&#039;Passing the friendship stage into the making out stage is rather difficult - especially if you both are shy.&#039; *smiles*

		<description>i was kind of wondering while reading this... but you kind of answer the question in your blog...

i was wondering what are the different levels exactly and how to differentiate them?

and how do you know when to move up on the scale so to speak? i mean the probably answer to that is probably something like &quot;when it feels right&quot; .... also how do you know when you&#039;ve moved up to the next level?</description>

		<description>i have to have the DTR. i don&#039;t care who brings it up, but i must know. so what, i am comfortable with rules and boundaries. i&#039;m anal-retentive. and i like knowing what&#039;s expected of me.

besides, it makes it easier to introduce the other person. you look like a tool saying, &quot;this is my friend...&quot; -- after a while, it gets old. so people should have the talk already. 

as far as timing is concerned...i guess when you really start to develop feelings for the other person. if i can tell that i&#039;m to the point where i would get hurt if i found out he was dating someone else on the side, it&#039;s time to cue the DTR.

it&#039;s easy for guys and their timing. chances are, if you&#039;ve been on 3 dates with her, she wanted to be your Official Girlfriend yesterday. so guys are pretty much golden when they bring this up.</description>

		<description>Too funny.  I&#039;ve had two DTR convos and in all other situations it was just understood.  To prove your point though the two DTR convos I had were basically my soon-to-be boyfriends saying &quot;do you want to be my girlfriend?&quot; and me saying &quot;yeah&quot; and then lots of making out followed.  You and you&#039;re friends aren&#039;t alone in your thoughts!</description>

		<description>Oh I&#039;m a big fan of the DTR, and out of four major relationships, I have been the initiator in three.  I need to know my boundaries, and know what he thinks his boundaries are... but only if I actually give a crap about it becoming a real relationship.  Otherwise, it&#039;s just every man for himself chaos... er something.

PS - I think your second paragraph was some kind of historic grammatical event.</description>
