Only if you let it.

Oh no, it *does* transform it. (It transforms it from "hey, I scored" to 
"hey, I have a new person to talk to".) The QUESTION is how important 
that transformation is. ;-)

   Lol! at that last sentence. Classic.  :)

   Just talk with her, and *arrange* things with her. Picnic, movies, meal 
in, meal out, movies... etc.

    Gofrit! Last chance saloon!!

When I met her 4 months ago, I was really hoping that now at least I'd 
have 2 possible people to hang out with instead of just 1.

Actually, I haven't seen her since that day, and I haven't seen the 
other guy for abotu 3 months either. I really thought meeting back up 
with him was going to allow me to develop a *real* social life at 
last... but no, it's make no difference.

Did you have to use the words "last chance"? :-/

Seriously - it *already* feels like I had my "last chance" a great many 
years ago and that there is essentially no hope now. :'{

When's the last time you phoned or e-mailed him?  Don't expect other 
people to do all the work.

Gads, we've been over this, Andy - you're what, in your *mid 20s*?  You 
haven't even HAD a "great many years".

   Heh - no hope? :) You haven't moved out yet.

    Move out > party > ladies. LOTS of ladies.  ;)

    Seriously, you haven't partied yet, but you're not too old if that was 
what you were thinking, trust me on that. Just mix in, it doesn't matter 
what age you are.

How about "once or twice per week"? Because that's roughly how often 
I've contacted him to arrange to meet up. :-P

More like "nearly 30". It just seems the "best years" of my life are all 
a long way behind me now - and they weren't even that great. Not a happy 
thought...

Er, yeah, RIGHT. Because that last party I went to was LOADED with 
ladies. If by "ladies" you in fact mean "schoolgirls". :-P

*thinks about my dad dancing at my cousin's wedding*

Um, yes. Yes it does...

   Oh mate, I'll swap with you any day of the week with my life as it is 
now. Really Andrew, you should shut your whining and just get 'out there' 
and then invite me to the wedding when you're done. I'll kiss the bride on 
your behalf if you're too shy.  ;)
