Crushing

Greetings,

I've been involved with improv at school and have started to develop a crush on someone in the group. I've been crushing on him since November I think. I think he likes me too but I can't really tell. We did an improv warm up where we free associate with words and when I do improv, I am in improv mode. I am not in flirty mode and when I was in the circle to get words to associate, he gave me the word "cute" and I said "me". I didn't think much of it at the time but when I got home, I thought maybe he was flirting with me and I completely missed it. We did a show maybe a week or two prior to that and during warm ups, I felt like maybe he had a thing for me. I never really paid much attention to him but ever since that day where he threw out the word "cute", I started to develop a crush on him.

I'm not really flirty either at improv either and we don't have much time to talk to each other. I was planning to go out for my birthday recently to do a live escape game since it's free if it's your birthday. I invited him on Saturday and he didn't get back to me until the Tuesday, the day of my birthday. He said he couldn't make it and seemed apologetic as I messaged him on Facebook. I figure if he was interested, he would have said yes. Or if he was interested in going out with me but couldn't make it, would have suggested to go out another time.

So I'm kinda not sure about what to do. I've read some online dating advice and basically says you shouldn't obsess about whether or not a guy likes you. You should just assume he wants you and just be confident and be your normal, fun stuff.

I'm not sure if he's interested. He's a bit younger than me but I'm open to dating someone and to see where it goes. He seems like he's sweet and it would be nice to get to know him better. I'm not really flirty at improv and I don't even know how I could be because I get so focused on improv and I also tend to be more reserved in group situations.

A part of me thinks he's not interested because if he was, wouldn't he have asked me out for coffee or something by now?

Anyways, we'll see how it goes but I don't have much patience when it comes to these sorta things. If he wants me, he should just ask me out. That's the man's job!

I know with my last boyfriend, I had flirt with him a lot before he finally decided to ask me out. I just don't feel I have the same patience but also it's harder to flirt at improv and I don't want to be so obvious about it either.

Hair Experiment

Greetings all,

I recently read that you can use castor oil and peppermint oil on your scalp to improv your hair growth and to thicken it. I've had the problem of thinning hair for the past few years but also a certain area where my bangs are, are thinning out so much that I'm starting to look bald!

My dad has pointed it out to me before but I didn't know what to do so I would just live with it.
Now I researched that you can use castor oil and peppermint oil on your scalp so I started to do that. I've only applied it once and haven't noticed anything.

What I did notice that my hair doesn't feel oily. I wash my hair every 2nd day and last night I just took my shower and rinsed my hair with water because I felt like it wasn't oily and needing to be washed and it actually feels okay today. I tried before the No Poo method where you don't wash your hair and only use baking soda and apple cider vinegar on your hair to remove the oil. I didn't like that method and stopped doing it. So maybe giving your scalp regular oil treatments actually helps with reducing its oil production.

My hair is pretty oil actually and by day 2 looks oily so surprised by the lack of usual oiliness. Anyways, my goal with this oil and peppermint treatment is to thicken my hair and improv growth so it will take some time before I notice anything
