Never had an experience like this but remembered this gold internet story:
-I'm a scrawny relatively average kid at 16 in school one day.
-This cute girl drops her books and picks them up in the hallway
-I overcome my social anxiety and try to help her up
-I say "heh, this is like one of those high school movies where 2 people meet and fall in love."
-She says "yeah, except in the movies the guy is actually attractive."
