I feel the more people seem to reject a particular notion, the more curious I get as to why.

I think that there may be no hard and fast rule...

I understand what lotsofmagnets is saying.

There is such a thing as calling too soon. But it all depends on who that is. Please tell me I'm not the only person who has fancied someone and then thought...should I call him now? Maybe he'll think I'm too eager...or needy, banish the thought! So I'll wait...a little.

I think if two people are on the same wavelength it's fine, they will respond well to how you react, because they feel the same towards you. So it's never too soon. How about too late? Is there such a thing as too late?

Sometimes also, you go ahead and call someone anyway, and it backfires on you. I think there is such a thing as too much, too soon... but generally I ignore that and go with my gut. I mean if I like someone, and they don't like me the same, might as well find out sooner than later. Right?

Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.


Fernando Pessoa, 1918
