No Crossing!

Finally...You've finally done it. Your charm has done its job, and that girl you've been chasing for months FINALLY caves and decides to find out just what you're made of...

You give her the infamous "let's watch a movie" code, and she accepts...You know you're in...

Your heart races as she walks though your front door...Is this really about to happen? Am I on Punked? Surely Ashton's got a rope tied around this girl's waist and he's gonna yank her outta' here any second so everyone can laugh at my misfortune...

...You check her waist for an actual rope, one isn't there...You get even more excited.

You make light conversation and pop on the movie. You realize that this girl/guy is more than just a pretty face and you might actually have things to talk about...You're even more excited about their company.

The movie proceeds and you try to decide how long you're going to wait before you make your move. If you jump the gun, you make it look like that's the only reason you invited them over (even though it kinda was)...If you wait too long, you've wasted valuable action time and you end up watching an entire movie and looking like a pansy...

The time seems right, your heart is pounding, and you go for it...You lift her chin slightly and she reciprocates, giving you that first awesome kiss. YES!!

It also turns out she might have just screamed "YES!!" in her head too!...Now things are getting exciting. Not only do you have the ability to exchange endless witty banter via text, you've also got bomb.com physical chemistry....You're in trouble.

This is awesome. Why haven't we been watching movies for MONTHS?! Your excitement level starts to become uncontrollable...Then it happens...

In the heat of the moment, you get over zealous and cross the line...

*SCREEEEEEECH!*

The passion stops instantly and she slams on the breaks harder than Sam Kinison.....

You may have just blown it....Nice job.

Each guy/girl is different here, some get wicked awkward and storm out, others just tell you to take it easy for a minute...In either situation, you look like a total jackass.

If she likes you enough to come over once, chances are, she'll like you enough to come over AGAIN! There will be other nights, so stop living like you're dying...Take it slow and be a gentleman. She'll be back for more...

Slow and steady wins the race.

P.S. She/He, Him/Her, Guy/Girl can be used interchangeably here. Girls can totally take it too far sometimes too! Keep it classy, he'll respect you...
