Do I?
Do you?
Do we want to be?
Should we?
Could we?
Daddy, please tell me.

I had just at that time begun to make an effort to pursue a young lady. I sat down and did some thinking. I realised that these were some questions and also probably the order in which they needed to be answered.
At the time of the entry, I was still undecided about whether or not I wanted to get into a relationship. So I chose to spend some time with her, to get to know her more. I especially wanted to see her in different contexts. The amazing this was that I really liked what and who I saw. Thus, the first question was answered. Yes.
We went out for a couple of breakfasts where the conversations were fantastic. We had some long phone chats which were glorious. All these ( with consultation from Mr. AA to ensure that I wasn't imagining things) led me to conclude that the answer to the second question was ...Yes.
Boy was I wrong. We didn't communicate at all from new year on. I was getting a bit concerned. I called. During this conversation, I heard these scary words. "JoGi, I don't see us as more than platonic friends..." I am glad I was seated. I now knew that the answer to the second question was ... No.
The rest of the questions are redundant.
Since then , this young lady and I have chatted and talked things over. My little fantasy bubble had been lovingly burst and I still have someone I can call friend (there is some disappointment in the voice here!). Things are a little awkward but healing comes in the morning.
Life goes on.
