    Hi Mike, another great and really helpful post, as usual!

    I just wanted to say regarding #10, the girl who keeps talking… I wanted to say that often times it IS selfishness, but you are also RIGHT about the other alternative, someone just getting nervous by your looks or charm, etc.

    I had a lot of trouble with this issue with one guy I really like– every time I tried to have a conversation with him I would get so excited, it’s like the energy was pouring out in the form of talking… and talking… I was witnessing this but still couldn’t stop it! It was obviously annoying and I was bugging even myself with this retarded behavior. I just went kuckoo every time I tried to interact with this guy.

    One day online, some people were discussing what makes a good or bad kisser. They were saying how horrible it is when you go to kiss somebody and they just ram their tongue down your throat. Suddenly I realized my crazy talking over this guy was the conversational equivalent of the bad kisser. ICK!!! And how humiliating!

    I hardly hear from this guy (there’s a surprise) but at least now when I do, I keep this visual strongly in my mind. It works! I’m not talking like a crazy person anymore, and I can hold a more receptive space for him.

    So I would say, when someone is talking like that, yes they might be just thinking about themselves. ~ORRRR~ maybe they are really into YOU and they can’t handle it. ;-)

    I know what you mean about the talking. I haven’t experienced it on my side before since I am not that comfortable talking.

    I once went out with a girl that not only talked a ton but was so nervous she was sweating and shaking. I felt awful for her and I didn’t know what to make her comfortable. So I kissed her and after a good 5 minutes of this she was fine. =)

    I totally agree! Having made those mistakes myself, I am happy to say I have learned from them and DO NOT do them anymore.

    Cheers!

    I’m pretty sure she had diarrhea of the mouth. I told you that was probably why she babbled on and on. She was overwhelmed that someone so hot was talking to her that she couldn’t help herself. One day it will happen to you and when you call me and cry, I will tsk tsk at you. LOL.

    Ok so overly available–this one is always hard for me because I just want to go out…it really doesn’t matter with who. So right now, talking to all of these guys and waiting for one of them to just ask me out already is SO difficult.

    I would really like to see the girl that makes me ramble out of fear. I few months ago I met a very famous actress through my sister and I went into stalking mode. She invited my sister and out over for coffee and I felt a sense of pride that I reacted so well. Never went to coffee but I did realize in retrospect I was actually the prey. Too bad I never got eaten, I think my sister understood what was going on and killed it before any slaughter could occur.
    The available part is not so hard as long as you make it clear you only have time in certain slots. You are only trying to communicate that you can and will not cater to him.

    Can a woman ever be the one to suggest progressing the relationship further? I want to draw a line in the sand (boyfriend or nothing), but it is against my better judgement to ever bring it up. Trouble is… it’s only been 3 weeks. But I have been acquaintances/friends with him for much longer and we are comfortable to a certain level, but make out sessions are super awkward. I like him enough to work through it if he likes me, but I don’t want to stick around if it’s just a hookup. We’ve had dinner dates and hung out with each other’s friends so it feels like it is more, but I just want to know for sure if it’s going somewhere.
