You know, when you meet a new person, if you don't immediately express attraction and if they do not do the same, it's a pretty safe bet that it's not going to work out. When I say express attraction, I don't mean reaching for her boobs, I mean like looking the other person in the eyes, smiling, (seemingly purposeless) touching, attempts at being around the other person as much as possible, that sort of thing. If this isn't happening from both sides in the first 5 minutes of when you meet a person, then she/he's not attracted to you. And even if you finally get him/her into bed, he/she's not going to want you as much as you want them and that hurts like a bitch and it always works out pretty much like shit. So umm... if you have a secret crush, unless it's a very special circumstance, the best advice I have for you is to quit while you're not even in the fucking race.

'Slowly' falling in love is absurd.
