like that you being nice or kind ...is often mistaken for romantic interest ...

I notice this a lot on the board especially with the men ...in an age of tinder, fucking, and no emotional connection ...I can see how kindness, emotional connection and consideration can be confused with a romantic interest

this has also happened to me a few times as well... being too "nice" to someone has translated into me wanting something else...

rarely. only if they are obviously used to lots of women chatting them up and are still at that stage in life/ mentally where they think every woman who talks to them is chatting them up.

i'm not cancer or cancer dominant, but this happens to me a lot in real life in the past. so I simmer it down and am not that friendly. Only if i'm with my husband then i'm smiles of course, to be polite. it really sucks, because you are just being nice. and men/ boys fall in love with a nice person. so I figured if i'm mean, it'd help. lol

Should be the opening to a book.

"In an age of tinder, fucking, and no emotional connection, a hero arises from the dating wasteland....his (or her) bearing, aura, and poise causes all heads to turn and the world is breathless as he (or she) opens their mouth to speak....he (or she) looks around at the throng, a steely gaze, a confident gaze, a gaze that holds the promise of redemption...and there is a gasp as the words echo in the silence as he (or she) walks off into the distance---"Fuck this shit""

Yeah that's where I am being not so friendly, still doesn't help. They fall in love anyway. Geez

Reading this just made me think of the time tbat my cancer friend thought that I was falling in love with him. Things couldnt be furtherer than the truth! Not my fault if he took my friendly nature to mean something else!
