I guess this came b/c I've in some emotional turmoils lately. Dating hasn't panned out and I'm just so antsy for something to happen.


I met yet another man through work that for some crazy reason feel a little excited about. It may or may not be romantic in nature. OK, so here's the story. I first met him

I don' t really expect too much romance wise but I do like the idea of moving in his cirlce.

If he is gay you have to expect NOTHING romance wise. My very good friend the "professor" is a gay women. One of the things she has shared with me is that I am one of the only men she knows that has not in some way tried to use her to play out some "fantasy" or another. I "get it" . . she likes girls. (-: I don't get to play. Can you just have a friendship, professional or otherwise with him?


You are a smart one . . . enough said? (-: I have gay friends . . it has never presented a problem. I don't see why it would with him if things otherwise are on a mutually satisfying and

Hi Oldjar,


I was thinking too why wouldn't he want me along? I can be good company and a good assistant. I was just insecure b/c when I asked "when can I go with you?" and he said "there's a meeting

You are the girl on the scene . . is he being polite and networking on a professional level? Or is he kind of inviting someone new, (you), into his inner circle. Your call, just play it out and see what happens. I always ask people to be squeaky wheels and call, email, contact me, hit me with there car . . LoL . . .

Hi White_satin,


I thought I'd respond to your question since I'm familiar with similar situations.

Hi Oldjarhead,


"hit you with their car?" that's funny. I like the response if he's not gay as well. Very charming, flirtatious, but appropriate. I do seel cocktail parties in our future. So, I'll play it out and see :)


At this time, to avoid being disappointed I'm aiming for only a professional connection and would be happy enough if he welcomes me on these political excursions.

It's bad to be insecure but I've never been the woman men drool over you know.

You just described two thirds of the population. (-: I am not one of those men that has lines standing outside my door anxiously awaiting there turn either. (-:


In the end I have come to the conclusion that if a women fails to notice my extraordinary charms then she is clearly not smart enough to be dating me anyway. LoL


Good luck, and keep me posted. (-:
