So I was having a little discussion with someone about this today, and I'd like to get you guys opinion on this. When you're dating or getting to know someone, what is the point of playing it cool? YOu know like, when someone doesn't want to let on that they like the other person or just how much they like the other person. People do this even if their interest has made it known that they like them. They do this no matter what. It's like they act like it's the worst thing in the world to let the person know that they like them, even if the other likes them back. People like to play it so cool. Too cool. Why?

But if you like each other, what's the problem?

Just more game playing waste of my time and I never stuck around for the final buzzer. I dislike childish games when it comes to (in theory) mature adults. You either want to spend time with me or you don't and there is no need for the grade school equivalent of a "I like you do you like me" note.

I'm not good at playing it cool. When I like someone, they know. Or well - back when I liked people, they knew. Now I just like my husband - and he knows I'm not cool.

I've always been a some what of a closed off person, very sparing with my feelings, I'm getting better as I get older.

My goal is to be an open book....

I plan on not playing it cool.

I'll get there someday..

Heh, you would think some make it obvious but even adults don't always get it.
