If only the outside world worked like social media, so when that cutie rides past you on the skateboard while you’re walking down a busy sidewalk and you exchange glances and a sensual smirk, you can simply ‘like’ their pretty face to let them know you’re interested, and then MAYBE, just maybe, something can come of that.
Please, don’t act like that hasn’t happened to you…and then you keep looking back, wondering if they’ll turn around and say hello, or if you’ll ever even see that person again, then you wind up spending a good chunk of your evening fantasizing about something that occurred in only one second of your day..
Amazing isn’t it? How do you go about meeting those people? It’s like, the universe blesses you only every so often with such beauty, but only briefly, and hardly ever within a situation where anything may actually come from such encounters… Damn lucky, aren’t we.
If you’re single like me, and have been for a really long time, like me, then you are well aware of the thoughts that go through your head wondering if you’ll ever meet that ‘perfect someone‘. Or if that ‘perfect someone‘ even truly exists. I don’t know about you, but I can’t settle for just anyone.
I have standards, and a lot of them. (probably hence why i’ve been single for so long) But that’s not necessarily a bad thing….
If you have the amount of luck that I do, you’ll wind up meeting someone who’s perfect in your description of what you’d like your partner to be like, and of course, they are taken. Sad day. But at least you have a damn good idea of what you like!
Or, there’s those weirdos who have had high school crushes on you since kindergarten who won’t stop trying no matter how many hints you give them…. CMON! You’d thing at some point we’d roll the dice right..
I can’t help but to think that someday we will all have our chance.
Patience, patience, patience. But on that real note…. FU#*@BNCKkIg*&9F(*8***!!!!
You feel me?!?!?!
Simple Understandings 
I heard that complimenting such girls can mean sexual harassment. I wish they were more clear about it. Yeah, catcalling is rude but where exactly is the line?
I mean, my ex sent a girl a message, telling her I find her attractive and would like to know her. The girl seemed more alarmed than happy.

In my personal opinion, I don’t think that complimenting women is sexual harassment. I don’t enjoy being catcalled like ‘heeyyy gurlll where you going? can i get your number?’ That annoys me, and that is harassment. I think that there is a proper way to go about introducing yourself, especially to someone you’re attracted to. There’s nothing wrong with stating your interest.. Going up to someone and telling them that you think they are beautiful, and introducing yourself is polite, and respectful. It also shows that you are confident in yourself, and that is very attractive. But cat calling is degrading. There is no respect in that. And there is a difference. It’s all about the approach. But your ex sending a girl a message saying that you think she’s attractive? I’d be alarmed too… that’s not something that one would be elated about. If perhaps you had told the girl that you were interested, without your ex involved, then that might have been a different story.

We’re in agreement that vulgarity from strangers is unpleasant – no disagreement here.
Why would you be alarmed, though?
Another related question: How often people express interest in you?

Yes, vulgarity from strangers as well as personal relation interactions is always unpleasant. Respect should always be held, no matter who.
I would have been alarmed given that the information was relayed through an ex partner rather than the individual whom is interested. But I guess that would depend on how you and your ex partner left off. Every situation is different. The real question was, how was your ex’s approach to the girl you really liked? Did she say that you liked her in spite of you, was that the cause of the breakup? or a weak point perhaps? Or was she implying your interest due to the betterment of you and her’s happiness, for the greater good?
To answer your question, it happens, not very often. I may come off as an intimidating person at times. I will say that I find it very flattering and romantic when I am approached in a respectful, gentle manor. I find that confidence to be a very attractive quality. But don’t get confidence and arrogance confused. There have been a few times I have been approached, in which I appreciate the honesty and the compliments, but nothing has ever come of it.. and there have been numerous times that I have been ‘catcalled’, and that I do not appreciate, in fact, most of the time I am rather insulted.
