Men, help me read eye contact.

Mainly interested in this guy who’s always extremely serious when looking at me: he holds eye contact and i’ve caught him looking at me when I can’t see him but whenever we interact he’s dead serious.

Never smiled back to me, he’s always nice though… He doesn’t seem shy but maybe I can’t tell cause he seems very masculine… I don’t understand if he’s just serious, or shy or intentionally doing that. He almost looks angry but I can tell he’s not haha

      I would but I just don’t understand if he’d be interested at all…

      And I’m sucking at life for now, so no maybe I wouldn’t haha

        You don’t need to understand before you ask. That’s why you ask. To find out.

        When I was younger I used to waste a lot of time thinking and wondering about people instead of just making moves. And so I didn’t go out with people, I didn’t get to do a lot of stuff.

        Now I just ask people. Sometimes there’s rejection, but that’s okay. Sometimes there’s success, too.

Personally, I think those people stink, and you probably don’t want to be involved in someone who’s going to be mad about you using your agency anyway.)
