After a few seconds I got nervous and looked away. I could see out of the corner of my eye that he looked away too. I kept walking, expecting him to run up to me, but he didn’t. My rom-com moment was over. Thankfully my friend turned to me and wisely said, “Dude, no. You didn’t mess anything up. You deserve someone whoI’m a hopeless romantic and also someone who’s independent and outspoken, so in short, someone whose very existence is seemingly paradoxical to some people. It took me a long time to realize that it’s OK that I want to be pursued. But I’ve finally come to the conclusion that it is OK to say that out loud. It doesn't make me a less empowered person.
Look, I absolutely applaud anyone of any gender if they love being the pursuer. And in fact it’s ridiculous when guys are intimidated by a woman who pursues them. I’ve asked out a good number of guys, I’ve sent many first messages, indicated interest first. But in my experience, being the pursuer resulted in me having to do everything else in the courtship.
