So tell me. Have you ever been friendly to a person, in an effort to be polite and friendly, and they read WAY too far into it and think that you like them? Ladies? Gents? Have you been on either end of that spectrum?
Some people are friendly. They like to smile. Maybe they like to talk. More often than not, they like to listen to what people have to say, and they'll even say that it's interesting. Yes, you're special. There's nobody else in the world quite like you. However, before you go off making a fool of yourself by writing romantic prose or poetry for them, make sure that your assumption that they like you is not just a figment of your overactive imagination. "everdearest" and "love" are not words to be taken lightly and thrown all over the place because your hopelessly romantic thoughts and actions got the better of you.
Rather, ask them what, if anything, is going on between the two of you. Relationships start because of mutual feelings. They last because of mutual feelings. No mutual feelings? It probably won't work out unless the two parties are in complete denial. Then again that means that the two parties have mutual feelings. So I'm right. Oh, and talk to them right away. Like a sore left untreated, the delusion you are living will fester and cause more pain.
So please, do as I say and not as I do.

Hahaha...I've been one both sides of that situation. I'm a very friendly person, and sometimes I think that gives guys the wrong idea, or that there is more behind my actions...I've also read too much into the way someone acts toward me, but I don't know which situation has occurred more often...hhmm....well, those were definitely lessons learned!
hahaha... i am very friendly and a lot of people take it the wrong way... one time this guy found me on myspace and asked if i drive the bus (and i replied yes) and he was like "oh coz u smiled at me when i got on!" and i was like in my head, "idiot, i smile at everyone while i check reg cards!"
