    Hi, remember my post a while ago? Well, Wednesday she calls at 10:00, and we talk on the phone for two hours. THursday, she calls at 12:02, and we talk for four hours. Then she invites me to go grocery shopping with her at Costco. I'm still confused.

        What in the world are you confused about? Stop being confused. It looks like she is very much interested in you. Make your move and figure your doubts later. If you just sit on your behind being confused she will loose interest in you before you get a chance to find out what it's all about... Gash, I thought you already got married by now. :) Good luck.

          Just one more thing. Women are much more intuitive creatures than most of the men would ever be. Therefore, I bet you anything that she already knows how you feel about her, because your feelings are spilling out all over the place (even here in the lounge :)). But she will probably not say anything about it or do anything about it until you find it in yourself to open your mouth and tell her what is it you feel for her. And stop analyzing it. Overanalyzing things like that leads to no good. Just do it. :)

                How long does it take to fall in love? It could be a few seconds or minutes. So what are you waiting for? Do you really think it takes 2 month until she notice she's in love with you? I doubt that. Come on, don't waste time! Good luck! Max

                          I spent about a year madly in love with a girl and too scared to tell her. While I don't think anything long term would have come of it, it is definately one of my lifes regrets that in hindsight she felt the same way I did and nothing came of it because I spent my time agonising and over analysing, when I should have just told her. So tell her already. As has been said, she knows already, so you've got little to lose. Christian I have come to clean zee pooollll. - Michael Martin Dec 30, 2001

                            Confused means you don't know how you feel about her. She doesn't have a clue as to how you feel about her either and treats you as a friend. If you want to be a friend (I don't believe in friendships between the sexes BTW) you need to get away from her. If you want the babe...go after it!

(But don't confuse honesty with pouring your heart out). At the end of the evening, casually throw in the "Hey, I had a great time - we should do this again!" thing. At time t (24 hours <= t < 48 hours) give her a call and let her know you had a nice time. This will let her know beyond a doubt that you're interested in more than shopping at Costco. Gauge her reaction, and don't feel bad if it reeks of "platonic". If she responds in kind (don't ask me how you'll know - you'll know!) you're on your way to getting to know each other better. If not, you've just found someone to hang out with and be friends with. Or maybe she just wants more time. Either way, you can't lose. </advice> The important thing to remember is that people come into each other's lives for a reason. Perhaps she's just meant to be your friend. Or maybe she'll end up being the best friend you'll ever have. But you'll never know unless you ask her out. /ravi "There is always one more bug..." http://www.ravib.com ravib@ravib.com

                                      Different people do and want different things. Your advice will never work for me, for example. The problem with doing things the way you have suggested is that it leaves too many maybes for Adam. At the end of the day he will still not have a straight answer to his question. It would just drive him insane. He will go into never ending analysis of every word she said and how she said it and when she said it and what reason she might have to be saying it. I am sure Adam is already doing that, so why not just cut to the chase and resolve the problem. I am not saying act as a Rambo, just be straight with her and tell her what is on his mind. Even if she does not feel like being anything other than a friend she will still be able to be a friend after his words. What is there better than a friend that loves you? If she does not understand that and get scared - she is probably not worthy of his love anyway.

Of course it's entirely possible that at the end of the day Adam will have an answer. But will it be the one he wants? Adam, we await your posts! /ravi "There is always one more bug..." http://www.ravib.com ravib@ravib.com

                                          Gee, what can I say? People have been coming to me for advice for years. :) Hmmm, maybe if I'd followed some of it I wouldn't be spending Saturday night working on my next product... /ravi "There is always one more bug..." http://www.ravib.com ravib@ravib.com
