1
I wonder if this person knows that I like them.
2
I've been acting more distant and mysterious, but yesterday when I coincidentally showed up...
3
at the same restaurant I knew they'd be at, they met my gaze for a full two seconds.
4
And our souls collided in that moment.
5
I think I'll add that to the love story I've been writing about us.
6
Oh, man! I think I'm attracted to this person.
7
Well, given that I've got no idea how to flirt and I hate wasting time, I think I'll just tell them and hope that they reciprocate.
8
Hopefully, they'll understand how big a deal it is...
9
that I'm giving up my free time to be with them.
10
What's a good message?
11
"Hello" Nice.
12
I hope they're having a good day today.
13
I definitely have feelings for this person.
14
But I should wait at least a month to see whether these feelings can be trusted.
15
That guy that I met last night at that party was really cool.
16
I like him.
17
Hey! I like you!
18
Okay. So since the initial crushing period, I've helped this man organize his schedule, find a birthday gift for his mother, and have tactfully pointed out to him all the flaws about his five-year plan.
19
The fact that he hasn't asked me out yet...
20
is making me doubt that we are as well suited as I initially concluded.
21
I've tried to let this person know that I like them by asking them 100 questions...
22
and sending them random thoughts or jokes that pop into my head.
23
But I guess it doesn't help that that's literally the same way I communicate...
24
with everyone else in my life.
25
Nah, I don't like him.
26
I can't like him.
27
Maybe I like him, but it doesn't matter.
28
I'm indifferent to this.
29
I've been subtly communicating to this guy that I like him...
30
through cryptic quotes on my instagram posts and stories.
31
He's been viewing all of my stories, so he's showing interest.
32
Plus, I know he's intuitive, so I'm sure he gets it.
33
Also, he's been doing the same thing to me.
34
Oh! He posted another instagram story.
35
Let's see. It's a photo of a bike and it says: "Let's drive!" He wants to go away with me.
36
I read your message, Brian.
37
Wow! I actually want to spend time with this person.
38
Does this mean... I'm interested in them?
39
Romantically?
40
Am I gonna do anything about it though?
41
Oh! The guy I like is going in for an exam in five minutes.
42
I think I'll send him a good luck message.
43
Time to get his attention.
44
Okay. So...
45
I like this guy.
46
But I'm not gonna tell him. I've been obvious enough.
47
I've playfully teased him, argued extensively with him about politics, I even let him lightly touch my arm the other day without physically recoiling.
48
He'll work it out himself if he's not a complete idiot.
49
I definitely enjoy spending time with him.
50
But this could be just a fleeting attraction.
51
I should wait to see if it lasts.
52
Also, I'm definitely not going to make a move...
53
unless he clearly shows that he's interested.
54
Do I want to lose my independence though?
55
I like this person.
56
But now I have to go through the annoying process...
57
of communicating it to them somehow in a subtle, but still flirtatious way.
58
I could send them an emoji. Emojis are emotive.
59
But which one? There are so many to choose from.
60
And what if the emoji communicates something I don't want it to communicate?
61
I'm not familiar with the nuances of internet chat.
62
This is a headache.
63
Okay. So he's coming over in 30 minutes.
64
I've got the home cooked meal on the stove, the fairy lights set up, soothing reflective music in the background...
65
and pens and papers that we can write affirmations to each other.
66
Hmm... Is it still not obvious enough that this is a date?
67
Maybe I'll blow up the heart-shaped balloons.

Uitspraak om op te letten
De spreker gebruikt 33 samentrekkingen en verkorte vormen, zoals I've, I'm, I'll. Spreek ze kort uit, zoals je ze hoort.
- De klanken “sh” en “zh”: affirmation /æfɝˈmeɪʃn/, flirtatious /flɚˈteɪʃəs/, attraction /əˈtɹækʃn̩/, crush /kɹʌʃ/
- Lange woorden — let op de klemtoon: reciprocate /ɹɪˈsɪpɹəˌkeɪt/, intuitive /ɪnˈtjuːɪtɪv/, extensively /ɪkˈstɛn.sɪv.li/, mysterious /mɪˈstɪɹi.əs/
Klanken die Nederlandstaligen lastig vinden:
- Stemhebbende eindmedeklinker — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ niet verscherpen: collide /kəˈlaɪd/, emotive /ɪˈməʊtɪv/, intuitive /ɪnˈtjuːɪtɪv/, reflective /ɹɪˈflɛktɪv/, tease /tiːz/
- /æ/ — opener dan de Nederlandse “e”: affirmation /æfɝˈmeɪʃn/, attraction /əˈtɹækʃn̩/
- /g/ — een harde plofklank, geen Nederlandse “g”: gaze /ɡeɪz/, organize /ˈɔɹɡənaɪz/

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
