    BTW -- did she give you her work number? If not, don't call or email her without her permission. Just go visit your friend at work and "accidentally" bump into her.

    Tool late guys. I called her at work. Found it out through friends. She was impressed that I put in thw work to find the information out. She said it was "sweet" that I was making the effort. Not sure what that means. She did remember who i was immediately though.

    See, you're so excited you're mis-spelling words. Calm down. Ok..we can do this man....you got her, all the signs are there..go in for the kill, dinner...wine...Kenny G..wait--scratch the Kenny G...um, Luther Vandross and chick flick. That's the ticket.

    NOW.....just be yourself.

    WAIT A MINUTE...you're in Alaska? Ah hell...ok, change of plan. Light the fire in the Igloo, ah...bring the sleigh dogs in for warmth...ummm..put her on the bear skin and start talkin all smooth-like. Trust me on this. Pretend like you're all interested in her dreams and junk, then....

    Well, it was kind of a mixed bag, but exactly what I expected. I was hesitant to call her, because when we were talking at the party, she was already talking to someone about how the party was her last chance for a few weeks to have fun becuase she is travelling for work. So I knew she probably wouldnt be around, but I figured if I didnt call her, she wouldnt remember who I was by the time she got back. So when I talked to her yesterday, she didnt say "no" per se, but just said she couldnt make any plans until her work travel slowed down. I gave her my number and she told me to call her in a couple of weeks if I didnt hear from her before then. Hard to say, but I think if she had wanted to just blow me off or had zero interest she would have said so. Believe me, this woman doesnt mince words. We shall see I guess.....

    Oh, so she's "busy" huh? She has to eat doesn't she? How difficult or time consuming could it be to meet someone for a quick lunch--particularly if you are interested in finding out more about them?

    Maybe she really is consumed with work. Maybe she wants to be chased a little bit. You have to determine whether she is worth playing this game.

    She won't even be in town for the next 2 weeks, and I know this to be fact because I work in the same field and I know exactly where she's going to (big geeky science conference). This woman is definately worth the work. Beautiful, intelligent, nice; the full package.

    Sounds good man. she wants to see if you're in it for the long haul. Wait a few weeks and call her. Rome wasn't built in a day. You're right, if she wasn't interested, she would not have suggested you call her---

    You know, back home in Missouri they called me the "woman whisperer" there's a reason for that young buck, stick with me on this and she'll be bossing you around in no time...LOL. I'm like Mel Gibson in "What Women Want"; I can hear their thoughts, I'm tuned to their needs, I can predict their next move...I have the powah.

    To most women there are 2 kinds of attraction---there's the "spur of the moment" attraction, then there's the long term "you understand me" attraction. The latter is powerful ju-ju brother. Right now she wants to see if you just liked her for the moment---or do you want to know more...

    All you need to do is go to the 'Fun with Troy' thread and print the picture out. Put the elastic band around your melon.

    Go ahead, you can say it.....I'm right huh? Ain't I? My wife loves my behind--I'm so tuned into her, I get up and change the thermostat before she can say "I'm cold honey." :D That's why I get cool stuff at Christmas--I'm a finely tuned instrument.

    +1 on the flowers, always a good gesture--get her 3 roses. One red, one orange, one pink. Tell her the red one is her, the orange one is you; the pink one is "us." Dinner and a movie---movies are great because people tend to be brave in the dark; and theaters are usually cold, requiring said woman to hold on to you to stay warm. (security, protection, cavemen, it's all there)

    Man I'm good. You can't buy this stuff. Dr. Phil ain't got **** on me. Oh, and make sure you bathe.

    Remember to bathe. Man, I knew I was forgetting something!

    Seriously though, I suspect that she is going to wait and see if I call her. I told her if I didnt hear from her before Christmas, I would call her myself, so thats the plan guys (and gals). I was told by someone at the party where I met her that she is on the lookout for a man, so I guess we shall see. I think I've made my position pretty clear to her.

    So you're skipping lunch and going straight to dinner?

    I personally think movie is a bad idea on the first date....no chance to talk and find out about each other. It's not like you're going to put the moves on her in the dark....or will you?

    Agreed with Danny. Start slow & go to lunch. If you can't do it during the weekday then go on the weekend.

    Give her a choice, ask if she would like to go to lunch or to dinner.

    Sorry to barge in here, but I wanted to offer 2 cents. Dinner and a movie is a horrible way to get to know someone and actually have fun.(in my experience) If you have a buddy at the same place she works and you all are in the same field of work, seems like you and your buddy should put together a happy hour with fellow "work friends". Make sure she'll be there. Make sure you have some friends there and she'll see the following:
    1) You could put together a gathering of people and everyone had fun.
    2) With friends there you have other people to talk to so you can always leave her wanting just a little more of your conversation...but your just so darn popular you have to network with other people.
    3) She'll have the chance to watch you from across the room and day dream a little.

    Trust me, this is the only way to go. You keep short lively conversation with her on YOUR time then you conveniently need to go talk to someone else...then you happen to find your way back to her to make sure she knows you haven't forgotten about her. Always walk away just before the conversation starts to stall...don't let it stall and then walk away. That way you always have a reason to go back to talk to her. Pay attention to what she is drinking and bring her one when you go back to her. It'll work like you won't beleive.
