It should be within reasonable range, like e.g. you won't wake up as a Yedi or Superman tomorrow and world hunger won't be solved just in a few days, etc

Dude, you've just gotta go in and ask em if they want to go for coffe sometime, because either they're into you too or you're the creepy customer who followed them from one dispensary to another to flirt with them. I really hope it's the first, but if it's the latter you've gotta leave that poor retail worker alone and find a new dispensary.

Yeah, I felt bad about it because of comments like this. I didn't know they went to work at a different dispensary that happened to be closer to my house.

They're fine and they always compliment me - I've complimented them once. We also talked recently and they said all our awkward interactions were fine too.

kid, don't listen to them. you do you. at your own speed.

[–] cubedsteaks 2 points 1 year ago

lol thank you! I'd much rather it come up in conversation instead of me awkwardly going in there and spilling my guts by just asking them out.

It's friendly banter, calm down

Why are using plural? Who are "they"? I'm not from US so I might be missing something, sorry...

[–] Steeve@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

"They" is also used as genderless singular, since OP didn't specify their or their crush's gender you'd use "they" instead of "he/she"
