I would disagree. I think adults only do that when they are 80% sure how the other person feels. Otherwise, there's too much risk.
Usually, the only time you end up in this position is when the other person is someone you see routinely because of common interests or work. Who wants to deal with the awkwardness of having to see someone who knows you are romantically interested in him, but who has rejected you?
Then, on top of that, if it's a small town, and he starts dating, you'll have to run into him and his girlfriend. And if he's not a gentleman, his girlfriend will know too!
So, I think in cases like Daybreak's, adults are more likely to try anything rather than the direct approach.
(Daybreak, I know BG is a gentleman. I also think he's interested, just don't know how much. Rather than ask him why not grab him, french him, and when you come up for air, claim you have no idea what came over you?)

Plus, on the off chance BG turns out to be a lousy kisser, Daybreak hasn't committed to anything.

I am facing the pins when I bowl, it's the back side he has a view of!!!!!
And lets just say that that is not my best assest, but it's my biggest!!!!!!!!
When I first moved here I weighed 275-295 lbs. I lost 125 lbs 3 years ago and hover at the 150 point. But I am still 40 + years old and the mother of 3 and grandmother of 3 so I am not a bombshell.
I don't know maybe I should throw him for a complete loop and be the biggest tease/flirt he'd ever seen!!! Low cut top , tight jeans and play the blond bombshell!!!! And be all over him!!!

Or I could just smack him along side the head and say "Idiot boy do you just not get it?? Did you ever learn to dance? Then I am waiting for you to lead."
I'd love to see the look on that face!

Wait, I'm 40 and the mother of two. And while I can't claim bombshell status, I actually dreamed last night that someone had entered me in a beauty content, and my handlers thought I had a chance.
I do remember feeling disbelief as I listened to them. I tried to reason with them, but, no, they thought I'd win. Did I mention that my current weight is above 150? I'm on a diet and losing, but still.
Oh, what was my point? Don't cut yourself short.

I don't!!! I am realistic though!!!
The funny thing is that I had 2 guys hit on me when I first moved back. And haven't had a date since I lost the weight, I get alot of lookers, but somehow I put out a "condescending attitude" as my older daughter tried to describe it.
It's like she said you are there and don't have time to mess around with the trival stuff as you are so busy, so guys just don't bother. It's not an attitude that I am inflicting on purpose, don't even know that I have an attitude. So now I am very concious as to how I come off towards people, But I stay true to myself, if you can understand that!
Oh Well, The Lord hasn't found the guy for me yet so I still wait!
