So I'm floating. She stayed the day after all. Woke me up around 8:30am to tell me (so not used to getting up at that hour). Her father dropped her off at a local market area and I went and caught up with her.

Spent the whole day learning more about her, talking for hours non stop, more of the cuddling/nuzzling etc. When I started making my way "round the bases" though, I noticed she would keep telling me to behave (yeah yeah, in public, so what?) but she gave me a very serious looking face and told me that she did want to take things slower this time around because she knows that she likes me and wants to do things "right". (whatever that means)

To be honest, I really don't have any issue with that. Every relationship I've had before were based purely on the physical attraction (not to say I'm not nearly on fire with lust when I'm with her) and it wasn't till I "got to know them later" that I realized I really didn't like them much. Then by that time it was too late to just call it "quits", spending the next months/years trying to force myself to like this person so that the relationship wouldn't fall apart. With new girl, it's not like that. Every minute I'm in her company, talking to her, and every new thing I learn about her just makes me want to spend more and more time with her. Which also makes "waiting" harder too and the realization that now she's headed back "home" I probably won't see her for a while and all the talking we'll do is how much she hates being over there. *sigh*

This is really a new experience for me, sad as it is to say that at 28yrs old, but better nate than lever right?

I wish you well Shego (you wouldn't need it) but glad things are going smoother and slower :)

I'm kinda sorta in that spot right now myself. I really wish things could get real physical real fast, but it was clear from pretty early on that such things wouldn't be on the table. Part of me gets a little frustrated, but enough of me is actually having fun just hanging out/watching movies/cooking strange things/going on walks in the park that 'Big John Thompson' is getting consistently outvoted.

WE HAVE RULES HERE.

---------- Post added at 11:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 PM ----------

Better Nate than Lever isn't a rule!

1. Child Porn – Anyone posting images, either photographic or drawn, of boys and girls who appear underage in sexual or suggestive situations, OR tell stories or events that advocate child pornography or sexual abuse will be permabanned immediately. This is non-negotiable.
2. Arguing with Infraction – If a mod assesses an infraction point or points and you do not agree, you have the right to send that mod or the admins a PM or email to discuss. Whining will probably get you nowhere. If you decide to create a thread or take your complaint public be ready to take 10 points and a 24 hour ban.
3. Hate Speech – We are a very open community and have many, many walks of life. We have people from many races, sexual orientations and religions. Knowing this, hate speech will not be tolerated. Racial epithets or slurs against sexual orientation are not going to be tolerated. If these are reported we will take action. At the very least a warning and 1 point infraction will be assessed, although it is up to the discretion of the mod to give more.
4. NSFW Material – We have a NSFW area for these things. If you think it’s something that is pertinent to the discussion then please put it in spoiler tags with a note that it’s NSFW. As this is one of those open areas which offend some and not others please use discretion if in doubt. If a mod is forced to spoiler it for you then it’ll result in a 1 point warning. This includes such things as graphic nudity, porn, victim pics, etc. Again, if in doubt - PM a mod.
5. Warez/Drugs/Other Illicit Activities – May be discussed on an academic basis or in passing. No instruction, detailed accounts, or the like will be tolerated. Doing so will get you 5 points and a 24 hour ban. If in doubt, take it to PMs.
6. Spam - Members who register and immediately start posting spam links will be banned. If an existing user wants to pimp their page or advertise something that’s more than fine. If it gets out of hand we’ll ask you to stop. Only after that will any points be assessed.
7. Trolling - We have no problems with heated discussion, but require you keep it to the subject at hand. If you're making uncalled for personal attacks or simply posting to get a rise out of another member, you will get very little warnings before there will be repercussions. As a corollary to this, do not randomly attack a poster who has not even contributed to the discussion yet. This is also considered trolling and will be met with the same punishment. Please note that we will take into account who submitted the report as some people take offense too quickly. It will be up to a mod’s discretion whether to assess a point with the warning or to just send a PM.
8. No alt trolling. Creating an alt can be fun & is allowed. However, creating an alt specifically to troll will result in a 1 point infraction and warning for the primary account and a deletion of the alt account. Also, no registering a new account because you have a bad reputation or multiple points. Creation of an alt to circumvent infractions will automatically bump you up to the next level of infraction.
9. Cite your sources. Do not paste quotes from other sources without attribution, especially doing this as a way to post offensive statements with the defense that you were only quoting someone else. In this situation, be prepared to deal with the consequences of having your posts taken at face value. No infractions will be given, you'll just look like a prat.
10. Do not try and play the rules lawyer. Continually skirting the line between rule-breaking and not is unacceptable. The spirit of the rules is important as well as the letter. Basically, don't be a dick. If a warning needs to be given then it will.
11. Thread Tags. When creating a thread, please remember to choose a tag appropriate to the subject. Generally, using a tag for comedy purposes is acceptable. However, tags that break other rules such as trolling or racist/personal attacks will be deleted and the person putting them in will get a warning at the very least. Tags are NOT anonymous to the mods so be aware we know who put them in.
12. Spoilers. A \"spoiler\" is a statement or piece of information that gives away information about the story of a book or film. An Ambush Spoiler is a spoiler in a thread which does not use our spoiler tag in a thread that has not been marked as having spoilers. There is a certain statute of limitations on what can and cannot be spoilered. Things which are common knowledge (IE: Darth Vader is Luke Skywalker's father, Hamlet dies at the end of the play, etc.) can safely be left unspoilered. Basically if it's over a year old it should be safe.
13. 1337 speak. Please don't do it unless you are making a point or a joke. It's annoying and makes you sound like a total tool. I don't think it's infractionable, but be prepared to be ignored and foed if you talk like a texting 12 year old girl

It totally is, even if it's not a ban-able or infraction-worthy offense.

Also,

10. Do not try and play the rules lawyer. Continually skirting the line between rule-breaking and not is unacceptable. The spirit of the rules is important as well as the letter. Basically, don't be a dick. If a warning needs to be given then it will.

As much as I love that pair, since they didn't come out until the later seasons, it was Venus that I had the most fantasies about. So many nights I actually fantasized about "turning her". :wub:

I'm also a fan of the Jupiter/Mercury fanslash fiction.

To sort of requote what WolfBandit says above, maybe she wants to be the one to set the pace. It could be that she's trying to 'tame' you, or it could also just be that she wants to be the one to set the pace. Maybe she also wants you to tempt her out of her shell. Hell, she's a woman! How am I supposed to know what she's thinking if you don't?

All I figure is, she has some limit in her head that says how far you're supposed to be able to go ('appropriate') at any time. Your task (should you choose to accept it) is to figure out what that limit is, and then dance tantalizingly-close-to-but-not-quite-at that limit often enough (and long enough) without turning her off that she gets frustrated enough to suddenly snarl, reach back and drag you over it. Or so I see it.

Artemis was in that picture? :wtf:

If she wants to set the pace, that's fine.

She did comment that the fact we slept together on the second date wasn't in her plans either. :slywink:

I think once I've come back up here, settled in, she's moved out of her parents place and to the same city as me, things would be MUCH different.

Wish I had screencapped it, but in the last page, I saw a banner for "gk2gk dating". It had this really ditzy looking (badly dyed) blonde, texting on a phone and it said "Rejected: Not Geek material" and I was like... wait what?
