On the one hand, I think it's up to the woman to send the subtle message that a sexual reference would be well-received. And I can see where if the guy is the FIRST one to introduce sexual innuendo, it might seem too pushy and forward.
OTOH if SHE brings up sex first, then she will never know if he would have mentioned it if she hadn't, kwim?
I guess it depends on how blatant the innuendo was...
Just bear in mind, Mojo, you don't want to WONDER if he's really into you. You want him to stick his neck out and take the risk. You deserve to have the guy take a risk for you. You don't want a lazy guy like Mr. Mojo who needs to be told and shown what he wants, and then forced to do it.
It's very confusing isn't it? All I can say is that I think if I were to send you the transcript of our e-mail conversation so far you would say something like "This one's a keeper." to me. But, as I've learned in my profession, you can't judge a book by its cover or even the first few pages you gotta check the whole thing for bent corners, worm-holes and must and even then it just might not be worth reading.
Are you really wondering how blatant the innuendo was when you know that I am the one who offered it? Pretty d*mn blatant I would say but not thoroughly out of context. He was asking me about what kind of music I like and I answered the question at some length but then closed with the lyrics to a very sexual song and then typed "You like?" and ended the e-mail.
