The Look

So I was over at Hooking Up Smart and Susan had asked me how things were going with my current crush in the comments section. I had then launched in on the play by play of yesterday. I then received this comment from someone else:

"So in other words, not much actually happened. And the guy might be as clueless as he may have been the day prior, right? Just wondering…"

This was my instant thought in my brain. "Fuck off - quit harshing my mellow!" The guy does have a point though. Except for one little detail - there was something else that happened because the pair of us where sharing "the look." This shared look is the one where you lock eyes and silent communication passes between you. In our case add in the presence of a camper and the fact that we were doing it to initially get her going when she was trying to guess my age and my hint was "Well...I'm older than him." Instant shared look of recognition of something that is a potential hurdle here for us. It was a conspiring look of shared mischief really before I decide to casually mention to the girl "You know he's psychic, right?"

By the end of the whole exchange the girl had a look on her face of "there is something going here." While he and I were laughing to beat the band.

There's something about eye contact.

Also - the way someone reacts when you first walk through the door unexpectedly, when they don't have time to hide what they're thinking because you've caught them off guard. However, when they then proceed to show you all the cool stuff they've been doing...kindda like when Lenoard meets Penny for the first time on The Big Bang Theory and is like "I have a board, look at my board."

I dunno - but that shared look...that kept happening when the two of us had been left alone in the office...

  1. "The look"... what exactly does it look like? How do you recognized it?
