This is true. That's why I keep my own dealings with Pat kinda "hush-hush" here. Most of the guys I know off-line either know me fairly well or know Pat fairly well...and it wouldn't exactly do for them to know about all my anxiety over my current dating situation.

In any case, a future reference question: How do I stay out of the friend zone?
Be as "touchey feely" as you can get away with, without her getting upset or wanting to smack you. Touch her hand/arm/shoulder/back/etc. when in conversation. Drop subtle hints that you don't think of her as just a friend. Leave her little messages just saying "Hey" or "Hey, how ya doin'?" Find out what she likes/dislikes. Hell, just talk to her and listen when she does.

By the way....just calling her up when you're bored or have nothing better to do isn't necessarily a good thing.

Does she touch you when in conversation? Does she smile a lot when she's around you? Offer/give hugs every time you meet and every time you leave...and if she really returns them and makes any kind of "good noise" when you're hugging her...that's a good sign! [biiiig grin]
