    Commenting it was lighter though I think! She wont think anything of it but thats a start! Dont mind what your friends will think! Haha :slight_smile: Start talking to her more and more!

    Oh my! I hope you guys will be okay! Stay dry! :slight_smile:

    Aiming for friendship is a less stressful goal. Maybe right now keep it casual.

    Good for you for having the courage to comment! That was brave and I know that took a lot out of you! If you want her to come over though, you need to be more clear and direct that she can come over to your place. It would be rude for her to assume or ask if she could stay with you since you aren't close friends. So you need to do the asking. If you are too nervous though, you're too nervous. Maybe right now you need to work on the anxiety and take good care of yourself.

    Even if she's closeted, it could take time for her recognize and accept it. So take things one step at a time.

    Stay safe!! I have family that moved to Puerto Rico a few years ago and this seems to be the first storm that has them legitimately scared so that tells me this one will be pretty major.

    Also, I am very proud of your bravery for sending the message!

    Thanks everyone! Kinda scared about the storm. Its probably best she isn't around because I'm gonna need to self medicate LOL but I'm glad I stepped up and at least commented, even if it was like a half-assed attempt

    :grin:

    You could have self medicated with her, I am sure she could be very distracting to you.

    I think everyone in the later than life crew brings a little something different to the party so I can hand a little bit of it to each of you haha and together you will be all over it.

    Good, because I lack the internal beat necessary do any dance more complicated than the sprinkler or the shopping cart. Although, I did once win the dance competition at my sorority formal with those slick moves...

    Give me the laid back beer garden over the dance party bar any day. You can still make-out with people there right?
