Yes, you are correct...I can apply the brakes, but since
he came to me...I'll let him steer b/c it seems like the
thing to do - yes, I'm uncomfortable in this situation,
but, friendship is the only course for now...

That is it...I have total control over my life and what I
do...so, you can see the hesitation of my not wanting to
relinquish it over to him...however, I do tend to over
analyze at times - the dress really isn't the issue, but
it seemed to me that instead of not mentioning it, he then
brought it up...so - I panicked.

At seventeen, no, I don't think I would worry about anything he said or had done.

Now - red could be an option...I'll look for something on
Saturday morning to wear...red is bright. That should
make him speechless...yes, I need to go slow.

No, it was a guy's head on the chia pet...but I'll look for
one when I'm out...you sound like me - I have all of the
Taco Bell dogs that talk...plus one huge one that fills a
queen-size bed.

Where have you been? I was waiting for your input. So,
you are saying, like, I'm an elephant? Geez...thanks, for
the, uhhhh, compliment...I wear a size 4. Could you not
have possibly chosen a smaller animal?...lol.

I have all defense modes, shields, walls, whatever up. I
cannot let my guard down...plus, who is to say if this is
just a temporary thing or not. Everyone in the other
forum lives with their S...day, to day...I'm a date.

You know where I'm coming from about wearing black. I'll
get something else...geez.

You all may be sold on his intentions, but I am very, very
cautious...

1210 !

Did you ever have a relationship with someone... end it (for whatever reason).. date someone else (ie. not a baseball fan)... and realize that you should reconsider the former person ?..

You know them really well.. and you know they know you... but there is some "stuff to sort out" ?

I have no doubt that whatever you wear.. you will look stunning btw...

YOU are the tiger btw... and he is on the elephant.. and yes.. the natives are swarming with the banging tin pans !

No. I never dated anyone that I ended the R with - then,
went back to them again...I've always moved on...but, we
aren't talking about hundreds of people either. He was
dating my best friend - only 2 dates - before he asked me
out in front of her at college...so, I had to make a choice
between my friend and him...so she didn't speak to me for
three weeks...then we were fine. Actually, my XH and I
went to her wedding...she's still married to the same guy.

Okay...he's coming around...but, you know there are still
issues...but, right now, until this thing starts really
solidifying...the R talk will be on the back burner, unless
he brings it up.

Well yes of course, 1210 !

There are issues... What I would do if I were in your stripes is find out whether:

1. He is genuine and really has come to understand that you were the person for him, or...

2. He is simply rebounding.. has no idea about what he is all about and is simply acting on impulse.. loneliness.. and lacking HIMSELF.. still..

Thats pretty much what I know about these sort of things.

Either way . .. you are still the tiger, btw.

Then, I would open up Pandora's Box...wouldn't I?

You are right...but after New Years, when every thing will
return back to normal...I could invite him to dinner. That
might be an idea.

It's really iffy...

No PB's 1210 !

Do it the nice subtle 1210 way ! You have learned how to do these things ! You have become a "subtle" questioner.. remember ? It is an art form.. and a really good way to learn about someone.

Oh.. the MB is no longer an MB... Can we just refer to him as a Pine now ??
