    Flirt on, if you like her. You’re gonna be awkward. It’s gonna be supacringe. If she digs you, and is worth your time, she’ll like the awkwardness. She’s looking for a fellow human, not a love god.

    But if she gets turned off, then it wasn’t meant to be. You have failed, but you have learned, there’s still a billion-odd potential mates left to meet.

      You didn’t necessarily fail if they aren’t into it. In the words of Jean-Luc Picard “It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not weakness, that is life.” Some people just don’t mesh, and that’s ok. You don’t need to put pressure on yourself to like or be liked.

      You honestly didn’t really failed. You mostly learned that she/he isn’t the one for you. Just move on to someone else that might be a better fit.
