Okay, I know a few Libras, & she was sooooo fishing with those text messages. Would you just come out and tell her how you feel already? She's practically begging you to. This is just going to get too annoying for me to even watch.
You ask her if she's listened to a song on the CD you made her (I'm assuming that's what you meant) and she replies not just that she has listened to it but that it's a nice "love song." ...Fishing for you to say "that song is exactly how I feel about you." Not, "oh yeah it took me like years to learn it...blahblahblah." Which is why she responded all like "cool" you're so artistic and motivated....BORING.
Then she thanks you for cooking for her and implies no other guy has cooked for her before. You tell her she's the first girl you've cooked for...and she comes back with "what made you decide to cook for me?" ...OMG HELLO fishing for to come back with "you're really special, I really like you, I want you to have my babies," etc.
briana...i did tell her the song crush was about her w/o coming right otu and saying it...she knows it
and when she asked me what made you cook for me...i told her straight out "in this world ,all you can do is be yourself...last night was not a trick or an act, its who i am...and it was my pleasure to cook for you....i did it because you deserve it"
shes like "thank you so much for realizing that" then she told me her rose died
so i said, "well, its ok, it was just a 'friendship' rose anyway"
sehs like "well what kind of rose did u want to get"...i sad the pink red color that u like but they didnt have it...i didnt know yellow meant friendship"
She knows..trust me..she knows...but im not going to start telling her how "in love" I am with her hwen she hasnt exactly told me how she feels. Remember, its only 3 dates...im taking it slow expressing how i feel...im letting her know w/o coming right out and telling her. She knows.
I feel that God is guiding me along with her at a great pace. And i have no regrets at this point. None at all. So far, ive been my complete self....what ive told her through conversation or phone or text has come from the heart...and I just feel that things are going very very well.
She initiated the convo twice yesterday...once in the afternoon and again at night. She said "im in bed just thinking. Thank you for cookign for me, no guy has ever done that"....so that tells me right there what shes thinking about. Shes starting to see that im not your average 26 year old guy.
God is moving things along at the right pace...so i think...i have no complaints or regrets....1 day at a time
? Then i asked her about V-day...and i asked her if she wanted to come otu with me...and shes like where? So i said its a surprise, i just need to know if your going to come. So shes like where, i need to know? So i just told her about the cruise around NYC. And she said she may be goign to see Marc Anthony at MSG on Vday but she would let me know.
This tells me something. Still thinking it through though. I think if it was something different, she would have cut plans on the concert and went with you. I know personally, I would be VERY uncomfortable re: the night cruise thing. I really would. I would go along with it but more in a grin and bear it kinda way.
If that was my choice, and I knew the guy was in the bag, I would pick the concert. Not a Marc Anthony concert, something decent, but you get the picture. 😛
? The fact she didn't feel well and came over is a good thing. If she even had a little doubt, she may have used the 'not feeling well' part to not show. MHO
Agreed!
? So she was probably driving home being like "man, he had me alone in the house, and didnt try to take advantage of me"..
Sometimes being taken advantage of is fun.
? *** she just texted me saying she forgot cupcakes at my house ***
Did you offer to take them over to her and kiss her there?
? "urgency and want" and not just on paper!
Hear! Hear!
? there's a slight insecurity on her part about her age that will stop her making a move if he backs down now...
Her age thing isn't that she feels old and ugly. Her age thing is she doesn't want to invest in something that isn't real.
? but how can you LOVE someone you have been out with three times?
Easily.
? Would you just come out and tell her how you feel already? She's practically begging you to.
YES. Hello?!?!? *Swings a frying pan at Denny's head.* Maybe not in love but she is totally feeling you out. You have kind of been thrown for a loop. The girl texts you from bed? Helloooo?!??! That was a major flirt. She wonders if you think she is attractive.
? so i said, "well, its ok, it was just a 'friendship' rose anyway"
NOOOooooooooOOOOOOoooooo! Why did you say that?
BAD Denny! Bad! *rolls up newspaper and swats Denny on the nose*
Is she from Columbia Denny? Did she grow up on Columbian food? I was thinking this over on the weekend and think that is next. Take a bit of an interest in her traditions/cultures/ect.
heres the thing about V-day. I took a gamble. Its a very big thing...night cruise, NYC roses, champagne, Jazz band..its a big big dea. Im not feelign uspet at all if she doesnt want to come. It may be too much too soon. It was a sweet gesture from me but also a gamble. I knew that. If the cocnert thing falls through, i may suggest something less big. It doesnt mean she dotn like me, thats not how im taking it anyway. It may be too big a thing too soon and i get it.
As with the flower...i said it as a joke, meaning it was just a 'friendship' rose. Meaning that I dont want to be just friends. I had no idea yellow meant friendship. I got it for her because she likes the color yellow. How am i supposed to know the meaning, im not a florist.
Come out and tell her how i feel? Come on, im doing exactly that just w/o coming straight out and saying it. Im not going to start telling her how in love I am with her...it may scare her off. She knows why im telling her over and over agian to listen to crush....she knows she was teh ONLY girl i ever cooked for, she knows i like her. Come on. She knows. And i also have a thing where if the girl knows the guy likes her THAT much, taht she will get turned off. It may not be true, but i see it happen all the time...thats why im letting her know w/o coming straight out and telling her the extent of it. Eventually shes going to knwo and i am goign to tell her, i just dont think after 3 dates its the right time to have that talk yet
Empanadas are delicious and I know they are South American. I think Argentina or Chilean.
Had you not cooked for her before I would say learn how too cook a great South American dish. I know THAT would impress me. BUT too much after just cooking for her. 😢
i dont know what level of touching...i mean i hug and kiss her hello and goodbye but i dont consider that anything.
When we were sititng eating, she reached over and grabbed my wrist to see what my bracelet meant.
But we were eating....there really isnt a lot of oppurtunity for touch when your sitting across the table eating. Thats why i wanted to take her to the movies...thats when i woudl have held her hand and maybe kissed her hand or something. But we didnt go.
If I were you, I think your next day should be to see a band. You both love music. Go and see a band you both like. LOTS of reasons to touch there. Definetly do the hand on the lower back thing.
🙂
I don't think you are going to get this girl to a movie. She keeps side stepping it. Sounds like she prefers to be more engaged.
lol last year, one of the directors came in and said to his secretary, 'hope you got something long and red today' - everyone gasped and she went bright red 🙂
roses in the work place is slightly embarassing for me... bit too much... I might secretly enjoy it but the guys will laugh so much - not worth it...
what of make out movie? I thought everyone that went to movie date just made out? that's what couples tend to do while I'm trying to watch a movie - you would think they were going to suck the life out of the other 😕
? hate movie dates personally. i see them as a waste of time. can't talk to the guy...can't pay attention to the movie cause you want to make out. yup...hate movie dates.
Me too! I was going to ask Denny if she suggested that before they started dating.
? sparrow will hate this...but besides her i am not sure there is a woman alive who does not like getting roses at work.
HA H AHA!
😛
Actually, I don't mind flowers at work. It can be a nice touch when it is unexpected. The only time I didn't appreciate it was when I had just started dating this guy and wasn't that in to him, but hadn't told him yet. He sent me roses to work. I happened to sit next to a very cute guy who I had a happy flirtation with. He saw the flowers and the flirtation ended. I ?broke up? with flower sender a week later.
(Don't let that scare you Denny!)
In Denny's case, I think she is a nurse so I am not sure what is appropriate.
He ended up dating another girl we worked with a few months later. They ended up moving in together and were together for many years until quite recently.
she is not workign on V-day...and if she was I would not get her flowers sent to her job...i was trying to get her address so i coudl send them to her house but...i dotn knwo her address...i would not send them to the job...i dont know if she would get embarrased, and again, at this point its a gamble im not willing to take right now.
I will think of something to do for her. But i should start thinking now because its not too far away. My friend said get her marc anthony tix at msg because thats waht she really wants. But idk.
Oh God, dont buy $ 600 tickets in the hope she will go with YOU. Flowers and/or chocolates are always safe and not expensive. This girl hasnt given you anything to make you feel secure so I wouldnt at all think about something so expensive.

For real. Please see it.
