If there is chemistry, if he likes you, odds are he will like you no matter what. There was a girl I recently saw and liked and she barely said much, english was her second language, she did a little gasp sometimes after speaking as though maybe she had asthma, I am not sure but when I saw it I wanted to hug her and be with her even more. My feelings for her where such that I realized it didn't matter what she said or did, it didn't matter what we talked about, just knowing she was there was enough. Just being close to her, in the same room as her, there's no place I'd rather be. There's no profound words that will change someone's life typically, lol, people just chat and ask questions for the sake of time but the real attraction tends to have nothing to do with what we say, just that we are there, the vibes alone. I could care less what she said, I was just happy to be with her. Didn't want the night to end. It was nice to smile with random things we joked about and the random smile once we loosened up was what really mattered. My little niece came down and spent time with us and when she was upset someone wanted her to leave us alone we said "no it's fine, we love having you down here" because we didn't care about what we were talking about, it was just nice to be there, laid back and chill amongst each other and joking with my little niece. I honestly realized or remembered that it just doesn't matter what we say or do, if we like someone we like them. People are usually genuinely good and not out to get you, everyone worries about themselves, it's a big equalizer, but if the chemistry is there, the eye seems to just know, as fair or unfair as it is, then not much else matters. Any struggle a man sees will make him feel for that person even more and want to be there for them even more. If not, it's not from the stutter, it's just the chemistry wasn't there. It is what it is. If someone was shy and a little to themselves, but you liked him the moment you saw him, would it detract and change your feelings?
