Thanks everyone.

Some are telling me that he will never make me go weak in the knees if he didn't already. Some are telling me to give it time. I think I'm going to go with the second option, especially because of what you said, Nucking. I can definitely see myself changing gears totally if I saw true passion in him. In fact, I'm not one to jump straight into swooning anyway.

FZ, I have a track record of pretty good gut reactions, that I don't listen to. I knew from the beginning that my last relationship was not going to work, and I totally ignored my gut and was with this guy for 2 1/2 years. But the things that didn't work about that relationship (guy was not at all ambitious, we were on different wavelengths with what we wanted out of life) are not true in this case. But this guy is much nerdier, more straight-laced than I am, so we are on different wavelengths in a sense, but I'm not sure our differences are a bad thing.

The rush is, I am moving to grad school in a year and a couple of months and I guess.. I don't know, maybe I'm looking for love before I go, possibly something meaningful, maybe even if all goes well we could move together, or he (whoever it is) could move later on? Grad school is a big commitment and I guess a part of me is afraid I won't find true love, ever, and I'll be stuck in this school and working too hard and all the sudden I'll be 30. So a part of me is hoping to find something good before I go. These are pipe dreams and thinking far in advance, but I think it's a part of my rush.
