Hugging or taking a woman’s hand is a demonstrative sign of interest. ;-)
Yeah I was taking her hand a lot. She was very opening to it.
Don’t let it get you down. The unexpected has happened and will continue to occur when you walk with Him. :)
Yeah well this is not really about my walk with Him as such it is a professional situation!

Suggestion number two... don't let this get out of control and become like shopping for a car, kicking her tires. When you were a kid how did you make friends... seeing if they passed a test? A very wise woman once told me not to over-think anything in life but let it flow of it's own accord. Wanting something isn't going to make it happen. That's a different gospel. lol

That’s a nice beginning. When will you see her again?

Yeah well this is not really about my walk with Him as such it is a professional situation!

I will pray for the Lord’s protection and favor on your behalf. And that you’ll walk in His counsel and wisdom as you navigate the challenges you face.

Pray Psalm 112. :)

I've never really been on a date, I always thought that EVEN if you're good at it, the idea of a date is still so cringe man...

I just always seemed to fall randomly into these "daisy peppered meadow" romances that skipped straight past the formal dates straight into the soul searching walk through the kaleidoscope of dancing dandelion seeds and dashing butterflies.

Both of you in those situations are chasing the dopamine rush. You're an addiction to each other more than anything else. Sounds romantic, it really isn't. There's not a lot of talking involved. It's just another body to return the touch.

(By the way, I'm just mocking my old self. I'm not being serious with dandelion seed bit - I don't really talk like that. Well, no, I used to when I was 19 or so.)

I think dating is nice. You have an opportunity to see how he operates and gauge your feelings in turn. New beginnings are supposed to be sweet if they aren’t drama filled and should be enjoyed. The right connection makes them profoundly better and unforgettable.

were you asking us what we would say or don't say on a date?

what did you say to women before you came to the LORD? the only thing that changes are the motivations and goals. salvations won't enhance or diminish your ability to talk to women outside of the end goals.

seems like things went well for you. go on more dates. this is all part of the vetting process.
