So we're having a great time playing Left for Dead, then we start to make dinner.  Wow, I knew he had it in him =)  I think I mentioned that he's a culinary school graduate.  (still in school though to further in nutrition).  I may have not mentioned though that he's pretty submissive in relationships and in general.  He does stand up for himself,

I want to base even our friendship on things that matter to me. My first "relationship" with a guy was in 6th grade, lasted 2 years, was purely looks, second (my 10 year one) was based on looks and he was such a nice and honest guy. This time, I want the looks, the nice guy plus the foundation of that great friendship. The day I ask him (nothing wrong with "believing" in
