--- Quote from: Gnabberwocky on 05 Apr 2022, 11:26 ---For me, it's eye contact. Any time I make eye contact while speaking, I get the bizarre impression that I've just told the other person that what I'm really looking for is not a generic, friendly conversation about the local sports team but a long-term soul mate relationship with nineteen children and an extravagant public wedding. I have rationally explained to myself that this is of course not the case, which helps about as much as you'd expect.

Eye contact is such a weird thing. Years ago, for work, I was in a photo shoot of sorts with a colleague of mine (this was for pictures for a 'come work for us' website). One of the pictures was us standing at a whiteboard, looking at each other while making it seem like we were discussing something. Due to it being a photo shoot and things taking a while, we ended up looking into each other's eyes for several minutes. At the end I felt very uncomfortable, like I should either attack my colleague, or jump his bones (I did neither, in case anyone was wondering. I think I just went to get some coffee or something).
_Islanio:
New comic. I foresee some awkward flashbacks of her recent past. At least in her head.
shanejayell:
Yup. And Claire is just going 'Why didn't I just stay quiet?'

Why its bad when people think you're hitting on them when you dont ? They sooner or later would figure out you dont - right ?

One factor in my daughter's severe anxiety issues, necessitating a change of schools, was that part of her friend group started accusing her of flirting with other kids when she was in fact only trying to be friendly, and subsequently started spreading rumours about her to the point that it destroyed all her friendships there. So yes, it can be harmful.
Farideh:
True, Claire. The only reason to send a genitalia picture is when the recipient specifically asks for one.
@Scarlet Manuka: how is your daughter now? I hope she's feeling better.
