walking past an attractive person

remember middle school?

[ratopretotm]

just change "attractive person" to "literally anyone" and that's me.

*Girl:* "Smiles."

*Me:* "She's the one."

Back then my crush waved at me and I waved back. She was actually waving at someone behind me. We are now almost 8 years together but I still cringe remembering this moment.

Inaccurate. He didn’t instantly imagine their life together

All my ancestors that had wives and children must be so disappointed seeing me fail to walk past a woman

[alephnull]

I can't believe she agreed to pre-marital smiling

When my dad walked past my mom for the first time, they were both working at a department store. He was pushing a cart and because he wasn't looking where he was going, he ended up knocking a stack of mannequins over😂

The first time I ever felt like this was during a subway ride when I was 17. There was this cute girl who I was in the same train with and she was sitting next to me. I then had to transfer to another train and sat in one of the benches while waiting for my train. She was also transferring to the same train as me also sat next to me on the benches. In my head for a few minutes, I thought we were soulmates. But then the train came and we both boarded different carts. I boarded one with less passengers and she boarded another one. I doubt she even noticed me since she was on her phone and had her AirPods on. Damn you life for making me feel like this with random strangers

I remember my grandfather talking about his first crush. He said he would act cool but fall down the stairs if he heard her laugh.

1. This still happens after middle school
2. The girl never smiles

I just look away acting like I ignore them and keep walking and then come home and regret about it the rest of the day like a normal person.

He forgot the anxiety of how long you are allowed to maintain eye contact before you're labelled a weirdo...and how quickly you're allowed to look away without also seeming like a creep

Her: I like your shirt.
Him: I love you too...

[Chessete]

imagine a dude smiling at you and immediately his face turns away in terror

[shizutika]

As an introvert i feel this always, i see a random attractive person and i imagine so much scenarios in my head and i dont even talk to them or they dont see me but i still imagine the scenarios lol

[deegaming]

Walking past an attractive person for me is basically avoiding eye contact with the general direction. When I have to move my eyes across the person to look somewhere else, I make sure to not settle my eyeballs on them

[TheRealGuywithoutaMustache]

Not relatable whatsoever, the attractive person never smiles at you like that.

[lilskipper]

Pro tip: if you walk like that all the time people will never be able to tell when you have a crush on them.

[demonschnauzer]

Something I’ve noticed that I do and I need to STOP doing is audibly sighing out of frustration when I see an attractive person nearby

[FayyyyJiwoong]

This is so relatable and not to forget the feeling of one's head about to explode and dizziness.
