It's this modern day dating culture that's causing it - a young'un will watch online dating coaches and they'll say "don't look needy, don't be nice, etc" when it's actually the wrong approach in my book. Be the best version of yourself and tell them you dig em' - and do it with conviction. Even if they don't reciprocate they WILL 100% respect you. You're never going to get called a creep for doing that, you only appear a creep when you're passive about it.

Better yet, just do your own thing. Your approach to dating, as with other things in life, should be consistent with your own personality and values. That way, when you find the right kind of person for you, the connection will be genuine.

That's actually the code by which I live by. Everything I am and feel needs to run consistent with what I do.

It's not something I overthink. It just happens by osmosis.

This sounded unintentionally "up my own backside" - it's not as it sounds.

That impish, sort-of-mischievous smile on Miss Erin's face as I said hello to her on my way out of work this morning. :love: She gave me that same manner of smile the other night when I had the pleasure of working alongside her and at one point asked her a question that often has to be asked between myself and the liquids area lab tech (in that night's case being her) at some point in the shift. And even more adorable, at that time she also ended her reply with this equally cute series of short nods of her head, her face sort of tilted to one side.

I just .... Around her .... I'm all:

Not a crush per se, but there's a local woman on a dating site I wish I had a chance with, but having messaged her sporadically in the past, there seems to be zero chance she's interested in me. :(

Social media is badly organised. I've missed more DM's than I've read - fact.

Even if you manage your notifications you still miss things. Notifications have become the new Email, no one reads them, most miss them, and 90% aren't worth opening.
