    Well months of talking & our 2nd date – we talked talked, talked, talked … all while I noticed sign after sign that you mention, fidgeting, twirling her necklace, shifting around in her seat – all of the above. Our night went … it just flew by – hours felt like minutes. In the end, we’re both fidgeting & stealing glances at eachother. I really felt … the same thing was going through both of our minds.

    Our next date is V-day, and she’s invited me over her place. I think I should be good from here on in – and I’m really REALLY hoping she’s my one ; I’ve been in this spot before, but I can say with solid assurance I’ve never felt like this about anyone I’ve –[i]ever[/i]– met before. Thanks for the advice!

    ( The way I’m feeling right now – I’m expecting to wake up any minute now. LOL! 🙂 )

    I can’t help overethinking things! It’s what I’ve been doing for a living. It’s a really good habit for my career, but a bad habit because it spills over into my offtime.

    Our next date, I invited her to a pretty pricey dinner … do you think … with V-day coming up the week after, is it too soon to give her a nice little gift? ( I was thinking something simple ; just a nice-size box of expensive Belgian chocolates – should I mention the brand – the [i]very[/i] pricey ones in the gold boxes – not supermarket stuff. Small – but very nice. I mean, I’d spend ten times as much on a real gift from a jeweler … but … well, I think it’s a little too early for that. 🙂 )

    I’ve read your book … and picked up some things from there which I found helpful.

    🙂

    We’re on our 2nd date this weekend ; this time to somewhere a whole lot more [i]personal & private[/i]! On our first time out, we talked nonstop for about 40 minutes before a movie ; since then we’ve been talking for hours almost daily. The more I talk with her, the more excited I’m getting!

    I’m still worried about being superficial ; she’s *very* attractive to me (though, I suppose someone else may consider her average. I like –[i][u]everything[/u][/i]– about her, not just her looks), but I’m really more interested in learning everything I can about her as a person. If things start getting physical … should I ; or shouldn’t I? I would love it, but I’d rather really let a true, deep, lasting friendship bloom – and get to know every corner of her mind – and let her do the same about me (she’s really been doing that!) … than move right on to the obvious. I really am not concerned with a physical relationship ; that can be picked up anywhere – I want something far more than that – where our physical relationship is just a minuscule portion of what we have. 🙂
