I've just been thinking about this today, a bit:
Can a relationship form where there is seemingly a lack of chemistry? I was trying to figure out why I wasn't really sure if I liked someone, and I realized, it's a lack of chemistry. I've never had that happen before, when interested in someone. And I think that doesn't work for me. I need somebody I can make laugh, and that can make me laugh; have fun with, and whatever else the times I've had good chemistry entailed. Boo.
On the other hand, it also sucks to have GREAT chemistry with someone and not be able to be interested in them! This is probably worse than wanting to like someone but not being able to (though they may sound synonymous, they are not). It's definitely worse, working so well with someone; getting along smoothly, and complimenting each other, but things just can't happen for whatever reason. Especially cause I'm usually awkward most of the time, and if I'm not...
I've had that happen a few times, rather than my first complaint.
I was also thinking, the other day, I have no clue when I'm flirting. I kind of wonder, when does it turn into flirting? If a man and a woman joke around or smile or whatever, is it automatically flirting? I mean, I don't think so. I don't give this too much thought; I'm not much of an intentional flirt, but then if I don't know when I'm flirting, I could be flirting in situations when I don't want to! Yikes. Interactions are tricky, ha!
Sometimes I let myself get stuck on stuff like this, and then I try to wrap my head around things I'm better off not trying to analyze because there's probably no rule. I always think I can analyze things, but not everything has one strict answer.
So I guess I'll go on flirting unknowingly! And wait to have great chemistry with someone again...gotta love great chemistry.
(I think I killed the word "chemistry" in relation to relationships...oops)
