I was full GAL at bomb drop.So was W.

Absolutely be available to him, but do not do this in a needy way. Do not do it in a pursuing way.

Learn as much as you can about attractions and seduction. There is a big difference. During this stage of the process, you really want to be seductive. Seduction is very counter-intuitive if you are not already skilled in this area.

There is a link in this post to the books I found helpful:

Spend some time reading the quotes in those threads as well. They are filled with wisdom.
