I have two easy recipes...poached salmon. Buy salmon filets, put them in a casserole dish, cover with water. Microwave for 20 minutes, then let sit for another ten. I then use a dill sauce I have purchased, but there are a lot of very easy recipes for dill sauce.

My other is chilean sea bass. Soy Vey does a great teriyaki sauce, I marinate for about 20 minutes, then bake. Both recipes are yummy and very elegant looking.

Ok girl....lets hear what you made and how he liked it.

I live vicariously thru others...

I made spinach and feta stuffed chicken breasts... cooked some spinach in olive oil until it wilted then I cut a pocket in the chicken breast. In a bowl I mixed the spinach, feta and a little cream cheese (the mixture actually reminds me of spinach artichoke dip...minus the artichokes...but yea) ...Then, since he's a single guy he didn't really have the kitchen supplies I was thinking he would, so instead of baking them like I had intended, I ended up cooking them on the stovetop with olive oil. I also made sun dried tomato cous cous and I steamed some broccoli. It was sooooo good. While I was cooking it he ran out to get some juice for himself. He also came back with a slice of really, really good dark chocolate cake. We split it in half. The whole dinner was amazingly good...and he really enjoyed it. He especially liked the cous cous. He'd never had that before.

I really do like him, and he's very interesting and nice...but I totally don't understand this... he still hasn't kissed me. Is that weird? Maybe he doesn't like me like I thought he does? or maybe he's shy? I don't know... It's confusing me though. Any thoughts on that?

Unless he's not heterosexual, I am sure he likes you a lot to have you over for dinner like that. Maybe he's shy. Being really goodlooking doesn't always make that impossible ! Maybe he's had some bad experiences. Or maybe he really likes you and doesn't want to blow it. Make sure he can tell you'd welcome it . Or, kiss him goodnight! A quick, light goodnight kiss will definitely put the ball in his court without pushing it.

It's just so weird...I'm used to the guy making a move on the first date usually... so I don't know what to think.

That dinner sounds yummy! Maybe he is just shy, or he wants to take it slow. Are you getting any signals that he wants to take it further?

I think he does...I mean, he acts like it (aside from that kissing thing). He's real nice and considerate...and I was talking about how I want to see Twilight...it comes out right before my birthday. I was telling him how I just loved the books, he said "we'll have to go to it then" ...and one night when we passed a truck pulling a boat, I told him that's the kind of boat we have up at my cabin...and he said something along the lines of him coming up to my cabin next summer. ...But how do I know if he likes me...or if he just likes me as a friend. Haha, i'm so so so terrible at dating. I always have been. It's ridiculous really. I'm like oblivious to everything.

When I met my husband he barely touched me for the first several weeks. I felt as though I finally threw myself at him. Later, I asked him why he was so removed...he said he was afraid that if he moved too fast it would really scare me off, and he knew from the beginning that he wanted this to be serious. He also commented that I sent off some signals that he should move slowly.

We've been married 17 years. The sex is still great! Your guy is saying many of the same things my guy said while we were in the early phases of dating.

Try reaching out and touching him casually. Sit a little closer. If he is interested those are signals. If he isn't, you'll know soon enough.

Enjoy this phase...it has its own wonder and excitement.
