... in response to just a thought, posted by Michael B on Jan 5, 2002Completely correct in your assumptions. I am playing this game a new way just staying friends and getting to know this woman in a different way. I am sure she feels the same way but I am tired of feeling like she is the one etc. I am not going down that road again. By the way she is a knock out but we will just see maybe she doesn't really like me in that way we have never really wrote about that stuff. I will meet her in may but in the mean time I am defiantly playing it the way I have been.
I have been thinking about one other approach. Has anyone ever sent a woman a test to like learning about someone's personality, how they learn or how she see things etc. I have a test that tells me some things about a person based on the questions answered. Has anyone ever tried this? See test below I have others that tell me other things.
Directions: Rate each statement as follows:
