"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
