I have 92 champs from the 110 (including Thresh), and I still refuse to play jungle.

I have everyone but Nami and I refuse to AD Carry in ranked games, just cause I know it's my weak point.

I love jungling with Shen, Malphite, Alistar, Amumu, Rammus, Gangplank. Anything outside of that, and I feel off.

I mainly support though. Got hundreds of games as Sona and I've been enjoying Zyra and Taric recently.

So some of you may remember my little mini-rant a while back about a girl I like, and about discussing feelings and such.

Well, I told her how I felt, and she's ok with it, and we're still really good friends, but I want some advice from some of you guys, because I've run into another llittle issue here.

We talked about a lot of stuff, her past and mine, our feelings toward each other, stuff like that. She tells me that for right now, she's just viewing me as a friend, and I'm okay with that, she's been through a rough childhood, and learned to be very reserved and closed up with her feelings, so I understand that its gonna take a bit for her to get to that point.

But here's the issue, it seems to me like she's past that point of viewing me as just a friend, judging from the way she is around me. And it's not just me that thinks this way. She's been around my parents, and they thought we were a couple, and I've had other, older friends of mine tell me that she treats me more like a boyfriend than "just a friend".

Now, we do lots of stuff together, we're taking dance lessons, we talk/text pretty much every day, we've gone on plenty of "dates" that aren't technically dates. I've been good about it so far, I haven't been super pushy about the topic, I've been mostly waiting for her to be comfortable enough to aknowledge the situation on her own, and I'm pretty sure that I'm doing the right thing, but I'm not 100% sure I am.

So, I guess that my question, should I keep quiet and let her get there mostly on her own, or should I be pushing it more than I currently am?

And, should I tell her that I Love her? We've been friends for a while, and I've been at the "I like you/am interested in you as more than a friend" stage for a while, and she knows that, but she hasn't told me that she's there yet, and I wanted to wait until she gets comfortable with that before I tell her that I love her. (And for those of you saying "don't tell her you love her unless you mean it", I do mean it. I've "liked" a few girls before, and I was pretty close to one, and I thought that was love, but none of that was anything even close to what I feel with this girl, I can't even describe it. So yeah, I mean it.)

Sorry for my rambling thoughts, I'm just unsure of myself, and if I'm doing the right thing, and thanks in advance to anyone who has some advice for me.

Just a few quick thoughts to share with you:

- I would highly recommend staying away from saying "I love you" until you both decide to take your relationship to the next step. The "L" word can scare the hell out of someone who is not ready to hear it.

- That having been said, you do need to have a heart-to-heart talk with the girl and get her thoughts about what she sees as the next step in your relationship.

- The last thing that you want is to be "friend-zoned" in her mind while you have expectations that matters will progress along the romantic lines. It's best to define as soon as possible where you both stand and communicate the same to each other.

- If she's not ready for a next step, she also shouldn't keep you hanging or send mixed messages. Be honest with her and ask her to be honest with you. I don't see this as being pushy but rather as respecting her feelings (and your own) by ensuring that you are both on the same page.

And that is all I have to say about that.

What Charles said.

If they're a responsible person down on their luck, I'd help out. If they're MY family, not a chance.

This sounds like a long and painful process. My heart goes out to you.

This sounds like a dominatrix ad.

Here's what I'm hearing. You are basically dating, but you want one of two things. 1) A label to put on the relationship. IE boyfriend/girlfriend. or 2) Physical intimacy.

If it's #1, why do you need a label to slap on it? If you're both happy with the interactions you have, the label is unnecessary.

If it's #2 *snicker*, well then you've got a decision to make. Do you broach that subject or let it ride and see where it goes? Judging by our last conversation, I'd say the two of you have only been "open" for a month, maybe two. I'd say it's too soon to be pushing for something physical. It will likely not end well.

That's just my two cents. Take from it what you will.

Really? Really?? I laughed at your first sentence, and then you didn't place the appropriate emoticon in there, and now I feel like crap for thinking that it took over 2 years for zyxba's grandmother to die.

My apologies for the misuse of emoticons. There is no way to make a joke like that without coming across like a jerk.

True, even though the joke is about the misuse of grammar, the topic is unfortunate.

You forgot to type the above statement in TEAL, Monkey Man. You really are a heartless primate, aren't you????

Doh! Internet fail. Al Gore would be so disappointed.

Figures that Al Gore is one of your evil ape overlords...

Well, it's pretty accurate. She was likely to die at any time of the two years. She died with no warning on our couch, while my mom went to grab a pack of playing cards from the other room.

I was 5 when we lost her, some of my earliest memories are of her, and that night.

Stan and Charles have good wisdom from their middle agedness.

Blah blah blah balh blha bhla abhl .....
