I'm such a slowpoke - literally

[Flippy]

There's been quite a few girls who said they liked me, but I never asked nor said I felt the same way towards them, this made me feel like a slow person, to process this kind of data.

I mean I might get and process some signs, but then another part of my mind says "Whoa, calm down, you might be over reacting, what if she really doesn't like you back? You'd feel awkward, you better wait until more clear signs appear". Therefore, this is a mental issue I'm having a hard time to get over it, and since I think a girl likes me, again, and I'm not getting the signs right, I don't want to lose another possible chance to love.

Help me?

You might not be slow as much as you are shy... You seem shy to me. And you know, if the girl appeals to you... Go for it, if it's someone you usually talk to on a daily basis, do it. The person you are closest to is the best person to date... Depending on your sexuality... But... Yeah, if your mind says no, but you only start feeling something, don't listen to it. It seems to me the feeling is new to you... So. Try it. I'm sure if the girl comes out and says she like you. Wait a day, think about it, and ask her if you want to. (I seriously recommend it)

ya im really bad at this too. i honestly had never talked to a girl about relationships or dating r whether or not they like me or not until recently. i always thought it was childish to outright say i like you but then i relized i was just lieing to myself and im just timid and shy. you have to man up i guess is the big thing. find you confidence and go with it. dont second guess yourself and go for it. becasue in the end you make it a little akward if you screw up but that passes, its not the end of the world bud :)

"Slow" because once I found out that they liked me they are already engaged or in love with someone else. And this is getting annoying...

It's probably a good thing you're taking it slow. They'll make it clear if they like you, if they don't they probably don't like you enough. Meaning they'd rather keep away from being awkward than actually just go for it. Actual love is selfless.
