    What is the difference between creepy and a hopeless romantic?

    Money. Sometimes looks. But usually money.

      I think it’s actually chemistry. If you have chemistry with the person it probably won’t be creepy. Now looks, and money, okay a part in chemistry but the two issue isn’t ugly, poor people. It’s people that don’t seem to know it care if someone is in to them.

      I often see people trying to reduce creepy/not creepy down to one variable, but I think it’s at least two very broad categories: mutual interest and context.

      Leaving my partner a surprise gift telling them I’ll always be with them and will never leave is romantic. Doing the same to someone I’ve just met is terrifying.

      If I had a dollar for every woman who called me ugly, women wouldn’t think I was ugly anymore
