I find myself a bit confused.

Where, exactly, does the line fall between joining a friend for outings and dating? What does one do on a date? And how do you know if you're on one?

It seems I need a woman's advice.

I need a gift. For a special person. One I care for. But I do not want it to send any sort of message that may be awkward.

What do I do?

	If you like her, and you get the whole butterflies in the stomach thing, and you want to kiss her, it's a date. I mean, as long as she feels the same, it's a date. If only one of you feels that, it's the friendzone. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Butterflies? Is that what they're calling it? How do you tell if she does, too? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If "it" is the fluttery feeling in your gut, then yeah. Yeah, that part is harder to tell. Honestly? Telling her, and then asking how she feels is the only way to know for sure. Unless she does it first. Or get someone else to ask. But it's better to ask yourself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I suppose that may be a good term for it. To be honest, I have led wars, fought battles, killed and been killed. I have even held babies. And that is still the most terrifying thing anyone has ever proposed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Welcome to dating women, bro. Or, maybe dating. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Why must it be complicated? In the end, isn't it merely meant for procreation anyway? It should be simple and scientific. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Not really. It's about love. You know, finding your soulmate and all that. You can have a kid with anyone, but finding your perfect match is different. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Isn't the phrase "soulmate" a bit far fetched? That implies there is only one person for everyone. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I don't know about whether there's only one or what, but I do believe that there are certain people that are just destined to be together. But that doesn't mean you can't have something meaningful with someone who's not your match, because that's part of figuring it out. Like, my ex-wife, she wasn't the one, but I did love her and we had a good thing for a while, I think. Does that make sense?

	I cannot believe in destiny. I prefer to think we make our own fates. It makes sense. I just have a difficult time understanding how any of this is possible. (Reply to this) (Parent)
