Wtf was i thinking???? How do i stop being a creep? A close friend of mine said i just got too excited

>how do I make it not happen again
tone it down. use that extroversion to set up the date and DON'T text 1000 times or put yourself in their path on purpose. save the enthusiasm for when you meet for the date dummy

Wow they just let anyone in there now, huh? I mean your average DLI student has always been a bit autistic but yeesh. Army?
