I think you should go for it and not worry. If it doesn't work out, at least you tried. She might be the one, and if you don't see you will regret it. Good luck.
OP- sounds like you're just growing up and know what you want. If you've dated enough, you should know your likes, dislikes, and dealbreakers.
I feel like you can know fairly quickly whether someone is worth getting to know. Fall in love? Maybe not so much. But you can certainly tell if you want to know more in 5 hours!
OK so maybe I overstated things a little when I wrote the title of this post. But as it is, each time I talk to this girl I like her a little bit more, and yes she is starting to look attractive to me too as incredible as that might seem!
So I've met her parents and introduced her to mine. That's not as big a deal as it would normally be since we all live in the same area, but still, it is a 'step' I suppose.
This is a big deal, at least to me. I felt honored that my now husband took me to meet his parents within 3 weeks. After we were married, I found out that had only happened with one other girl (and they were not happy with her).
BUT is 5 hours anywhere near enough time to have your interest legitimately piqued in someone?
yes, absolutely
as long as you are able to make the distinction between having your "interest piqued" and deciding to spend the rest of your life with them.
all you really need to know at any given moment, is the next step. so if you want to see her again, trust yourself, trust your feelings, and see her again. all you're deciding on is the next date, not whether you sleep together or get married, (for those items, 5 hours is definitely not enough time).
i would say it is MORE likely as a person gets older and more mature (we hope) and knows themself better (we hope) and is aware of their patterns (we hope), that it is MORE likely to have a better sense of what appeals to us, and also have the willingness and ability to trust ourself, trust our feelings, trust life, and go with it, rather than second-guessing it all or staying in the mind so much thinking about life, that it prevents us from doing life.
I haven't spoken to her in nearly a week and I'm really starting to miss her
Uh oh...sounds like someone's in love.....
