I have been here and reading along but I haven't been in the right space to contribute much but I know that you've been getting some excellent advice from your regular contributors.
Wow GAG. I love the fact that Mr. GAG initiated the restaurant...this is creating a wonderful little habit to follow up after your weekly TT.
It all sounds very, very comfortable and although I know you are challenged by the lack of speed in this case, i think Antonia is correct and things are unfolding as they should in a new relationship...slowly but surely. The laughing and talking and sharing of information sounds really natural and comfortable and like MR GAG is allowing himself to enjoy your company.
The lingering is another really positive interaction.
