I've been on a couple of dates and they were OK - no sparks - but recently have met my upstairs neighbor and we really have been hitting it off. We run together in the mornings and we have a date set up (dinner and a baseball game) on Saturday - She's younger probably 10 years, but we have the same interest, the same humor etc.
I hate games and want to see her, but also want to give her space (especially since I am 8 feet below her at all times) - How do I do both?
Wow, you don't waste time do you!!!:yh_rotfl
Enjoy your date, and if it all goes well on the night, then ask her that question.
Good Luck!:-6

Show her your post. If you truly hate games you will only last long-term with another "non-gamer." Just don't get all mushy and tell her you love her or anything stupid like that. :-4 :-4

i would tread quite carefully since the proximity is so close...what if it did not work or you wanted to bring someone else home? could end up being a real bunny-boiler.

Go enjoy the Baseball game! You may grow to love it. Baseball fans tend to have a lot more computing cycles in their brain than Football, Hockey, Basketball fans - so this is a good sign. (Well, errr... unless you are looking for someone who is not sharp.)

Go for it.. why wait.. life is to damn short so ask her if she wants to grab a bite to eat.. maybe check out a movie.. worse that she can say is that she is busy or something.. but I bet she will be happy to go out..

Hey you don't get to know a person, or get the "feel" of them if you dont' spend time together. If it feels right to get together for a casual outing then do it. Something simple like a stroll, or a bite is a lot less pressure than a formal date. It will give you some indication too as to what she may want. If that fails then state your preference.
