From Hawaii with Love / I'm Afraid of Showing Interest

"No - No. What the fuck is up with the texts?" - Karen Lee Poter On December 24th, we got an email: "I'm very attractive in certain social groups, but I'm afraid of showing interest. I'm afraid of coming off as a creeper. On the bright side, I'm seen as very safe ;}" For this Q&A, we sit down with Karen Lee Poter and use everything in our toolbox from evolutionary psychology to Kevin's love life, to solve this guy's crisis. A throwback to our earlier seasons, we strip away the bells and whistles, and cover: - How to effectively show romantic interest in someone, without coming off as the weirdest person on the planet - How to build confidence and - if you can swing it - meta-confidence - How to ask someone out, if you're terrified of doing so - The crucial difference between narrowcasting and broadcasting The Facts Moonwalk is produced and hosted by Mohnish Soundararajan .
