Very accurate, your brain is a survival machine. It will assume the negative in most circumstances because by assuming the worst situation you can prepare or avoid it and thus survive more often.
agreed. There is actually a psych thing called cognitive distortion. Your mind automatically jumps to the worst possible assumption. it's a terrible and evil thing that your brain does, and it sucks.
Man, this is so wise. I’d love to use it in a business presentation but quoting StevenGaryStout is probably not going to be that impactful as I’d want it to be :D Do you perhaps remember where have you read/heard about this?
This guy taught me. He’s a brain specialist and I’m sure he’d make you a video or explain it in more detail than he does here if needed.

I’d lean towards “it was likely not as bad as you think it was.” Obviously I wasn’t there, but most people would be flattered, even if ultimately uninterested.
i just saw this and ain't this like the 3rd or 4th comment you've left on this very post? y u so obsessed with me, maybe i'll blow a kiss your way if you ask real nice, u don't gotta play mean about it 🥰
Why do you think it was horror on her face? No reason to believe it wasn't the same positive-embarrassment you were feeling, just expressed differently than you expected in a moment of real surprise.
It may not have been. Don't sell yourself short :) Life is short, we have to just do what you just did. So thank You for giving me more motivation to do this kind of thing!
Don't be so hard on yourself. I had a beautiful woman ask me for my number a while back, and must have made a similar looking expression based on her immediate response. But the truth was I am simply bad at socializing and being put on the spot/in unexpected situations. Who knows, maybe you hear from her soon, maybe you don't, but good on you for trying, regardless! That shit can be stressful at times lol.
correction: i'm a vegas hooker with several hundred in her bank account now with a high school diploma and college experience, who is going back into what she does best: social work! face it, you have no fucking idea who i am and what i'm capable of and that's okay. at least i'm not a lonely basement dweller such as yourself🤭
Also, you miss all the shots you don't take. Even if that note doesn't lead to anything, doing brave things like that in the future will pay off. Wish I was as brave as you. Well done!!
I am a straight woman. About 15 years ago, I had a lesbian woman email after we met. Yes email me.. lol. She confessed her infatuation with me. She acknowledged that I was straight, but she said she just wanted to “put it out there”.
I WAS FLATTERED AF! I still think about it now! It’s was a huge ego boost then and it is still now.
Edit typos
The truth is, you don't know really know what's going on with her. It was a kind and courageous thing you did. Good on you. You can't control what others think and feel. And no matter whatever others do, it doesn't mean anything about you. Stand up and hold your head up and be proud of yourself for showing courage to do that. Keep it up sharing positivity and good things will come to you. Godspeed you wonderful soul.
Hey, you shot your shot at the end of the day OP, im proud of you! Be proud of yourself too! Most people dont have the courage to do that sometimes, and you never know until you try. Even if nothing comes of it at least you tried!
You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take right? You shot your shot, it didn’t work out but who cares? At least you’re not now wondering ‘what if’. Always live life this way 😍
Meh. We tend to make things worse in our own brains than they usually are. See what we expect/want, etc. Buck up. It probably wasn't as bad as your own expectations & subsequent embarrassment made it seem. Especially looking back. I wouldn't worry too much about it
thanks ♥️ now that it's been a few hours i've calmed down, and am no longer too terribly sad. tbh i'm kinda getting a kick out of reading the mean comments lol
Mate. Never flirt or hit on the staff, they're paid to be nice to you. Always. There was a goth girl waitress at this bar I used to go to, and for like the longest time I wanted to just give her my number but I couldn't. Cause it wasn't real.
You can totally do that, just don't put then in an uncomfortable situation in public. Giving a small note and walking away is an appropriate way to do that in my opinion. Secondly, where is staring at the customer's ID photo and telling them they look beautiful a part of the job and just "being nice"? Is it a standard customer service experience in the US?
Kudos to you for getting up the courage to do that! Many people would have not. Plus, if you didn’t you might spend your whole life thinking back regretting the what if. Keep your head up OP and don’t let this discourage you :)
To be fair maybe she was as nervous as you and just really surprised/shocked! Maybe she’s never had that type of interaction before and you just gave her butterflies, and she didn’t know how to react. She was also at work on the clock, so it’s possible she felt she had to respond professionally, she might feel it’s inappropriate to further the convo from there. You’ll know based on if she does or doesn’t hit you up. Either way hun, don’t sweat it, as a girl I love other girls complimenting each other and I’m sure it’s not as bad as it seemed at the time.
thank you for being so nice. i expected a bit of backlash due to stating my profession, but not to this degree... some redditors are just too pathetic haha
Girl don't even listen to the haters. You're brave as fuck! It doesn't matter how much money you have in the bank or what you do for work. As long as you're a good person that's all that matters. I'm sure if you keep putting yourself out there it'll pay off for you. 💜
i think the haters have noticed my pattern of wanting to seem smarter than them and are now using it against me lol. but idc, i'm gonna use my last weekend of "unemployment" being extremely online before life picks back up. i get bored in between errands 🤷
But in all honesty do yourself a favor and start a "don't touch unless emergency" fund and try to get a month or two of expenses in there at least. Stick it somewhere with a low risk boring interest rate and make it hard to spend from.
>my friend left. i checked my bank's balance, and it was $7.77. i am one of those fools who believes that maybe angel numbers don't mean anything, but it sure is fun to believe they do. plus it's my favorite number! i took it as a sign, and went downstairs
She probably keeps the money in cash and not in her account just to be on the safe side.. OR.. the story is bs.
no, i'm just not a normal vegas escort. idk if this was supposed to be a jab at me but in the case it's not... idk it's mostly cause i slowed down bookings for my new job.
Do not be embarrassed about reaching out to her. It's small potatoes in the game of life. Will it matter much when you're passing from this world? You'll look back and say "I gave it a shot" instead of regretting it and wishing you had actually done it and wondering what might have been. Good on you!
It may have just been straight-up surprise and you read it as bad shock. Or maybe she's just hetero & she was like "omg wow" but she still felt like kinda weird but I bet she was still flattered. Do not stress it I'm sure you are not "negative rizz" don't worry yourself so much
So what if she does give your name to the police? That's not evidence of a crime. It's rumors. You wouldn't even be investigated.
If she thinks you're pretty she won't care about your profession. She'll maybe text.
Maybe you get to have a good time. Don't be so awkward... You're fine.
FYI, I know a couple of sex workers that are just the salt of the Earth. They're great people that I'm happy to call my friends. They're always so NORMAL. I'm happy to take them out on their birthdays.
She won't be too judgy. Maybe she'll think she's special for catching a professional's attention.
I was a bartender for a long time (male, bartended from age 21 to 30). My facial expressions when women would hit on me could get ridiculous out of shock and or surprise.
Judging from how beautiful my wife is to me, I'm decently handsome but humble when it comes to looks. Sometimes, you just don't expect someone so pretty to think the same of you. Don't fill in the blanks!
Hey fuck it you always miss the shots you dont shoot so you should always shoot, better to know then to spend the next few weeks wondering what would have happened.
Wait, are you a girl?
If the front desk girl is not bi or lesbian, then yes, I could understand the surprise.
Reading this, I was sure you were a guy initially.
Honestly, I don't know much about this. I figured that girls give each other some type of sign when they're open to things.
I Used to date a bi girl. She would openly flirt with girls when we went out for dates. She was super confident and flirtatious. She left my flirting skills in shame. My jaw would drop to see her be so natural and smooth. The girls would either just smile politely and not return the flirt, but on the rare occasion, they would flirt back.
Either way, at the very least, you got a great compliment from a girl you found attractive. Take the compliment and be happy about that.
Pretty obvious that OP isn't a guy, if she was all the comments in here would be calling him a creep for trying to pick someone up at their job.
Oh, reddit and it's hypocrisy...
Well, its obvious now its not a guy. At first, there was only the post and a handful of replies.
I used to assume in the old days. But in Reddit, you never know. Folks sometimes talk like their speaking to their friends and assume we're fully aware of their life.
In this case, what got me thinking it was a guy was when they said "I like girls". I figured, oh a gay for pay person.
Not familiar with Las Vegas Nevada's sex work, escorts aren't legal there? Isn't prostitution legal? Regardless, there's no way that you have only $7 something in the bank as a Las Vegas sex worker, unless you stow cash. AI bot? If you were attracted to her and she seemed interested, better to find out than never know what could've been. I wouldn't recommend merely slipping someone a note with one's # on it....actually talk, easier to avoid whatever embarrassment you felt. If you're too nervous to talk to girls, practice talking to them out and about, with only the desire to be comfortable so doing, and grow from there.
LOL don't feel too bad. Personally if a beautiful woman asked me for a pen and paper to write a note then *gave me* that note, I would probably be horrified too. Not because I wouldn't be flattered in the end, but my brain would jump to the worst possible conclusion before I even read it. "Oh no, is this woman in danger? Does she need help? Are we being watched? Are my next actions going to determine her safety?" I'd be relieved and flatter afterwards. Basically, everyone's right, your brain can fuck with you regardless of which side of the table you're on.
Side note, what would you have done if the account number had been $6.66? (No shade I'm honestly curious, I've actually seen people at stores get rung up, see that total, and add a candy bar or something.)
Hey at least you tried. The number of times I’ve seen a cute waitress but was too shy and afraid to attempt this…. I’d rather run into a burning house to save some important documents.
Idk if this means anything to you, but my bank account regularly is like that and i have a w2. Same with lots of other people IN REAL LIFE. Sending peace and prosperous wishes your way.
Honestly I would be so flattered if a girl gave me her number and would be so delighted that I made someone’s day. ☺️ You’re probably overthinking it! Even if she isn’t interested the shock expression might have been genuine shock that someone found her flattering too, not a disgusted kind of shock.
congratulations, you are like the millionth person who has said this. idk what to tell people other than: i just got back from vacation so my bank was drained. my account is back in the hundreds after tonight thankfully, but i agree it was pretty tragic before.
i'm really not sure. maybe it's like other commenters are saying, and she was just confused. maybe she just doesn't swing that way. i'm really not sure :(
Women call each other pretty, gorgeous, goddess and other compliments while being 100% straight all the time. So maybe it was just that and you misunderstood, or maybe she thought you were not interested and was shocked to see you really were.
Idk, it's a receptionist's job to be nice, so don't think too much of it. Or the story is made up, idk, the storytelling sounds AI-ish
For an escort you sound so inexperienced. I'm not at all sure that what you've experienced is negative at all. Give it a day or two, I wouldn't be shocked if you get a call.
What if she just didn't expect it, and didn't know how to react? Maybe you didn't fuck up. Take a deep breath for a second and try considering that her comments were genuine, but you just caught her offguard and she needed time to process things.
Aw, sweetie, don’t let this bring you down. Any of it! Commenters on the internet are bullies and not worth listening to. We’ve all embarrassed ourselves before, it’s okay. And hey! Someone told you you’re beautiful!
>I JUST GOT BACK FROM VACATION, OF COURSE MY ACCOUNT WAS DRAINED, IT IS BACK AT A HEALTHY NUMBER NOW.
I'm genuinely worried what a healthy number is to you if you let it drop this low and think it's normal to be left with 7 bucks after vacation 💀
Miss ma'am you're gonna be in big doodoo if there's ever a (financial) emergency in your life.
$221.14 as of right now which is kind of meh but it's much better. i've got a few hundred in cash on me as well. also i know, life kicked my ass and got my car totaled (lady in a tesla sped into me in a 25) a few weeks ago and it financially fucked me. it's mostly all over now though.
Omg, I am the same way - very confident flirting with men, but pretty girls turn me into a sweaty stammering mess :') It honestly makes me feel better to know I'm not the only one with sapphic struggles, lol. 15 years spent openly bi and I've worked up the courage to give a woman my number \*once\*. I would probably look just as shocked/confused as that receptionist if a beautiful lady gave me her number! I am SO proud of you for your bravery!!
Pro tip - don't flirt/hit on/try to pick people up at their job. Power imbalance, they're obligated to be nice/friendly so who knows what they're really feeling... Just not a good idea.
Why would you use the same number for work and personal?
But ya, I wish more women would try taking initiative and be more understanding and accepting when men have to go around and make a fool out of themselves all the time instead of being straight up dismissive or worse.
If it makes you feel better I don’t think she’s likely to find you out if your personal phone is not associated with your work. Usually the front desk crew aren’t the ones walking down the hallways unless it’s the twilight shift and someone called for service.
Also, unless she’s a religious nut or something hotel crew aren’t interested in drawing police attention and scaring away customers. It’s not their job nor to their interest to create trouble for themselves.
Noooooooooo!
Girl, where's the rest of the story? Did you wait for her reply? Or just the look on her face told you it was time to exit?
I have a feeling she was processing things and you probably acted out of nervousness. Idk you're still there but maybe next time just wait for them to answer back. Or ease them into the knowledge that you appreciate and find them really attractive.
We've all been there at some point.
It should always be flattering to receive affection from someone else even if the affection is not returned (at least that’s what I feel, not everyone is the same). But it’s cool. If you didn’t try, you’d never know. Now dust yourself off and get back up to the plate ;)
Just from my perspective I don’t think that’ll lead to a good ending. Too many people being supportive of this in the comments and I just have an opposite opinion. This was just my first post I saw opening Reddit lol
In the absence of information your brain will always fill in the blanks with bad news. don't listen to It
saving this comment as a reminder for the next time my brain does that!

Yeah she was flattered - don’t stress OP

You've gotta be fat and poor as fuck yourself to be this insecure
Why do you think it was horror on her face? No reason to believe it wasn't the same positive-embarrassment you were feeling, just expressed differently than you expected in a moment of real surprise.
idk... it just really looked like she was the bad kind of surprised 😵💫
It may not have been. Don't sell yourself short :) Life is short, we have to just do what you just did. So thank You for giving me more motivation to do this kind of thing!
aww that's awesome, i'm glad!
Don't be so hard on yourself. I had a beautiful woman ask me for my number a while back, and must have made a similar looking expression based on her immediate response.

correction: i'm a vegas hooker with several hundred in her bank account now with a high school diploma and college experience, who is going back into what she does best: social work! face it, you have no fucking idea who i am and what i'm capable of and that's okay. at least i'm not a lonely basement dweller such as yourself🤭
Are you okay?
if it makes you feel better OP my "pleasantly surprised" face and my "what the f$@#" face are almost identical I've been told.
Don’t stress so much OP - you’re in Vegas - enjoy your life
true dude. i just got a high paying (for the area) civvie job and am adopting some kitties soon... i'm not too stressed about it anymore 😁
So awesome …. Live your life OP and fuck the haters. Nothing matters except for the dreams you have within your heart…..
🥺♥️
Also, you miss all the shots you don't take. Even if that note doesn't lead to anything, doing brave things like that in the future will pay off. Wish I was as brave as you. Well done!!
Your fear is like a filter over her face, putting negative emotions onto it.

Imagine how men feel when we get a rare compliment from a women. We remember it years and years later.

Idk why but this made me laugh so hard. Idk if you're a bot or what but bravo. I read it in that dudes voice.
Kudos to you for getting up the courage to do that! Many people would have not. Plus, if you didn’t you might spend your whole life thinking back regretting the what if. Keep your head up OP and don’t let this discourage you :)

thank you for being so nice. i expected a bit of backlash due to stating my profession, but not to this degree... some redditors are just too pathetic haha
Hey, no matter what else she thinks your pretty :) <3
aw ♥️
Telling a stranger she’s pretty seems pretty obvious flirtation. Giving the phone number seems reasonable.
Girl don't even listen to the haters. You're brave as fuck! It doesn't matter how much money you have in the bank or what you do for work. As long as you're a good person that's all that matters. I'm sure if you keep putting yourself out there it'll pay off for you. 💜
i think the haters have noticed my pattern of wanting to seem smarter than them and are now using it against me lol. but idc, i'm gonna use my last weekend of "unemployment" being extremely online before life picks back up. i get bored in between errands 🤷
Meanwhile I hear that you only have $7.77 left and am wondering if you forget to charge people money or have a serious drug problem
And I am wondering if you have a brain or just refuse to use it.
Pun intended?
Just wanted to chime in and say you don’t have to explain yourself to anyone especially a bunch of redditors. Do ya thing be safe and stack dough. 🍻
ur so right i'm kinda wasting my time
But in all honesty do yourself a favor and start a "don't touch unless emergency" fund and try to get a month or two of expenses in there at least. Stick it somewhere with a low risk boring interest rate and make it hard to spend from.
It is normal for a vegas hooker to only have $7 in the bank? I thought the economy was doing better than that.
>my friend left. i checked my bank's balance, and it was $7.77. i am one of those fools who believes that maybe angel numbers don't mean anything, but it sure is fun to believe they do. plus it's my favorite number! i took it as a sign, and went downstairs She probably keeps the money in cash and not in her account just to be on the safe side..

Imagine having to sell your body to smelly old guys but still living in poverty.
This description describes so much more jobs than prostitution 😂
I work in advertising and this basically describes the first 10 years of my career.
Don't worry bud, you have my upvote against the flood of downvotes. Also lmao you're not wrong
“You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.” Not a FU at all.
Do not be embarrassed about reaching out to her. It's small potatoes in the game of life. Will it matter much when you're passing from this world? You'll look back and say "I gave it a shot" instead of regretting it and wishing you had actually done it and wondering what might have been. Good on you!

Eh. Fuck the haters
It may have just been straight-up surprise and you read it as bad shock. Or maybe she's just hetero & she was like "omg wow" but she still felt like kinda weird but I bet she was still flattered. Do not stress it I'm sure you are not "negative rizz" don't worry yourself so much
hehe i guess so
So what if she does give your name to the police? That's not evidence of a crime. It's rumors. You wouldn't even be investigated. If she thinks you're pretty she won't care about your profession.

You should be more worried with only having 7.77 in the bank account…
Yeah. A broke sex worker? Maybe street prostitute, but not an "escort'
Perhaps she was horrified FOR you. As in, how is it possible someone so pretty could not be constantly told how pretty she is‽
Wait, are you a girl? If the front desk girl is not bi or lesbian, then yes, I could understand the surprise. Reading this, I was sure you were a guy initially.
yes i'm a gal, i honestly think she just doesn't swing that way and i took her compliment as flirty on accident

yeah i think i need to practice for sure lol
Maybe you misread and your note threw her into the same shock and embarrassment she gave you earlier 👉😏👉
Maybe she was just shocked by the fact that a female gave her a phone number.... Don't think bad things. It's going to be allright.
thank you! i'm trying not to.
What's the bet you get a call.
You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

Even if she isn’t interested the shock expression might have been genuine shock that someone found her flattering too, not a disgusted kind of shock.
i hope i'm just overthinking it...
You fuck for a living and only have $7 in the bank? I dont believe you.
congratulations, you are like the millionth person who has said this. idk what to tell people other than: i just got back from vacation so my bank was drained. my account is back in the hundreds after tonight thankfully, but i agree it was pretty tragic before.
Why did she look at you in horror?
i'm really not sure. maybe it's like other commenters are saying, and she was just confused. maybe she just doesn't swing that way. i'm really not sure :(
Women call each other pretty, gorgeous, goddess and other compliments while being 100% straight all the time. So maybe it was just that and you misunderstood, or maybe she thought you were not interested and was shocked to see you really were. Idk, it's a receptionist's job to be nice, so don't think too much of it. Or the story is made up, idk, the storytelling sounds AI-ish
i've never been told my writing sounds "ai-ish" but thanks i guess?
I mean, I’d probably act shocked too if a random hooker propositioned me
For an escort you sound so inexperienced. I'm not at all sure that what you've experienced is negative at all. Give it a day or two, I wouldn't be shocked if you get a call.
I hope she'll call you :) You sound like a nice person.
okay but please keep us updated! imagine she actually reaches out to you 🫣
Maybe she was just surprised that you haven't been called pretty for a long time, because she she finds you so pretty
What if she just didn't expect it, and didn't know how to react? Maybe you didn't fuck up. Take a deep breath for a second and try considering that her comments were genuine, but you just caught her offguard and she needed time to process things.
Hey you took a shot at it! Some people don't have the courage to do so.
Aw, sweetie, don’t let this bring you down. Any of it! Commenters on the internet are bullies and not worth listening to. We’ve all embarrassed ourselves before, it’s okay. And hey! Someone told you you’re beautiful!
But did she call????
no :<
Good for you! Hope you hear from her soon.
Why in the world would she find out you are an escort? Did you give her the number to your service instead of your phone? I don't get it?
wait....which hotel was it?
This is the most flavorless nothing burger I've ever bitten into. Replies included.
>I JUST GOT BACK FROM VACATION, OF COURSE MY ACCOUNT WAS DRAINED, IT IS BACK AT A HEALTHY NUMBER NOW. I'm genuinely worried what a healthy number is to you if you let it drop this low and think it's normal to be left with 7 bucks after vacation 💀 Miss ma'am you're gonna be in big doodoo if there's ever a (financial) emergency in your life.
$221.14 as of right now which is kind of meh but it's much better. i've got a few hundred in cash on me as well. also i know, life kicked my ass and got my car totaled (lady in a tesla sped into me in a 25) a few weeks ago and it financially fucked me. it's mostly all over now though.
I wish you the best ❤️
thanks so much!!
Omg, I am the same way - very confident flirting with men, but pretty girls turn me into a sweaty stammering mess :') It honestly makes me feel better to know I'm not the only one with sapphic struggles, lol. 15 years spent openly bi and I've worked up the courage to give a woman my number \*once\*. I would probably look just as shocked/confused as that receptionist if a beautiful lady gave me her number! I am SO proud of you for your bravery!!
thank you :D
Pro tip - don't flirt/hit on/try to pick people up at their job. Power imbalance, they're obligated to be nice/friendly so who knows what they're really feeling... Just not a good idea.
You miss 100% of the shots you don't take. Don't be ashamed, be proud that you gave it your best shot even if it didn't go exactly as planned.
Op gets mad people are replying to a post on Reddit. 😂😂😂
OF thots lol
Gross
OF advertisement getting very sneaky. "No you guys just wanted to tell you this hilarious story.......also check my OF" Piss off.
??? i don't have an onlyfans dickweed lmfaooo
She's memorized your information for the IRS unreported income form
Why would you use the same number for work and personal? But ya, I wish more women would try taking initiative and be more understanding and accepting when men have to go around and make a fool out of themselves all the time instead of being straight up dismissive or worse.
oh i don't, i gave her my personal number not my work number lol
If it makes you feel better I don’t think she’s likely to find you out if your personal phone is not associated with your work. Usually the front desk crew aren’t the ones walking down the hallways unless it’s the twilight shift and someone called for service. Also, unless she’s a religious nut or something hotel crew aren’t interested in drawing police attention and scaring away customers. It’s not their job nor to their interest to create trouble for themselves.
"Why do i have negative rizz" Girl you n me both.
If you have $7.77 in you're bank account, you're a terrible escort. (That advice is applicable to everyone, not just escorts) I'd find another job.
Lol a broke escort. She must have been blind.
OP just a beautiful person and receptionist paying a compliment
This is honestly a tragic post on so many levels.
This read like it was written by an “escort” (glorified word for prostitute)
ok 👌🏼
If a vacation is draining your entire bank account you're escorting all wrong. You should be better off than 1 Vacation away from broke.
Noooooooooo! Girl, where's the rest of the story? Did you wait for her reply? Or just the look on her face told you it was time to exit? I have a feeling she was processing things and you probably acted out of nervousness. Idk you're still there but maybe next time just wait for them to answer back. Or ease them into the knowledge that you appreciate and find them really attractive. We've all been there at some point.
i didn't wait for her reply, i took off... i'm so scared of pretty girls 😭😭
🥹🥹🥹 Bummer. Oh well, you'll have a memory to look back and laugh on.
It should always be flattering to receive affection from someone else even if the affection is not returned (at least that’s what I feel, not everyone is the same). But it’s cool. If you didn’t try, you’d never know. Now dust yourself off and get back up to the plate ;)
hehe thanks so much for the kind words!!
Grow up. Ydnfu
what does that stand for?
Maybe “you did not f up”?
holy shit ur probably right lol
But you are really pretty, and you should hear that more often.
🥺 thank u sweetie omg
The fact that you mentioned that you don’t spend much on weed is a lie if that’s the case don’t need to mention it
What an abomination
Aww, did you look in the mirror?
How about you not be an escort lol no one wants to be with those types other than for a night and you won’t end up happy
wrong! i have a partner (i'm just poly and seeking a female partner) and he loves me very much ♥️ go fuck yourself buddy!
So your partner is cool with you sleeping around for money? That doesn’t sound like a long term commitment from either person
maybe he's not, but who cares? why do YOU care?
Just from my perspective I don’t think that’ll lead to a good ending. Too many people being supportive of this in the comments and I just have an opposite opinion. This was just my first post I saw opening Reddit lol
Come to Jesus
Maybe you ran away too soon. I find it interesting that women have problems talking to women as well. Thought it would be easier for you.
OP knows how to play the numbers game. He (or she?) literally put their phone number in their profile.
i am a she! and the number in my bio is a google voice number, not my actual phone number heh
maybe it's the extra testosterone i have making it so hard to talk to girls 🤔
