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...
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.
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 ??
