I usually assume attraction but there are times, like last night, where I meet a girl I find attractive, have a decent talk with her and all that, but then it doesn't lead to anything, which is fine. But the day after, I realize all I did was look in her direction constantly when mot talking to her and then cringe to myself at how that must have looked haha. I like to think it's not a creepy stare since she was nice regardless but I'm not sure.

Anyway, any advice to how to avoid all this would be great. I guess it's the staring part of all that that makes me feel like it was more awkward than it probably was.
