    What’s the dilemma? You have made clear you do not believe in the possibility of changing your approach, and it fits in with how in your view relationships should happen (a love at first sight kind of experience). Even though you’re aware it’s unlikely to work, you are determined to hold on to this view.

    So what’s the dilemma? You know what you want, you know it’s not likely to happen, you don’t believe in change, so there you go. Good luck with that.

    I hope it happens for you.

    PS: I don’t agree with you that you can’t “rewire” your emotions or the way you express them. But what I believe isn’t actually important here.

    Hi Paul,

    Yeah, I agree with Will.

    I love the title of the book Three Cups of Tea. The premise for the title is: In that part of the world you don’t ask anything from anyone without having “three cups of tea”. That means three social visits that might take all afternoon. No pressure. No diving right in. Just hanging out, enjoying each other’s company.

    As a girl AND an introvert, it is a real turn off for me personally when someone is all touchy-feely. One caveat: if I have already decided I really am fond of somebody, that is the one exception!

    I would say: A hug in greeting. A hug when leaving. And a touch on the upper arm.

    Proceed three cups of tea style from there.
