P-C, the only thing I would add is that if she contacts you again about game night, go, get to know her and others at the event.

This was the plan.

But also don't wait around and pine (not suggesting you were, but endorsing), there are other fish in the sea, so find others while not closing other doors.

This was also the plan.

Okay, you guys, you WISH you had a sister as awesome as mine. My sister found a Kindle Touch 3G at Target on clearance (they're not selling Kindle products anymore) for $75 plus tax. I had ordered my new Kindle Touch Wi-Fi on Sunday, but it hadn't shipped yet, so...for twenty bucks cheaper, I'm getting 3G. And I was going to send her a check, but when she told my dad, he said it would be a gift from them.

If memory serves, there were many males and very few females at the dating event. As such, part of me wonders how many of the other guys have been asking her out and possibly overwhelming her (my total mental what if's). She may not know who she wants to date until she gets to know each guy better. So maybe that is the point of game night. Just the thoughts rattling in my brain based on no experience, ever.

My brother totally has one. (Two words: Taxidermied. Bullfrog.) (But it isn't 3G, so there's that.)

It's a Dude Buffet!

What? I said I was never good at the whole dating thing. I would totally believe that Dude Buffets are the new hipster thing to do.

But only organic, locally sourced dudes allowed.

Dang, that IS totally hipster.

I am trying to figure out the criteria for a person to be certified organic. I fear it means deodorant-free.

Yeah. I mean, it's logical and all but attraction doesn't develop over time for me. I guess I could try not making out with people I'm attracted to... but it doesn't seem likely at this point.

Surprisingly, I am smonster and meara on this, too. And I say surprisingly because I am a big I introvert. But, I actually like going out on dates. They can be a lot of fun. Occassionally, they can be not so much fun, too, if the guy is not so much fun, but then at least drinks and/or dinner!

One guy I went on dates with and it turned into something, about five years later. It was ten years before I realised they'd been dates. He had at least one relationship between us "dating" and us becoming naked.

I have no idea what to advise wrt dating, because I am totally incompetent that way and really glad to not be in the market.

But I would totally be down with a 3G taxidermied bullfrog.

The idea of being attracted to someone enough to want to make out with them without having had multiple conversations with them on multiple occasions is completely foreign to me.

This is probably the healthy way to do it but it's not my way. Of course, I sort of suck at relationships so maybe I should try that.
