I feel like I'm in an odd time dilation experiment, but it's one I'm willing to continue... I have been on two dates with a girl since Halloween, and we have shared one sweet simple kiss. It's a question of distance, physically, and... some other sort. I am not used to casual dating in general, or dating women specifically. She is brilliant, and beautiful and honest. She shares some of my more peculiar vices and is terrifically flawed as all humans should be. She is also a virgin, which shouldn't terrify me as much as it does, but...

I am used to friendships with women, I am used to having crushes on women or giving them pleasure without expecting it in return. Once, I gave pleasure to a woman who fell in love with me, but I was too crazy and stupid at the time to notice (to be fair, she played things pretty close to the vest and was not usually the falling in love type - it took her by surprise as well). I am happy to take this new relationship as slowly as possible, to make sure that I won't miss anything this time...
