NeuroTypical Posted January 10, 2018 Report Posted January 10, 2018 Hi Jake, you should do two things: First, go talk to her. Smile when you walk over to her. Be friendly, find something to compliment. Offer to buy her lunch or something. If you're over 16 and everyone's parents are ok with it, maybe ask her out. Second, get better at using the shift key. Chicks dig proper capitalization. Let us know how it goes! seashmore, Sunday21, Vort and 1 other 4 Quote
Guest Posted January 10, 2018 Report Posted January 10, 2018 It means your mind wanders a bit. It also means she's aware of you. Oh! And it means you both have a heartbeat. Quote

Guest MormonGator Posted January 10, 2018 Report Posted January 10, 2018 You sound like a young guy who does not have a lot of experience interacting with women. That's okay, all of us were like that at one point. Interacting with the opposite sex is a skill you have to learn, and the only way to do so is by, well, interacting with the opposite sex. You'll make mistakes, you'll seem awkward and weird but you'll get over it. You'll get rejected and you'll move on. None of us here can probably tell you what it means because we weren't there. Quote
anatess2 Posted January 10, 2018 Report Posted January 10, 2018 You couldn't have been staring too deeply into space if you noticed her walk by. What this means is... you were caught trying not to stare at her. We women have this intuitive power of knowing when some guy is attracted to us even if he's desperately trying to hide it. It's how the human species - as weak as they are in the Animal Kingdom - managed to survive all this time. So yeah, my take on it is she knows why you're looking at her. It's just her way of saying either 1 of these things: 1.) be a dude and express yourself so I won't have to. 2.) back off, creep. There is only one way to find out which of the 2 it is - express yourself and see what she says/does. Quote

What this means is... you were caught trying not to stare at her. No, actually, this kind of thing happened to me once. I was just getting out of a building and got lost in thought. I was staring off into space. But I generally pick a fixed point even while walking. I happened to find the face of a girl named "Joy" (her real name) and fixed my eyes on her (not consciously). This was at school and she was in my ward. She looked up and realized I was staring at her and said,"Hi, Carb" (not my real name). I "regained consciousness" and realized I'd been staring at her for 10-12 seconds straight. I shook myself and said,"Oh! Hi, Joy... I was just staring at you, wasn't I?" She felt mildly amused realizing that I was zoning out. I said,"Well, I must have been mesmerized by your beauty." She laughed. Then I paused and looked at her with a bit more attention and said,"You really are quite beautiful, you know that?" (smarmy smile). She did the shy look away thing. "See ya later." I went on about my business. Quote

No criticism intended.) Quote

I doubt the guy was laughing at you. I bet he was just trying to be friendly to you. That's what people do when they see someone they like, they laugh and smile. Quote
mordorbund Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 I recommend hiring a professional auctioneer. No one can read subtle, sometimes meaningless, gestures as well as they can. zil 1 Quote

I identified my gender as androgynous years ago and have no intention of changing my identification. But that doesn't make me any less a woman. Quote
