  If you look at this situation from an older mindset, i am above thirty, you would definitely tell them in a very direct and short conversation. Maybe even be playful about making them feel guilty, that’s what most people with more life experience would do.

  1. if you aren’t deficient you most likely have many months of b12 store.

  2. the tablet is about 1000x what your body can absorb daily. Don’t take two.

  3. unless you are just starting the treatment for a profound deficiency don’t sweat about it, but do build yourself a better system to remember.

  4. you won’t be anemic because you forgot a few dose, same thing with neurological symptoms: if you feel bad there is probably another explanation.

  This isn’t medical advice because we don’t live under the same laws and maybe i don’t have your full information…

  Some vegan look into yeast as a source of b12 : same problem than the tablet you need to remember to add it to your recipes. Since your lack of b12 comes from a diet choice we can expect your stomach to produce the “intrinsic factor” required to absorb b12 : you are fine.

  Step one : do some activity where you genuinely want to be there involved in that activity. You will meet new people there, it can’t happen if you stay home inactive. You are happy with your own person at this point.

  Step two : be kind towards everyone there and show interest to new people with a curiosity state of mind. Talk to people, not only people of direct romantic interest…

  Step three : “i had fun spending time with you tonight, is there a way for me to text you to do something together soon?”

  Step four : most of the time, when you text to invite you use the word date only once, but it need to be there. She will notice and register that you don’t aim for platonic.

  Step five : its out of your control, if there is reciprocal interest you will feel things moving, if it’s not moving over 8-10 dates you need to check within yourself if it’s the relationship you want and discuss the divergence with her. At that point every couple is different, you build the style of communication that will characterize your relationship going forward in this early phase. Let her bring the sex topic first, or most of it.

  Dating app will push you just a bit faster to 3-4, but you are doing every step before that through your phone with artificial/imperfect feedback.
