I must say, while tradition is an important part of life at this school and in general... At times I wonder.

Were people in the 1950s quite okay?

And has anybody actually used this advice? I've been told not to heed the advice from teen magazines, but it must be better than any of this.

depends on the crush.
people aren't ever gonna be one size fits all, and part of the problem with these kinda articles is the way they try to pretend like there's some perfect foolproof method that'll work for everyone every time.

but if you're not sure where to start, "hey i like you in a super gay way, wanna go out sometime" usually works for me.
if you like someone in a straight way you're gonna have to ask someone else, that ain't my field of expertise.

So despite the risk of catastrophic failure, the best method is simply the straightforward one... No wonder people have so many problems with romance.

got it in one, kid.

feelings ain't simple, but expressing them don't gotta be complicated.

Daunting at best, but if it works, I suppose our species has lasted this long.
