Has anyone ever experienced this? I've personally never fallen in love, but in the past I have liked someone who I didn't initially think I would develop feelings for.
Yes, a few times.
Funny you posted this, just recently I've been missing one of the people I didn't think I'd fall for. I had always liked his personality but wasn't physically attracted to him until he got in better shape (some may call that shallow but physical attraction is important and you can't help what you're turned off by).
Did you end up dating someone you fell for?
Of course! It's a nice surprise.
Somewhat. She was kind of hideous though so it made it quite hard to really get too into it. She wasn't a really kind person either. I just get a little attached to anyone that talks to me on a daily basis that has a female parts.
No, I never ended up dating someone I started to like. I almost did once, but it didn't work out in the end. I've never had a boyfriend.
Is your anxiety keeping you from pursuing a relationship?
As for moi, once. It was a very unconventional and confusing situation, lol.
Yes, I thought I'd be single forever. I was even planning for my singlehood retirement, i.e. going going to the forest and living with friends. I never thought I'd fall for someone out of the blue. And the guy seems to be my opposite.
There's this guy in two of my classes in college who is confident and extraverted. Basically, he is the most loud person and everyone knows his name. He's also very intelligent. I never though I would have feelings for him because physically he isn't my type. I've only spoken to him a few times, once which was in the beginning of the semester when he asked me if he was in the right class. I reacted nervously and I answered with a "yes" and he just frowned at me. In college you're pretty much on your own so, people rarely approach me. I'm not used to the attention. But I've been noticing lately that he always avoids me whenever I'm around him. Is it because he's scared of my quietness? I spoke to him last week when we were doing our work. There was just a couple of words exchanged. He was also nervous when he was talking to me. He kept on shaking in his seat and avoiding eye contact with me. I don't understand. If he's confident why he is frightened of me? Now, I can't get this guy out of my head. I'm contemplating whether or not I have feelings for him. And to make matters worse, I discovered from a classmate of mine that he has Tourette's. I feel like such an idiot. He probably doesn't even like me. It's just another one of my stupid assumptions. :kickingmyself:
Actually, no.
I guess this means that I know what I want.
I have wasted time trying to find a spark with other kinds of people, though.

I don't know that many people. I doubt that would ever happen.
Interesting. Is it because he's not normal that that's what drew your interest/feelings in him? Some people are attracted to puzzles. Maybe his unorthodox personality/intelligence does that for you. At any rate, does knowing all you now know (or what you've been told) of him alter how you feel for him?
Finding out that he had Tourette's came off as a big shocker to me. I almost felt sorry for the guy because he always has these strange spasms in class such as coughing and such. At first, I thought he was sick and when he continued doing that, it became quite annoying to me until I found out his condition. I don't mind that he's strange. After all he is a huge horror film fan like me. It's just that I don't know if I like him or not. I tend to get infatuated with a single person easily and I can't stop thinking about them. I feel like such an idiot if this guy doesn't like me. I'll feel like I just wasted my time falling in love with someone who isn't interested in me. He's the first guy in a long time who has shown an attraction for me, yet he doesn't want to approach me. :sad:
