Sigh, I never thought that I would break down and consider dating but it has happened. Don't worry, the things that I have said about "waiting for them to come to me" is still holding true. Actually I am not even sure if we are dating or just friends, but I know that she likes me. I like her too. This is the closest I have ever gotten.

The whole relationship kind of snuck up on me (which is why I am still not sure if we are dating or friends). I knew her from a junior high youth rally that we both volunteered at and from Idaho Catholic Youth Convention (ICYC) but I hadn't talked to her in about two years. When I saw her up here she was just another familiar face that I remembered from before college and I really didn't think anything of her, but she kept stopping by my room whenever she was on the 11th floor (which was rather often considering that she lives on the 10th floor).

Tonight she invited me over to her room for dinner (which I couldn't turn down because she wouldn't let me go to the LLC to get something to eat). After playing DDR for a few hours, I took her up on her invitation. Showered and fresh smelling (yeah... would seem like quite the occasion) we ate and then proceeded to talk for about 2.5 hours. Scary, I have never talked to a girl for that long.

Two things are scaring me about this whole thing though. One is that she manipulated me into staying longer. I couldn't leave without her saying goodbye... even as I was walking out the door telling her that I was leaving I couldn't until she dismissed me, so to speak. Damn... I think I am whipped. Even Yohan was obeying her earlier!

The other thing is that she likes to dance. Yes... I have a very good record with me staying away from dancing and I really don't want to ruin that. Two weeks ago I went swing dancing with a girl from my chemistry class so I have had more than enough dancing for the next few years. Gah. Dancing :@.

We will see how this goes. Man, I can't lose my reputation for avoiding relationships. This could be bad. I guess I could just tell you guys who she is and you could tell her about me and then she would run away, and maybe even move out of the tower. But we will see.
