Big risk, eh? Well, not exactly. You see, I don't like getting rebuked very much, so I don't usually try kissing or physical contact unless I have a pretty good idea that this is what the woman wants also. Through experience, I have learned to look for telltale signals, such as her longing glances or "accidental" brushing up against me. Thus, women don't simply wait for the guy to kiss her. If she wants to be kissed, she can (and often does) offer strong encouragement to her shy gentleman, and fall far short of jumping him. The man still has to take some risk of rejection, but, hey, c'est la vie! __ "Don't shake the tree when the fruit ain't ripe!" Seth Jackson dec-curium!jackson
