"There is a guy on my street, he lives adjacent to my house and Our eyes have met unintentionally on four different occasions.
He seems cool, collected, smart and interesting with his tinted Afro haircut and a slightly fair complexion.
You must wonder why I pay close attention to details, I am not jobless, I promise you. I am a poet and every little thing about him is poetry in my eyes.
it's been a surprising coincidence that when I am out on my balcony or somewhere purchasing something from a store, that happens to be the exact time this cute-looking man would want to stretch, stand outside his compound or walk past me.
I want to talk to him, I really do.
Sometimes, I get all loud and dramatic so he notices me and probably initiates a conversation. But it has not happened and I am getting sick of it."

Making the first move, as it deals with expressing your feelings for someone has always been known to be a 'guy thing', but the status quo has been challenged over the years. A lot of women proceed to make the first move at expressing their feelings.
However, the problem with this is that women find it hard to deal with rejection.
Every man once in his lifetime has experienced being rejected by a woman when they make advances and nothing seems wrong with that.
In fact, a lot of times, rejection for men is motivation to keep chasing and seeking the woman's attention.
Unfortunately, it is a different story for women because they feel like it's a big deal to actually make the first move. Some sort of privilege the man should embrace wholeheartedly whether he likes it or not.
