Tmite, I agree totally with your post, you managed to put into words what I have been thinking for a while.
CL, I've read your posts on this board and you seem to give out very sound advice to others but things seem to be different when it comes to your own sitch. When reading your sitch it sounds as if you tip toe around your W too much and you are ultra cautious, you may see it differently but thats how it reads back to me and maybe others.
When I was in a similar position to you in my sitch the advice I was given by a fellow member was to "break the ice" with W. At the time I had no idea what he meant, but what he was saying was make a move on W. I thought no (censored) way but he insisted I give it a try.
Anyway, I tried and got the expected refusal, but I think W took at as a statement of my intent as very soon afterwards we were ML on a fairly regular basis. Lanzo - No Way !!! Lanzo - We ML
So you won't know unless you try. I not saying put real moves on W if you're not ready, but I mean start moving things forward. W has just bought a new TV, a new couch, shes asked if you want to watch a movie sometime, What are you waiting for ? I think you should already have your movie evenings planned. Lanzo - movies with W There is an olde English saying A faint heart never won a fair ladys hand". Are you of faint heart ?
