Dating Confessions by You "The phrase 'just friends' drives me nuts because to me, friendship feels like a deeper connection than a romantic relationship usually does."
What's the best way to seduce a painter?
Don't act freakishly interested in my art and over-compliment it to get in my pants. That would just make me feel really uncomfortable. Acting a little uninterested would probably intrigue me, and I might work for your attention.
What tends to guarantee a good old-fashioned romp in the hay?
Being gorgeous and cool. This guy I really like is a voracious reader and I'm not. How can I bridge the gap?
If you are willing to work for the guy, make the effort to find what seems to be a good book. Then read it, to the best of your ability, and give the book to him and insist he would love it and that he must read it.
This guy I'm dating wants us to watch porn when we fool around. I'm uneasy about it, but also intrigued. Should I go for it?
Hell, yeah! But start off easy. Watch something that's not too raunchy. You don't want to scare yourself off with a bad introduction to porn. What a shame that would be!
My boss and I have a pretty intense attraction. I have this storage-closet fantasy. Should I go for it? I could lose my job if I'm misreading his signals. I'd have to say no to that. Unless you think the guy is worth losing your job over, which maybe he is. If not, I would picture him pooping or doing something gross to cool that sexual tension.

I have a crush on the local bartender. How do I approach her?
Well, approaching her at the bar while she's working would be horrendous. She'd probably just lump you in with the other drunks who hit on her on a nightly basis. Find another way.
