Architect's response to my request...

to see him soon. I had written him telling him that we should meet soon because I was developing an email crush - that may be for naught if we have no chemistry.

This is his reply:

"You paint a great picture, L. I'd love to meet soon but I am going back to the homestead for the week between this friday and Sept 4. I think we have a conundrum.

We can keep emailing, possibly becoming more and more interested in each other, possibly setting up a high stakes meeting over a week from now. Or we can let the tension that has already built just hang in the air until we know when we will meet.

I've always wanted to go to Montauk. But in rough weather for some reason, maybe during an approaching hurricane. There is something about being on the very edge of safety.

D"

Oh god AND HE LIKES STORMS - fuck fuck fucking fuck.
And the fact that he writes 'edge of safety' instead of 'edge of danger' struck me. You can all see how I can fall into email crush land if I read into little phrases and such. I want to taste this guys lips already - what is wrong with me?


Sooooo, should we keep emailing even if we cannot see each other until after Labor day? (the conundrum he refers to above is that I am going away from the 1st until Labor Day)

or do we stop and simmer?

or do I ask him out for tomorrow?
