I enjoyed this. I was raised in a strict religious home (and a long time ago) and wasn't even allowed to call boys on the phone. I have never, seriously, never asked a man out, or even asked one to dance. If I was interested, I'd kind of do a combination of seed planting and flirting and let them figure it out. I think your advice is great, I'm just too chicken to take most of it, LOL . Thank goodness I'm happily married.
