I'm going on a date

First of all, I left my number on a table at a diner. I think the wrong server picked it up, judging by the voice, but I didn't tell her that. I think I'm going to go on the date anyways just to see how it goes. But the thing is: I'm extremely nervous. I've been on a date with one other person before. I'm a 27 male. That date went awkwardly, the first one. We went on a second after, that one was still somewhat awkward but not as bad as the first one. Really I think I could do fine on this date. It's the phone calls leading up before the date I'm nervous about. And this isn't like "I'm so nervous, what if she doesn't like me? what if she cancels? etc" it's just general nervousness. In fact I don't want it to happen, I hope she doesn't call me back, because I want to avoid this all! At the same time I'm so grateful for the experience. What I'm saying is: There isn't anything in particular I'm worrying about ...

Friend is trying to set me up with his friend but I'll be gone for 1.5 months

A friend of mine is trying to set me up with his friend. He showed me her photos and I was interested and he showed her my photos and she was interested. I'd love to talk with her but the problem is that I'll be out of the country for vacation for 1.5 months in 2 weeks so if I start the conversation now, I feel we would lose the momentum of the conversation by the time I'm back. My worry is that she'll already be in a relationship by the time I get back as well. What would you do? Submitted March 01, 2023 at 01:13AM A friend of mine is trying to set me up with his friend.

I (M16)have been friends with a girl (F17) for a couple of months, I kinda like her and she’s really nice, but I don’t know if she’s interested or just being friendly

There’s a girl I’ve been talking to for a few months and I would say we’re good friends right now, we always just walk with each other when we’re heading to class and just talk. Today, we got sent to another room because we both have online classes and go to the media center in the morning, but we got sent to another room for something, and she wanted me to sit next to her. We just sat in there and talked about random things for about an hour. She’s really nice, but if she’s just being friendly, I don’t wanna make things weird by assuming she likes me.

/u/GoingFeralOutHere on Can we stop saying allosexual?

I always though of allosexual as being less an antonym of asexual, and more a place holder kind of term for any sexuality that isn't asexual/ace spectrum. Allosexual= "_______sexual"= heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, pansexual, etc etc- a word that can stand in place for any of this type of sexual orientation. Asexual= The term for the asexual orientation, and also usually the term for the umbrella or spectrum of asexual orientations/identities. A word used both like allosexual , but also like one would use terms like heterosexual or bisexual, as a specific orientation label term. Basically, all not-asexual-sexual orientations have an over arching term to describe them that isn't also already a term for any single on of those orientations: allosexual. We don't have an asexual equivalent to the word allosexual other than asexual . So far, we've gone with the term asexual to both describe the orientation asexual, as well as using it as the over archin...

I catch girls looking at me all the time in public and make eye contact with them a lot(like almost everyday). Does this mean I look intriguing or something ?

Happened today at the gym (happens a lot there) and it just left me wondering. Submitted March 01, 2023 at 12:14AM Happened today at the gym (happens a lot there) and it just left me wondering.
