How do you know if a woman is looking at you and not someone behind you or next to you?

Right now, I could be at a wedding reception, the hottest single woman there could be looking at me and I wouldn’t think anything of it.

Easier said than done. For a lot of us. It's a miracle I ever got a date!

Of course ... but that does not make it impossible; but I guess some people may be so adverse to making any effort of their own that they expect everyone else to approach them instead.

No...not impossible for some maybe. It's not that I was adverse to making any effort, quite the opposite. But when your body literally becomes catatonic and you're unable to speak, that makes it difficult, no? Fortunately for me I have been approached over the years, which was still hard but easier than being the approacher.

That seems more like a phobia; but one that can still be overcome.

So, how long have you been married?

Perhaps, if I was actually aware I had a problem at that time. I didn't get my diagnosis until very recently.

My wife and I have been together for 21 years at this point. And I had a previous marriage of about 4 years.

So the passive act worked for you. Congratulations.

It's not an act for me either. I've literally never made the first move. But I have had a surprisingly full romantic/sexual life.

I use to make them come to me as well. I have asked women at receptions for dances. One that was old enough for me was in a relationship. I got to peck her hand as a thanks. She gave me permission.
