Alright, ladies and gentlemen, it's almost December which means it's the end of the year of "shoot your shot". 2017 was the year that started the whole trend of women and men making the ~bold~ first move as it has now become the new norm.
For those who don't exactly know what "shoot your shot" is, instead of hinting or giving clues that they like someone-they go for it full force. Throughout the world of Twitter, we've seen success stories of women and men who have gone on a whim and have straight up told someone how they feel about them- no likes, no retweets.
In some cases, shooting your shot can lead to other things. Being subtle isn't always produce the results you want. As my friend's biology grade was slipping, she realized she needed some help.
She gets a tutor, who she falls for and asks out on a date. He says yes, asking if it really is necessary because he didn't mind helping her. They go on a date, and everything goes well. Except he didn't realize it was a date. So in that case, being much more to the point would help, a lot.
Whether it's a Twitter DM, your math tutor, or even just someone who's caught your eye, you should make that first move in saying what you want. Just remember to say exactly what you want.
