If I like someone, platonically or romantically, I will not talk to them at all. I will stand in their view and just hope they notice me and approach me first. Like this one time in a game I saw someone I liked and instead of being like “hey” yk like a normal human, I just very smoothly drove next to them in my sweet ass car and just started fishing next to them while making sure to “accidentally” show off some of the cool fish I caught. In conclusion, I was just fishing next to them like “please notice me, please think I’m cool” and they left the game.
