What's the most embarrassing thing you've ever done to get a crush's attention?

When I was 21, I was very high and I bought this really nice shirt for my crush at the time. I gave it to him in front of all his friends. I don’t think he wanted it, especially from me, but I don’t think he wanted to be rude so he accepted it in that moment. I wanted to show off how generous I was in front of people. I wanted to win husband approval as well as others. (a year later I found out he doesn’t have it anymore. Better off) Moments later when he was doing his DJ performance, I was trying too hard to be the life of the dancefloor and his best supporter. In reality came off loud, obnoxious, and obsessive. At the end of his set I kept trying to talk to him and his friends. I wanted to be “in” with his circle so badly. Finally one of his friends told me in front of everyone to please get away from them. Ouch. That hurt for months. Then to top it off, months later or a year later I had the audacity to show up at his DJ event to get his attention once again. I was totally being a stalker, but I didn’t want to admit it to myself at the time. He finally told me at the event that he felt I was following him and to please stop - that he isn’t interested in me. I asked him why is it because he’s gay and he said no. Then I asked if we can at least hang as friends and he said no with such emphasis. So I left feeling hurt once again. I don’t think I ever spoke to him again after that. I can’t remember if I tried to speak to him online after that incident or before it. When I did, he usually ignored my messages. I’m surprised he didn’t just go ahead and block me.

Looking back on this, I don’t blame him and his friends for responding to me the way they did. I was clearly pushing boundaries, annoying, not taking the hint, creepy, and over the top. I had a LOT to learn and I’ve come a long way since then. Now that I’ve matured I would not allow myself to get to that point or even put myself in a situation like that.

So he was my neighbour and I once had gone to a cafe and he was also there with his frndz so I went up to him nd said hey ur my neighbour nd he was new in my locality so he said am I? Nd I said ya Nd he kept saying dat line to me nd I said ya Nd my voice while saying ya was like breaking nd I was very nervous it was understandable. Basically I approached my crush by saying hey ur my next door neighbour!
Also I once read that approaching someone with sthng embarrassing stuff makes them think that ur confident Nd don’t care about ‘embarrassment’ stuff nd it makes u standout from d crowd kinda different...

I took an opportunity to get a haircut at a salon when my wife was there getting her hair "did" I felt like we was drifting apart and she couldn't see me but I was a instant hit with the girls up front in the mirror I noticed her and her hairdresser trying to see me I just played it cool and kept my head down my first cousin had went through a divorce at that same time so with him in mind I proceeded to spit game and keep the ladies laughing and as my haircut gets finished up I get the little blondes phone number and leave a generous tip for her then I pay for my wife's haircut and color without her knowing about it. But little did I know she was there to get her haircut for a secret date she had decided to give a guy from work a chance at her heart as I leave the parking lot I left a note with our address on it and the hairdressers number I got with instruction to send it to my cousin. She was in such shock I had went that far out of my way to reach out to her she never made it to the secret date and was so impressed that I got a phone number so easily and just passed it on like nothing... by the way my cousin married the girl and are still together. But what really touched her heart was how all the ladies in that salon wanted a piece of me but I stayed true to my wife and she said what stopped her was she felt blessed to have a husband so in tune with her that' he felt our hearts drift apart

I know how this will sound... But...

Whenever I pursue a crush I get crushed...

... my two girlfriends, came to me, and I was so blind to flirting and signs I had no idea, then, what those were.

Be more clear with your feelings Girls ask Guys people!

[courtney06]

It usually backfires if I pursue too.

[MAC1983]

To be fair, it wasn't the pursuing that was the problem my father's whole family had in communication in general.

It caused a lot of mess, and mess-ups.

Tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth and, even if you strike out, you will be moving forward, I say.

[jennifer_bloom]

I paid for his food when he was broke - I meant to help I’m but he was embarrassed cause he felt the roles had been reversed

[Unit1]

What a sissy he is.

[Hazelstar99]

I went to badminton court everyday to see him. I was bit loud while talking to my friends so that I get his attention. I would say silly stuff in class just to get his attention. Everybody laughed but I wanted to make him laugh. I think he kind of liked me too. But, I was little shy. I can't talk to him one on one but when in group I'm all good.

[mayur1598]

I said you are like my sister...
And I still regret that... 😭

Where can I start? 🤔
I pinged her by sending some assignment and told I sent be mistake.
Scolded her lot of times to show my rudeness
Messaged her like hell to show I love her though she blocked me on everything ( in my defense she gave signals so I felt she loved me too)

[triff]

I proved I could run backwards Unfortunately my footing got confused went straight over on my back practically knocked myself out At Gatwick Airport

[worldscolide]

You will laugh.. I sat behind her in class and did my best to annoy her. When she finally confronted me, i handed her a letter telling her how i fell about her, and apologizing for being annoying. We dated for 2 years i think.

[Puppystarfish23]

Got drunk at the Christmas party and told all his friends i liked him so theyd tell him hoping he'd ask me out as soon as he found out. How naive and stupid i was back then.

[Puppystarfish23]

I used to also laugh really, really loudly at boys i liked jokes in school even if it wasn't funny. So cringey now i look back

[testersite00]

i would trip or fall on purpose sometimes, not even so they could help me up, but to see if they would notice 😂😂

[Butterflyy88]

"accidentally" sent a message that wasn't intended for them, it was blatantly obvious that it wasn't an accident though lol

[Koalamate]

In 2nd grade I was Constantly being behind her moving her ponytail side to side. She got so annoyed but I did it for 2 days in every lesson during lunch and recess (she never told me to stop) then she told a teacher and the teacher yelled at me.

[cherryblossomXD]

In jr high, during passing period. I ran across the school to tel him he had a nice tie lol. We didn't even really talk to each other.

[Dinklex3]

In high school I put my feet on his lap and accidentally hit his balls 😬😬
I felt so bad and wanted to die of embarrassment.

[likelyOK]

I think I’m high school I worked this really over the top outfit not sexy just way to dressy for school

[Anonymous]

My friend said this guy I had a crush on loves these leather pants I wore, so I wore them again next time I knew I would see him but it was the middle of summer and 100 degrees lol

[FictionalCharacter]

Pass them a note 📝 expressing my feelings to them. And walking up to them to talk to them.

[Inbox]

Waited for her after class to ask her out - right outside the women's locker room like a psycho. 😂

[Minahh]

When I was a kid I started crying on a summer camp. My crush noticed and I guess he tried to calm me down but he was 5-6 older than me and was also having a girlfriend at that time so after that he didn't care about me lol.

[Luna1998]

Fall down the steps lol it was unintentional but yes i got the attention 😂

[Liam_80]

Liked all her pictures when she sent me a friend request.

[Primrose21]

[courtney06]
