    I usually get people asking for my number or socials when they’re interested, asking out tends to happen over electronic communication after that.

    My process is basically

    1. Casual conversation- if you don’t hit it off naturally here, let it go.
    2. Reciprocal flirting
    3. Exchange contact info
    4. Develop friendship
    5. Ask out directly
    6. ???
    7. Go back to 1

    I also get told I’m very attractive in various verbage near daily so 🤷‍♀️

    Idk, just be respectful and don’t be pushy if they’re trying to let you down (and pay attention for if they’re trying to do it gently)

      I had insanely low self-esteem in my young adult life and so I found those dating gurus. The one I found wasn’t as toxic as many. But he still had some real shit advise that I took into my attempts of dating. Sometimes it worked, but very often I was seen as an ass (rightfully so) and when it came down to it. Just being me was the winning combo.

      Weird, I know.

      So far, they only asked to see me naked, which is a good thing…because I can’t mentally handle a date rn.
