I should wear the cloak. I am nervous about it.

You should wear the cloak! An earnest but geeky LOTR fan might think you look cool in it, and overcome his shyness enough to say "hello!" to you.

Ugh, I'm a hopeless romantic.

OK Bear, just on that chance, I will wear it!

What makes you think the cloak wouldn't drive him away?
