    This is the beauty of the human condition, so many shared experiences even across all boundaries.

    Also as a guy: Unless he’s an 11/10 nearly every guy is going to be stoked about a girl being attracted to their looks even if they aren’t romantically interested.

    I have been told exactly twice that I looked handsome by women outside my family in my entire long life, and have also been reassured by many people that I know and trust the judgment of, that I was a solid 7/10 in my college days.

    Stupid me had zero clue, interpreted their stares as mockery and just basically kept to myself from frosh to graduation.

    Please don’t make the same mistake I did and just let the decades slip by. Take that risk, ask the guy/girl because you don’t want to be like me pushing 50 with 3 short and unsatisfying relationships to show for it.

    Yes it’s scary, yes it’s risky, but a safe life of no risks will leave you pretty hollow towards the end of it.
