isdfj2948324u3ugjeru Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 @GeekyGamerZack, it’s easier than you think, in most cases. Tell-tale signs of a guy flirting with you may include: - them going out of their way to prolong the interaction longer than necessary, - overlooking the mistakes you make and “over appreciating” the good things you do, - being overjoyed when you show any sign of reciprocal interest, - being very nice, suuuuper nice to you, - being likely to offer an opportunity to *or* enquire about the opportunity to have another interaction later on, - smiling... a lot of smiling, - for the more forward types, getting into your personal space, complimenting on your appearance... Bonus Track: flirting by message can be detected by observing the following: - very quick replies no matter what time it is - sending more numerous and longer messages than what you reply to them - sending lots of pictures - asking whether you are busy, how you are, etc... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GeekyGamerZack Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 @Jyulz I had a moment of attraction with the guy who served me at the cinema last Thursday, and I could probably check off quite a few of those. When he said to me, "I haven't seen you in a while," I was embarrassed that I didn't recall meeting him before then, so I guess that could count as being forward. Then there was the super niceness, the constant smiling, his positive reaction to serving me again when I redeemed my free popcorn, and he didn't seem to mind my babbling while he served me both times. There was definitely something, even if it was only a one-sided attraction. The weird thing is I'm still thinking about him five days later... 😊 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
