Do not mistake confessing your feelings with flirting. Those are two entirely different things.
When i first saw this, i thought it was about coming out to someone as trans, but its not a trans specific community so i assume its referring to something else
I want all people to know that basically 0 people find the sullen rejected demeanor attractive. The ones that do are usually manipulators.
Ask them out. If it costs you everything it was never going to be something.

I wouldn’t say never. Attraction potential can change drastically over time. Maybe it would cost you everything today, but not after a year of self-improvement: diet, exercise, hobbies, hygiene, etc.
Hell, even time by itself might be enough to shift the other person’s values. Maybe today they just want to party and have casual sex with hot strangers, but in a year or two they might want a serious relationship with someone they trust.
All big “maybes”, but to ignore them is a bit reductionist. People are complicated.
I would just like to point out this is my biggest gripe with the movie.
Josh Brolin didn’t sacrifice the thing he most cared about. What he most cared about was his plan to kill half the universe. That’s what he should have sacrificed to get the wishstone. Instead, he iced a perfectly innocent person that wasn’t even hard for him to do.
If you would sacrifice your most cared about thing for the stone, the soul stone would be more cared about (and the thing you are planning to do with it), meaning no one can get the stone
Not if you’re

I think it was just something they loved rather than something they loved the most.
I don’t think Natasha and Clint’s one would work as well because Clint would have had to lose his wife or children or something.
That’s always been my thought. “you must sacrifice something you love” and the whole reason Gamorrah was laughing is because she believed Thanos had no love of anything or anyone.
And of course something like that can’t be exactly quantified in scientific terms, so the stone would have to go off whatever the person considers love. So I do believe that Thanos loved her and nebula, but I also don’t think his version of what he considers love to be comparable to most other living beings.
In one story I thought up, this is a plot point.
An ancient race that never lies writes a legend: “This relic will allow one to undo any mistake in history. All it requires is a true sacrifice.”
They define true sacrifice as giving up that which you value most. They define what you value as something you’d protect above all else. This race never had any time travel research; they just presented this concept of “true sacrifice” as a joke and a thought exercise.
aha, that makes sense !
Better than living a lie just to hang around…
The loss is the imagined future that you would have continued to grow in your mind into something that becomes regret for a non-existent thing. Find out if there’s anything there. If there is, great. If not, then you know where you stand and can use your energy for things that have potential.
A bonus for just saying something without expectations is that you’ll be more yourself, so anything that does happen is based on a realistic setting and not some planned outcome that distracts you.
The only thing worse than the mind games some people play with others is the mind games you play with yourself. But you can stop doing the latter.
She felt the same before you knew she felt that way, the only thing that changed was your awareness. In general seek that which seeks you, no one needs to convince someone else to love them. If what you desire to seek you does not you only have two options, change what you desire or change yourself to attract what you desire.
With time it will get better. Probs to you for trying.
