    Listen to Jester on the subject.
    Why do the fact that people say this vaguely scare me?

    It's not the end of the world. It's not the only success criteria around.
    Raps is 100% correct. Too many people put too much stress on this. Myself included way too often.

    Ask her if she wants to actually be a couple.
    I have to respectfully disagree. "Do you want to be a couple?" not only sounds awkward, but could creep her out, or scare her off. Just relax, be yourself, enjoy the "date," such as it is, and see what happens. Play it be ear.

        If you were already good friends, just don't be pushy.
        You're absolutely right. Some great relationships start out as friendships.

        Because you're a God and people shouldn't anger you? (going by your signature)

        As for my own 2c here.

        Don't worry too much. I have a friend that has steadfastly refused to start dating until he's finished uni. Which for him is around 2012/2013. (so for him when he's around 23/24-he turns 21 this year) When we were younger, the two of us and another friend of mine wound up sort of joking that one of us was dating him. Later on, it turned out that one of us DID have feelings for him.... That's since faded I think.

        I only had a very brief fling in high school and didn't get into my first real and proper relationship until I was 18.

          Good point. Hard to argue with such superior logic.

              Because you're older, more experienced in this area, and you don't give shitty advice.

                Hmmmm....no, that doesn't sound quite right. I think you probably meant to say this:

                Because you're brilliant, know what you're talking about, and you give fantastic advice.
                Yeah, that's better. "You're older" makes me sound like someone's granddad. And I am still in my damn thirties! (At least for a few more months...)

                  Well, I haven't cleared the stage yet, but I'm continuing to score points, as it were.

                  She had a crappy day yesterday for some reason, so I sent her a text message with a quote from a song we both like...."Baby you're a star [and] I just want to show you you are" which broke the tension and made her smile a little.

                  As a perfect and entirely coincidental addition to that, I found this bag of star-shaped chocolates wrapped in gold foil that my mother had and - with permission - took one. When I saw my crush today, I said "Remember that text I sent you yesterday? Baby you're a star, and I just want to show you are?" and gave her the gold chocolate star.

                  "Awww.....you're the best!"

                  She said she thought that was really clever and that it really brightened her day.

                    Dave, you are such a cheeseball!

                    I say that as a compliment, by the way.

                      Hey, that might have been cheesy, but she liked it, and that's all that matters.

                        No I got it right the first time.
                        And there's nothing wrong with being in your thirties but you are still older than me.

                            What's wrong with some cheese?

                            If anything its Hubby's odd sense of humor and random cheesiness that won me over in the end.
