Oh how I love your subtle subliminality PBO!!


It's the look of disdain that moves me. The underlying "Negro, you really need to stop 
embarrassing us, really." It makes me feel extra special inside. Obama is an art form.  
I take the look that he shot Michael Steele after completely playing him as a chastising 
warning to stop making us all look bad. If I ever see him, I will make all efforts to 
deliver a similar look.

Yes our first date was lovely but I'm not quite ready for marriage

I definitely need some feedback on this one!!  

Okay, I get it, doesn't take a whole day to recognize sunshine.  But what about global weather patterns?  Oscillations?  Climate?  If the title wasn't clear enough then allow me to explicitly express my frustrations with people who move WAY TOO FAST.  One date and all of a sudden you're in love??  I don't think that's a good idea for some many reasons...

First, you know absolutely nothing about me, which tells me that much of the infatuation is based solely on physical appearance.  Secondly, there's no way I am feeling you as much as you're feeling me because, well, I don't know you and that means something to me.  Finally, you're just completely and totally turning me off.  Which is a shame because I was partially interested only 20 minutes ago.

I guess there's a fine line between this and the alternative.  To me, complete disinterest is also a total turnoff.  But I do think there is a way to flirtatiously be cautiously interested without making someone feel like you're going to turn into the temp chick from Obsessed.  Experience has taught me that the first date recitation of all the reasons why someone is "really feeling you" tends to equal CLINGY.  Thus, I tend to shy away.

Thoughts?
