Easing Off The Brakes
Q. I have gone on four dates with a dude and he has not even remotely attempted to put the moves on me yet. We’ve barely pecked on the lips, and he keeps suggesting dates that cannot easily lead back to one of our apartments. What’s the dillyo?
A. Maybe he’s a Civil War era southern gentlemen vampire who still prefers his anachronistic customs of courting, escorting, and protecting damsels in petticoats to dating today’s independent women in daisy dukes. (Sorry, I’ve been watching a lot of True Blood in my down time.)
Honestly, it’s hard for me to tell you what’s going on in his head. I’m no Sookie. (It’s been a lot, a lot of True Blood.) But I can tell you that in these modern times, dating, ideally, is a two-way street. What’s stopping you from suggesting a date, or making a move yourself? Or god forbid you forthrightly ask him “what’s the dillyo.” (It pained me to have to retype that). Who knows, a conversation wherein you address the current speed of your relationship could result in the revved up action you’re after. Fortune (and foreplay) favors the bold. Be brave.
