going to call her about that hike soon?
-JF

I have called her a few times, and we have had some pleasant conversations.

However, I haven’t been able to get her to commit to a time yet. She’s a full-time student, and a full-time mom to a six-year-old, and her only availability to “go out” is Thursday nights and Saturday mornings. Which, just happen to be the days she usually goes to yoga.

I asked if she’d like to go dancing on Thursday night, but she had to “check her schedule” and get back to me.

I think she likes me, and I think she’s interested in going out, but I also think she’s struggling with her priorities, and I’m not going to be one of them.

So anyway….the ball is in her court. If she calls me to confirm, great. If not…well, then I guess at the very least, I learned that I’m capable of doing this again. It didn’t kill me…but damn! was is nerve-racking.

woohoo! The hike was a great idea. School-kid-life…definitely a challenging balance. Saturday morning breakfast/coffee date might be fun??? Fingers crossed

I guess as a girl, it doesn’t even occur to me that guys are nervous at all or even more than us ladies. You are so sweet-go Brian!

(two cheers for your entry, btw)
Interesting that when we approach someone who we think is gonna say no anyway, there’s no nervousness.

Need time with her? Here’s watch’yer gonna do… (well maybe).
Say she needs to go see her parents, which is ¾ to 1 hour away… just get some friends to help borrow all the tires from her car, then you call her that morning & say “hey if you ever have car trouble or need a ride, give me a call.” Find out what time she plans on leaving & park right across the street & wave to her when she sees her car has no wheels & offer her that ride. Tell her you have some “extra tires” & you can get them for her while she’s away.
Then, if it’s like ½ hour away, have one of your female friends pick her up to bring her home & they can talk about you on the way.

Okay maybe then it’ll just make an interesting movie scene.
