Well you know, after reading rr's article on pursuer/avoider....I was freaked out about initiating anything! Could be a good idea. I had as one of my goals that he ask me out, but Idon't see that happening. Now for when...we're both quite busy right now... well I'm just downright scared. I did the pursuey thing for many months at first - I do fear rejection and pumping up his ego.
On the other hand your'e right. we're in a different place now.
