I was at a bar the other night with some friends. Out of nowhere this beautiful girl approaches me and says, “Hey, I’ve been watching you for a while and I think you’re cute.” I was very flattered, especially since I am anything but a ladies man. We then had a wonderful night. In the morning I somewhat pathetically thanked her for her courage in getting us talking in the first place. I would never have approached her because I’m pretty shy and wouldn’t have dreamed that she would be interested in me. Unfortunately, my friends and I were just on a city break and I had to go back home shortly after, which of course I had already told her the night before. So, unfortunately, nothing long-term came of it. Nevertheless, it was a great experience that did a lot of good for my self-confidence. I still do not consider myself particularly attractive on any scale, but at least I now know that someone might see it differently.
