Well, I'm a guy, but I know a guy who is now married to the woman he first dated after such an "almost-cold" contact. But in retrospect, there is evidence that the woman influenced the 3rd party slightly (the 3rd party who encouraged my friend to ask the woman out, the 3rd party was a mutual family friend). Any guesses whether maybe the Aunt was acting on a subtle (or not so subtle) suggestion from the woman? -- "Erik Reuter" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.erikreuter.net/ _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
