Dear ones,

It makes me SO happy to get your posts. Hooooorayyy!!!

I think I need some advice. Can you help? Should I wait for B to contact me about the NYC trip, or should I contact him first? Should I initiate a planning session, or should I just mention that I'll be in NYC? Should I do this by email or phone? Or text?

I was thinking... before I saw him in June we slowly eased into the planning process by mutually hinting over email that we wanted to see each other. And then we had that dinner when he asked me if I liked cheesecake and sang raunchy songs together and everything. IN CONTRAST, before I saw him in August, I procrastinated and then called him and put him on the spot, told him I'd be in NYC and that I'd love to see him while I was there, and asked if he'd be around. then we ended up having that really awkward lunch with the baby carriage, subway confusion, staring at the bike shop window, etcetera. I cannot tell if the "planning process" affected the actual "meeting experience"!!!

I am thinking maybe an email because it is less pressure? Something like,
"Dear B, I am planning to be in NYC in mid-December. Are you going to be around? T"

What are your thoughts, dear friends????
