Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I feel like i see a joke or comic like this every two months.
Here's the thing, if you are unsure about the messages you're receiving and decided not to act, you did the correct thing. You were wise not to interpret uncertain signals as signs of romantic interest, no matter how clear they were in hindsight. If a woman is interested in you, the onus is on her to make that unambiguous and take the next step, because she's not the one who's advances could be mistaken as dangerous.
You did the right thing.
No, you could act on in appropriately. Ask on a date, go in for a kiss etc whatever the situation calls for. You can't force yourself on them or keep trying if you get turned down. But expressing your own interest is the only way either of you will know what's going on.
Eh, maybe if it's a stranger, but if I'm ever going to see this person again, I'm not going to take that chance unless she's waving me in with those airport lightsabers.
