Missed Opportunities
I wanted to ask any reader out there, how they in the past have let their feelings be known to someone with whom they have a romantic interest.
Recently, I’ve noticed that my cautious approach to timing and placement has me continuously telling myself, “Well, this isn’t the right place/moment to say what I feel.”
So, readers, what do you think is appropriate? What do you think is faux pas?
This inquiring mind would like to hear your thoughts. And maybe get to hear some humorous stories.
Oh, and if your story involves a song, so much the better.

Sorry Michael, no love songs here. My story involves sushi & risking it to speak honestly to the other person. That’s all I’ll share. Besides, its not about what someone else did to win their love. Its about taking control of your life & being brave. Its too easy to go with what is comfortable & non threatening. If you are too cautious & not willing to risk yourself & share your interest or feelings for someone- you’ll never know how the other person feels. So, take the chance, say something, it won’t kill you. Cliched- perhaps, but if your current approach is not working for you, try something different. Ask her out to coffee,or something else simple. When you develop the confidence to just be yourself & be comfortable in who you are- it shows, and that’s attractive.

Thanks, I had done as you suggest in recent history, but had not with one particular person.
As I said, I’m hoping to gauge what people are feeling out there. It seems in the end, my own intuitions are right. You’ll get to read about it in the book I’ll be completing within the next year or two.
