'Girls love shoes' - sounds like my idea of heaven! My h has an accordion at home, although it sounds like someone’s strangling a cow when he played it! I don't miss that, well actually I do :-)I'm so pleased you are GALing.
It is so difficult isn't it because you had no contact for all that time and then finally he responded and you have seen him twice. It is really hard to strike a balance between keeping up the 'new you' and the need to see him - sort of striking while the iron is hot. I think you have to go on how he reacted to you. Do you think he made it clear that he may like to see you again? He would like to see you again? Or he was pretty cool/ complacent?
How would you normally nurture a friendship? I suppose logically if you met an old friend and were in the same area for a while then you would spend a fair amount of time seeing them. I suppose you have to just judge it on how his reactions to you have been. What you have been doing has worked so far... sorry I'm not much help, it's a difficult one!
