You can see the ocean. You can hear the waves and the gulls. But it smells like an alley. Very strange. I always laugh when east coasters say, "You guys have Vegas...we have Atlantic City..."

Given the current uncertainty in the financial markets, I think I would stay put.

To be honest, if I remember correctly you are a little older. Your window maybe closing quickly so you may want to jump on any opportunities you get and take a chance.

This is very straight forward. If you want to go, then go. If you don't want to go state emphatically that you don't want to go and stop having a dialogue about it. Since you are asking honest opinions, and I have not read any other response as I type this, you are creating drama where none need exist. At some level, my guess is that you are enjoying having this drama swirling around as people rarely do things that don't reward them in some way. This is purely a matter of what you want to do. No one can tell you what you want to do. This is about what you are doing, not about what this guy is doing.

Instead of a week, do a 3 day compromise and in the mean time spend more time getting to him via phone calls and what not.....and that still gives you enough time to bail if you get cold feet or find out that he's just not for you.
And just remember BDB,,,and I know we've laughed via boardmails about this before concerning dating in the LDS World..if it isn't a good time, it's a good story.

I'm not a man, so you didn't ask my opinion, but when did that ever stop me from giving it?
If he wants you to come out so badly, he should be offering to pay for your ticket. If you want to see him again, but don't feel comfortable going out there (and no, that's not weird) tell him so and invite him to come and see you. If he is not cool with either of those scenarios, then he's a big dork and I'd move on.

Out of faith that BYU will play in a BCS bowl, you should plan now to take this trip during the Las Vegas Bowl. Think of the fun and bonding that could take place as you and a potential spouse watch the televised Poinsetta and New Mexico Bowls too.

I guess that's the advantage in life of having kids--it puts a lot of things in perspective. |
