How does she feel? Just see how she feels.

dude, just bite the bullet and talk to her. tell her how you feel, tell her your concerns, and let her make the call. you're overcomplicating things for yourself. yes, you have to be responsible - but you'll be debating like this until you talk to her. it's really not a big age difference,

If/when you decide to go for it, make sure you're super straight forward. Nothing fucks up potential relationships more than confusion.

Yes, and cell phones that don't work correctly. You'd be amazed at how hurt people can be because one doesn't return a call/text, when in reality the phones probably don't even work.

Maybe it's not ideal to 'throw it at her' before she leaves, but who knows... maybe it will be good to give her time to think about what you said. You've certainly been thinking about it an awful lot... she'll have some time away to do the same.

ya...thats what im thinking

Rusty · Post by **Rusty** » 12/23/2005, 6:36 pm

Just tell her. She'll have time to think it over and get used to it. I'd say go for it.

So an old friend of mine made a move on me last night after dancing around each other for the past three years. All my recent hookups have been pretty fucked up and dead end so I don't know whether to just enjoy these giddy feelings or wonder if all this build up will just lead to another messed up friendship. Ooaargh.

Just because past hookups have been bad doesn't mean this one will be too. If you like him and he obviously likes you, then go for it. Take a chance and see how it goes.

Open converstaion, while sometimes awkward to start, usually seems to help.

Hmm perhaps, but see, me having the sense of a kumquat, didn't manage to break that "friend" wall with this boy during the many years where we lived five minutes apart, nooo, I waited until we'd both moved far away from each other. Because that's how awesome I am.
