Lately I seem to be underestimating how attractive people find me. I just got flirted with by a customer at my work. This never ever happens, so it made me happy.
I didn't even make an ass of myself when he did, either! I think I blushed a little at the flirting, but that probably just came off as endearing.
And this evening I'm going out to coffee with a boy who I met a few weeks back and has apparently been drooling over my Facebook pictures ever since. (He told this to me; it made me grin.)
So, for the lovelorn and lonely... well... considering the low opinion of myself I had 3 years ago, my lack of friends, much less an significant other, all that shit. It is possible to change and turn your life around. Keep fighting!
just remember some of us lonely people have had these good feelings at some point and like all feelings they eventually fade. It's normal to want to share those feelings and it's great to hear about you becoming less lonely and more self confident. Good luck and I mean it. Just don't get ahead of yourself and remember love is essentially a powerful drug for your brain so be careful. I hope it all works out for you.
