As in, some good, some bad news for your babbling interlocutor. Two sorta-kinda-i-dunno at-risk Twitterers seem to be in more sanguine moods, which I'm happy about. Two people in real life got mad at me, one in the accustomed you-are-a-bad-person mode, the other in a similarly customary I Am Angry But Not Talking, Very Loudly! manner. Oh, Twitter crush said she was my Twitter crush, which was a highlight.
Back to one at-risk-maybe Twitterer and a self-conscious person's dilemma. I tried to be encouraging/bantering with her on Twitter and IG, which she seemed to appreciate. But. She is alarmingly attractive, and as a result not only not in my league but not even in the same galaxy. Still, kinda maybe worried that she takes banter and back-and-forth as flirting, or even coming on to her? I'm not a total innocent about my own motives, flirting with someone nice and pretty isn't anything I'd turn up my nose at. But I'm really not coming on to her, and her taking all of it that way instead of me trying to be an (awkward) friend would bother me. What to do? Give her space, especially since she's in a decent mood? Talk, but be cool and muted about it? These things aren't obvious to me, and I worry about them.
Well, thanks for listening, people who stumbled in this part of the jungle by accident whom I tied up. You rule!
Sincerely,
Social Scientist/Dork
