Q: Met a nice gal a few nights before NYEve in Chicago. I met her at a lounge, talked to her asked to dance... we hit it off. Moreover, we both did not drink anything more than some ginger ale and ice cubes.

The next day she txt messaged me with "I had a great time with you last night, you were a dancing machine" (Flattering)... Moreover, many txt. messages to count after that, we were possibly going to meet up that night, however we did not.

NYEve: we meet up, both kept up to out ginger ale and ice cube regimen, however, we had a great time talking; grew intimate for the rest of the night(maybe somewhere between 2nd base and the shortstop). In the morning (Jan 1st) she has to catch a flight at noon, however, has to go home (parents house) first, 75.00 dollar cab ride. In a nutshell she spent her last few hours in Chica go with me before a flight back to NYCity.

So, now she is in NYCity and I am in Portland, OR. She, wrote a txt. how she had a great time over the past few days, and how it was not a bad way to start 2008. She is a professional (works 12-14 hour days), back to work, and so am I; the only thing is, is that we are 3,000 miles apart. I am not a dummy to believe a cross country relationship would work, but I am so friggin' dumbstruck to think that it might just be possible. I travel to NYCity on the regular (every 6-8 weeks) and plan on moving there in mid 2009. How do I play the Cool Hand Luke move to make her think that something might just work out, out of this? I just don't want to mess this thing up, however, I know that I can and the odds are working much against this .

A: Hi!

You have to get to NYC as soon as possible. You can’t let her forget! Absence is supposed to make the heart grow fonder but too much absence just make the heart forget and move on.

You could even make up a biz trip you have in the city so you don’t seem so quick and desperate!

If her feelings are mutual, you can probably just say you want to see her again and when should you visit. Don’t assume you’re staying with her though. Lean towards getting a hotel so it’s not too presumptuous.

After the first trip is done, you’ll know if it’s worth continuing all the traveling and missing each other.

Please keep me posted on this one! It sounds promising, even with the 3000 miles!
