I think I have had a dating break through. It's probably a "no duh" for most of you out there, but for me, it has only recently struck.

Ok, here is how I used to think of things. Whenever a girl showed interest in me (always sitting next to me, sitting very close to me, seeking me out to spend time with me) I would assume she wanted to be friends. I would think, "Hey, I've got this new friend. If I spend enough time with her, maybe one day we can start dating." Needless to say, this got me a lot of friends, but not a lot of dates.
So (and this is where I need input) I've started thinking, maybe when they first start showing signs of interest in me... maybe that is when I should try for the date option. Instead of waiting 2 or 3 years and then asking them out when we are fully intrenched in friendhood.

Am I on the right track here?
