It's happened to all of us, you notice someone and when you have the chance to start a conversation, you turn it down. Even if you happen to see the same person again, your worries get the better of you. It seems like you've seen that charming smile a million times before. It all makes sense; you almost rehearse the lines of what to say in your head as you approach them, and the best you can do is wave your hand awkwardly or flash a disappointed half-smile.
