I harass cashiers until they fall in love with me.
This was how I got my ex boyfriend and my currently... more than friends less than lovers chick.

All of my best relationships started that way. I was just going about my life, and some girl decides to chase me down
In the words of my ex, "I saw you and decided I had to get to know you"
Hasn't happened in a while, but I should probably get out more
You lucky sob. The only people chasing me down are handing out flyers about finding Jesus outside the door of the local supermarket.

I was a dumb idiot in college and I started talking to this girl over Facebook, we fell in love immediately but she lived 5 states away at the time and I was super hesitant to do long distance. 3 weeks into meeting each other, she kept begging me to be her boyfriend, and after about another week I caved.
After a month or so, she moved to my state, completely overhauled her life, started at the same college as me...
Now we've been together for 13 years and I can't imagine my life without her. We're excited to get old together.
It happens fellas, just don't be an idiot like me.
Super happy for you that your partner took that chance for both of you. I was lucky enough to have my wife make it obvious I had a shot, and I took it, and we are also enjoying growing old together.
How did she make it obvious
Remarked about my kids with the phrase "good genes." Some of them came from me!

Actually, some girls have approached me after years of having this strategy! Two of them managed to get through my autistic filtering. However, venting time, both cases have followed this pattern: I'm not interested at first and try to keep distance. After some time I get warmed up enough to get interested back and then the other party loses interest. I can still keep in touch as their second therapist and comfort their suicidal thoughts. There was also a platonic internet friendship with one girl when I was a lonely teenager, but she cut contacts and is dead nowadays.
I've never made a first move and still don't feel like start dating. Although, I'm kinda close with one woman, but if I try to touch her, she falls asleep. Also, if she doesn't have enough clothes, she feels too cold and falls asleep. And we're both kinda depressed bottoms so usually nothing happens anyway. Is this what a relationship should feel like? At least she doesn't scream and scratch bloody wounds to her arms. Not sure if I should feel lucky having these experiences. Oops, this was a meme channel.
Edit: for the record, in case my vent tone suggests otherwise, I respect my friends and support them best I can. I just can't help but feel that I might've always lacked a basic nourishing intimacy myself.
I've accepted my life as a hermit in the forest and have found peace with that.
Better hope they don’t turn that forest of yours into a local data center within our lifetimes
You could do worse

I found what works best for me is to flirt with people online, not on a dating app, but here for example. Then if they respond, become friends with them, learn about each other. If there is good chemistry, ask them out. If they accept, you now have a new person in your relationship, if they don't, it's still good because you have a friend :3

That's how I do it too!
Nothing so far, but I guess it's just a matter of time.
Honestly kinda how i met my girlfriend/future wife.
If they've committed to being a future wife, they're a fiancée.

worked for me
RIP
Objectively, the funniest response.
That's so much me that I've been questioning some things.
Oh wow, this is my first time seeing this meme in high def. Well done.
