Darling, don't fret. I agree with Nevan in this case - desperate, even if only communicated by the means of body language, is very unattractive (I'd never fall for someone, be it a guy or a girl, whom I thought might just have picked me because I was the only option left). Just relax and let everything come naturally, mmkay? I used to be like you. Then I realized it was just bloody stupid, got over it and found the world to be a much better place afterward. Yes, you'll still fall in love, and yes, you'll be rejected, but see it like this: c'est la vie. You can't have everything you drool over. You've got a whole life in front of you. I'd only start getting desperate if I found myself to be a virgin at my 60th birthday. Which won't happen anyway... *grin*
