The look.
You know, The Actual Look.
That moment of connection, however fleeting it is.
I spent most of a lifetime convinced of my own ugliness and general unlikeability.
Then. Things. Changed.
I started listening to my gut and not my head.
The most important thing is that it is not with intent. Just a 24 second chat with someone. The smallest of exchanges.
And - sometimes - you get The Look.
Which makes it worthwhile.
Or maybe that's just me.
We have to learn to love ourselves before we can love someone else.
Sigh - I'm working on it.
its not just you
I got one yesterday. Hence my post. It made my day.
I caught the attention of a woman quite a few years ago who was with her partner as was I at a checkout.. our eyes just met at the same time and we both just really blushed and looked back down and carried on. it was like more than just an attraction. definitely something much more there than being attractive. we both felt the same I'm sure and could do nothing about it. we had to look down because of our other halves being there. I always wonder if that was like love at first sight. its the only time it happened and id never seen her before or since.
