I don’t think I need to have spend 5 hours in private conversation with a girl to be interested in her to the extend that I want to ask her for a date.
I don’t think that “know well enough that you could have a crush on them” is a meaningful category.
However I think this part is less important than finding the prior, because most people have at least a general idea about what certain signals mean from personal experience
Physical intimacy is a signal that a person likes me, but without knowing the baseline for the other person it means little.
Have you got any advise on how to rephrase tis definition? The Idea was that everyone knows best for himself how long it takes do develope a crush on someone. Hence the category “know well enough that you could have a crush on them” . Hovever i was not sure that everyone would be able to define this for himself therefori addet the backup category. If you dont need 5 hours to find out if you would want to go on a date with a girl, than you know what “know well enough that you could have a crush on them” means for you and you should go by your personal definition.
I don’t think that “developing a crush” is a good way to think about the issue.
If a girl that I consider attractive both on a physical and mental level asks me for a date and I’m not in a relationship I go with her on a date.
I don’t need to develop feelings for her before that point that make her special.
To me having a crush suggests thinking about the other person when one isn’t in their presence and wishing to be in their presence. Actively desiring to have a relationship.
If I know that one of my female friends who I consider attractive both on the physical and mental level is in a stable monogamous relationship I’m less likely in a state where I actively desire a relationship with her. If however her circumstances change and she leaves her old relationship and wants to go on a date with me, why should I reject that?
