All “no” means is let’s try things differently this time. I’m tired of running around with my hair on fire. Let’s meet in the middle. You call or text me, fully identify yourself, suggest a lunch date, or you picking me up to go grab a milkshake and just talk.  I will jump in your whip, buy the largest milk chocolate smoothies, work on building comfort as we chat, reintroduce you to the parents, fill your tank and blow you a heartfelt kiss as you leave the driveway.
