I agree. Date casually, and see where things go.

The good thing is this...

She broke up with her boyfriend before dating you.

Yea, she already told me she doesn't want me to be a "rebound" boyfriend. I definitely want to take it slow because I don't want to jump into this and get hurt cause I moved too fast. I'm thinking long term so giving her some time isn't too hard.

But yea, I've been hoping for this to happen for a long time and its pretty crazy its happening. I'm cautious not to get overzealous which happens to me when I really like something.

I was tempted to do that but I know for sure if she found out, I'd definitely ruin my chance. I was actually talking to someone else before all this happen and stopped talking to her. This is my chance and I don't want to ruin it.

Don't ruin it and remember, second chances occur occasionally so take your time and get to KNOW her. Sounds like you both want this so do it right and do it well.

If you want this to badly, I don't think thats good. Manage your expectations and take things slowly.

Desperate men aren't really a turn on, so I'm told. If you want this to badly, its a need.

Yea, I get that. We were suppose to met up today but she wanted to do it Friday after work instead. I currently live about an hour away so Friday works better for both of us.

Good advice though. Definitely need to tone down my game so I don't scare her off.

I thought for sure someone would hate on me for trying this out.

No hate, OP, just encouragement. Sounds like a sweet story. Good luck, give us updates!

And yet, if he didn't want this badly then it wouldn't be worth pursuing.

There is a difference between saving to buy the boat of your dreams over time, and running out and getting two more extra mortgages on your house to do that.

A similar situation here. He wants to be with her and thats great. But needing to be with her, need drives people to desperate action.

I agree with the others who say go for it or you'll regret it . Besides that you'll still see her every so often so that would be painful .
