Why Are People Randomly Talking To Me Now?

[Guest AESU]

So basically, out of nowhere, people started talking more to me (like for example, this guy that I've been seeing for 4 years on my bus and just talked to me this week) and saying that they find me pretty and all. I just dont get how bcs I was literally invisible a few months ago and I haven't even changed

None of us know anything about you nor the people around you, so I don't know how anyone is supposed to even hypothesize about it, let alone give a correct answer...

I don't know that anybody can really accurately answer this for you. Maybe they're bored and decided to get to know you. Maybe it's hormones. Maybe they changed. Maybe it's something as simple as a new haircut making them notice you.

I don't have an answer for you either, but this does remind me of right when I first started identifying as aromantic, lot's of people started either admitting they had had crushes on me, currently do, or even sometimes complete strangers will ask for my SnapChat (from the people I grew up around at least, this is not considered a platonic question anymore) and it confuses me truly. None of these people know I'm aromantic, though.

There would even be people who are quite a bit older than me who would start flirting with me at work (this doesn't happen as much, thank God). And like, sure I know I'm young and whatnot, but I dress so masculinely, and most of the people who flirt with me are men/guys, so I guess they're just into that - and into my stale ass responses to their flirting.
