This kissing situation is truly pathetic, and I don\'t know how I\'ve gotten myself into this but I\'d like to get out, and I would like your advice.
I met an awesome girl who I really, really like several months ago, and to cut a long (though very romantic) story short, we ended up going on our first date a few weeks ago. On that date, we didn\'t kiss or hold hands or anything. All I did was kiss her on the cheek and we hugged.
Since then (this is where the patheticness comes in), we have seen each other almost continuously: she invites me to her apartment almost every night and we cuddle up (yes, cuddle, on her couch) and watch her favourite movies together; or else we\'ll go hiking, or play tennis, whatever.
I haven\'t kissed her except on the cheek, and I haven\'t held her hand. Recently I reached a major milestone in this story by gathering up the courage to put my arm around her during a movie at her place and we stayed that way for the whole evening. When it comes to kissing her though, it\'s like there is this invisible $%#@ing force field preventing me from doing it!
A couple of questions:
1. What do I do!? I keep waiting for a \"moment\" and just can\'t seem to find one. Should I just randomly pick any time and go for it?
2. My friends are scaring me by saying that by spending this much time with her without making a major move, I\'m dangerously close to dropping into the \"friend zone\", from whence no man has ever returned alive. Do you agree?
