Same act, different views

Many people find the same thing either sweet or creepy. I have a friend who always walked the girl he liked to class and was outside her classes after class. She thought it was the sweetest thing, and they ended up going out(not just because of that haha). I know another guy, whom walked the girl he liked to class and he was outside her classes after class and she thought it was THE creepiest thing ever. So what I realize is that many people will view the same thing differently. But what I think determines it is how attracted you are to the person. For example, someone attractive can go upto a girl he has never spoken to and say that they should hang out because he wants to get to know her better and she would find him to be so dreamy because he's straightforward. If someone who she found unattractive did that same exact thing, it would then be creepy. So you can't please everyone, you can't constantly modify how you act depending on who you like. If the girl you like listens to slipknot and you don't you can't force yourself to listen to slipknot (shout out to my middle school sister for that). So the meaning behind be yourself is to not modify who you are and be who you feel comfortable in. Because if the person you like doesn't like you, you aren't a good link. So you move on, simple as that. It's not that they don't deserve you (people often say if they don't like you for who you are, they don't deserve you, I oppose. You like[d] them so yeah of course they deserve you).
But I hate the double standard, a girl is going to like Channing Tatum for however he acts unless he's totally a jerk which is unlikely as most people aren't straight up rude, at least to women.
