- Well, you sound insecure to me and that's not bad, but not particularly fun.
- You're letting her dictate the "terms" of things without even letting her
- know there *is* a "game" afoot. Just ask her out, tell her you're interested
- in her and see what she says. Rejection, if it happens, ain't *that* bad.
- 'Course it does tend to put a damper on the fantasy part :-)
-
- If you're becoming "absorbed" by her, well, that's not a good dign, IMO.
- But *fanasty* has the abiliity to do that. Get back to 'reality', i.e.
- more down to earth. Just *talk* to her and tell her you find her ______
- (your choice) and say you'd like to spend some time getting to know her
- better. Might as well. If she is or becomes interested in youm then
- fantasy can become reality (which is *much* more fun, IMO). If not, then
- you can get with your life and find someone else. No one person is
- the "all".
