I am entirely in agreement. If it just happens that you click on your own I believe the relationship will be stronger with more potential to last.

Is it possible that what you meant was being 'assertive'? There is a big difference between this and 'chasing'.

I really don't like this idea of 'chasing' as it implies deceit to me; and the making someone like the other. I believe this does not set up a relationship for success. In my opinion this will come to backfire in the future and be the cause for resentment.

Just be yourself and let this happen.
