Guy Awkwardly Compliments Girl on Stairs, Now They're Dating

A girl posts: 'I'm pretty good at reading the room — so why does everyone say I'm terrible at noticing when someone likes me? lol. Anyway, my boyfriend's friend apparently had a crush on me. My boyfriend told me his friend's dream was just to say hi to me once, and that since I'm not dating HIS friend, it wouldn't hurt to just be friendly. Honestly I didn't like the guy, so I thought saying hi would be weird, and I kept ignoring him — walking past him, not making eye contact, nothing.

Then one day I was heading to the health room during class and ran into him coming DOWN the stairs as I was going up. We both froze. I tried to step aside, he stepped the same way, I went right, he blocked me — full staircase standoff lmaooo. He's shorter than me so all I could see was the top of his head... Then out of nowhere he goes 'Can't you just say hi to me?' So I looked up at him like '...huh?' and he suddenly got flustered and mumbled, 'You're... you're really pretty.' I was like okay this is a prank right??? NOT a prank.

I panicked too. His face went bright red and he just bolted down the stairs skipping steps. I stood there frozen for like 2 minutes before walking in. He's my boyfriend now."
