shot my shot as a woman
hello everyone. I (20F) just dm’d this guy (20M) that i’ve been following for a while now (since high school) and told him that i thought he was so fine. My problem now is that, if i wake up tomorrow morning and my message is not received well, I would just like some advice and reassurance that what i just said to him was not embarrassing. I won’t lie, i’m an attractive woman and I just always hear how men aren’t experiencing women shooting their shot so i just gave it a try. I don’t normally do this so i’m heavily overthinking. Just hoping it doesn’t backfire and my anxiety doesn’t spike.
tldr; i shot my shot with a guy over instagram dms and i’m wondering if i should be ashamed in the event that he doesn’t receive it well.
update: he ended up just liking the message which i feel neither good or bad about. to be honest, i didn’t ask him out or anything so i guess i didn’t set up the situation well. just happy i did it. also would like to thank everyone for your kind words of advice, very much appreciated and made me feel good about what i did <3
