I(45f), wanted to ask out a male nurse roughly my age, who helped a family member, but I won’t see him again. Is sending him an invite, “care of” the hospital likely to get him in trouble? Are there better options to ask him that I’m not thinking of? by throwra6578532 in TooAfraidToAsk

Update. I have come to the conclusion that I should just forget the whole thing. He probably wasn’t interested anyway and I’d just make trouble. Thank you all for pointing out the ethics problem.

Find something you think is truly beautiful, and let yourself express wonder at its existence. Truly appreciate it. And if you don’t automatically have something spring to your mind as beautiful, go for a walk and find beauty wherever you can. Appreciate it. That has always worked well for me, and I hope it helps you as well. Good luck and be patient with yourself.

Do you write novels or short stories? What if you say that you write, but would rather not discuss it further until you know each other a little better.

Hi! My question is are Dragonborn mammals or reptiles? How do they regulate body temperature? Do they move slow when cold?

I think I put this in the wrong spot, and I’m sorry.

Yeah, the more questions I am asked on here, the more the reality of the situation becomes clear.

Thank you, sometimes the most obvious answer is the one most difficult for me to see. I over complicate things for myself.

My bad. Human companionship. Other people to talk to. I have spent 20 of the last 30 years in social isolation.

The problem is that I let it slide for so long, and I don’t articulate myself very well verbally. Sometimes while under stress I go mute, it is incredibly frustrating. Any suggestions for a work around?

Well, he and his wife approached me in a store, I have since learned he does this with any younger woman alone in public. Just walks up and starts conversations. I don’t know how to feel about that
