Gloria25 Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Not sure if anyone recalls MadTV on Fox awhile back, but it had a cartoon skit of two spies who are always one upping each other. Anywho, the creepy online detective thread got me wondering - well, I've wondered this for a while - which is, I wonder if a someone would be creeped out if both people seem to be doing the same thing to each other (i.e. online creeping). I wonder if my recent crush thinks about me a lot, cuz I do the same. We seem to also sneak glances at each other - and I was guilty of doing that today. I think I saw him staring in my direction recently. I also avoid eye contact and get bashful/shy at times. While I enjoyed the few positive interactions we had, I sorta get scared afterwards when they happen...I often get giddy like a little school girl when thinking, looking, and/or just waiving to him. I think the big difference between us is while I am painfully shy towards him and think about him a lot - I have every desire to push through it to get closer to him, while he does not. Some people would be weirded out, but I'm not cuz I guess that's one of several things we appear to have in common. But, I'm still scared that I'd creep him out. So, I just wonder that if two people seem to have a "different" way of doing/seeing things can actually "click"? Sometimes I think that if we collide it'll be like dynamite cuz of the commonalities we appear to share. Like we'd feed off of each other's energy. I mean, sometimes these commonalities in us is what makes me painfully shy towards him - when I really am more forthcoming when it comes to dealing with guys. So, these commonalities, I fear, is something that may also be scary - thus a barrier instead of glue. I mean, knowing someone may be "it" for you is scary, IMO.
Danda Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Well just to clarify: When I play online creeper detective, it's because I'm both paranoid and nosy in a warped way. If there is anything they've left on the internet, I basically can't resist the urge to check it out. I don't even do it with any specific concerns or expectations. It's more like.. if it's there and I can find it, I want to see it. If some extremely internet-savvy person did the same thing to me, I'd probably be kind of freaked out because I change my desires, opinions and so on over the years, in some cases months, so I'd feel a compulsive need to start explaining myself all over the place just in case. This is why I confessed to feeling guilty about it, even though I do it anyway, because deep down I know I am taking advantage of someone else probably just not realizing the trail they may have left behind. What you are describing with this crush of yours just sounds adorable and normal for two shy people feeling each other out from a distance, not creepy at all.
Radu Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Spy vs Spy was awesome. I always wondered how Prohias managed to work at MAD ... considering he couldn't speak English. o.0 He was also the one who got Sergio Aragones introduced to the team.
