A new crush is so much fun.
Heres what to do.
Identify if this is appropriate
Is this person acoworker?
Are you in arelationshipwith someone who wouldnt be thrilled to know youre trying to hit on someone else?
If this person really isnt feeling you, dont pretend theyre just misguided, confused, or oblivious.
attempt to look at it objectively or ask a third party, like a friend, for their opinion.
All together now: No means no.
If this person really isnt feeling you, dont pretend theyre just misguided, confused, or oblivious.
Areyoupicking uptheirhints that this isnt something they want to pursue?
Be rational and fair.
Some people just arent going to be into you.
Its better to accept that than dwell on it, even though it can sting.
Flirt a little more.
Put some intention behind your words.
Say you have a crush on a classmate.
I really love when you sit next to me.
Without being creepy, ensure your compliments are more pointed, too.
Dont just tell a friend you like their outfit, for instance.
Say, You look really pretty in that color.Prettyis slightly more romantic thannice.
Remember actions speak louder than words sometimes, too.
There comes a point when subtly has failed and you need answers.
Then, of course, at the same time, take advantage of any inadvertent physical contact.
What fun is that?
Dont overthink this or wonder if youve already been outright enough.
Communication is really important, especially if youre trying to launch a full relationship with someone.
If you end up dating, youll need to be good communicators, right?
So, eventually, you might have to outright tell them.
I hope you feel the same because Im about to ask you out for a drink.
State your intentions clearly.
