She asked me to go to dinner again last night. I said that I wasn't feeling well. I suggested that we go see a movie before she goes to work today. She said, "How about lunch?" I slipped an answer in there somewhere, I think I said yes LOL. She's been really busy lately with this online real estate broker class. She says, "How about after I catch up on the reading then let's go do something?"

She seems really attentive and stuff. She calls me when I don't reply to her txts. Oh as I am typing this, I told her let's go have dinner after she gets off work tonight instead. I gotta go get a new fridge because the one at home is broken. She's asking me if I know any places around here that stay open really late so people can just sit, eat, and chit-chat for hours. I'm not sure what she means by this. I'll just have to play it by ear, I am not going to get my heart/mind fvcked with again!

I'd like to post some pics of her but I am afraid someone on ATOT might know her then I'll screw up any chances of this situation going into the "profit" zone. I will post pics once I am in the zone and in the clear. I'll keep this updated.

Right as I am hitting "post" on this, she says that she's going to go on a mad-reading frenzy to get ahead then, "if I get enough read, can we go to the movies tonight?"

how old are you guys?

i think you are working your way into the "profit" zone and if you want a relationship out of this, you may have a chance. if it starts to get more serious, though, i would tell her you dont feel comfortable with joe-fvck-stick still in the picture.

oh, and you can post pics with a blocked out face for now. once you are in the "profit" zone, then you can post pics with her face included. everyone wins.

edit: give her an ultamatum, or try to make a move, or something. Give it one shot, if it doesnt work, end communication immediately.

wow...only took two posts and we got the right answer.... congrats ATOT....we have reached a new level

My god, you're being played for SUCH a sucker.

The bf is probably cackling about you being such an incredible tool. You're fulfilling all of her emotional needs without getting anything back. Is she a charity?

We went and saw a movie last night (Just Like Heaven) then had a late dinner. We spent some time talking about this and that. Hmm she kept smiling at me whenever I look at her. I'll wait a few weeks when she is free then I'll take her on a real date, if the waters feel good, I'll make a move, if not I'll be done with her. I'll keep this updated.

You either have to make your move now, or not make one at all. Sounds like you are already in the friend zone a little bit, its prolly not too late though. Take her out of one of your date things, and try to plant a kiss on her, you will know right then and there if your too far into the friend zone to go back or not.
