There's always a special moment in the beginning of the 'getting to know you' process that always feels so genuine and pure. You talking over drinks, walking in the park, or (insert scenario here) and everything is going smoothly until they say the one thing that ruins any hope of further conversation. It's the one thing you never want to hear uttered your way while giving your best game to said person and trying to 'woo' a date.
The dreaded 'Awww...'
That's right. Those four seemingly harmless letters hold so much weight and say exactly how you feel about so many things in how that person feels about you. You have to understand the gravity that an 'awww' holds to really get where I'm coming from. Once an 'awww' is uttered you have no chance to be with this person.
The condescension that an 'awww' entails speaks volumes in how this person views you. You are automatically put in the friend zone, and have no chance for reentry into the sweepstakes of this person's heart after said 'awww'. None. So you're better off just making the best of this moment and planning for your next potential date work.
The trick to figuring out if this particular 'awww' is the one of rejection or if it a genuine one is all in the motion that go with said 'awww'. If there is a smile included with a hair flip and a gentle giggle afterward then that 'awww' is harmless. But if there is a head tilt with a soft 'awww' and a look away motion; you're officially boned and you have now entered 'friend zone'. Just keep in mind the signs of the condescending 'awww' and the power it entails. It might save you some time in trying to figure out if that relationship is worth investing in. Don't say I never told you anything ;)
Until next time folks '....Keep calm and carry on'
