How is it for you to be doing this waiting for him, trying to 'bump into' him again?
What sort of feeling does it give you?

If I were doing something that I don't normally do in hopes of bumping into him again, I would feel worse. (After all, I bumped into him at our second meeting at the very same place where I had been going sometimes anyway.) However, I think I glean from your questions that you want me to weigh this state of wonder versus actually doing something bolder, right? At this point, though, whether right or wrong, I am actually feeling that if he really was interested from the get-go that he would have been trying to see me again around the same place at around the same time. Maybe he has, but I think we would have connected by now, since it has been so long already. The length of time also reinforces my doubt, which doesn't encourage me to do anything bold. Admittedly, I am full of insecurity.

Actually, I was just wondering what sort of feeling it gave you... so it reinforces doubt? And leaves you full of insecurity?

How is this for you? Is it comfortable or uncomfortable? Welcome or unwelcome?
Or perhaps it is a little of both?

How is it for you to have this still on your mind?

Yes, the fact that even more time has passed without contact reinforces doubt and my insecurity about the situation. It is uncomfortable and unwelcome to have this still on my mind, but quite honestly, I thought some answers would have been provided by now - either through another meeting or a telephone call. Although I am not a pessimist, I am sheerly going on the length of time as an indicator here.

The doctor should really make the first move towards you..

I agree that at this point the doctor should really make the first move. Are you saying that because you question his availability or interest at this point?

What does your post have to do with mine?

By the way, I don't know anything about Twitter, but I don't want the reply you just added to be attached to this thread on Twitter. Can you just delete your post from this?

I just referred an acquaintance of mine to this doctor, and she will probably call him. Anyway, as our first contact since the meeting in my post, I emailed him with a simple greeting, hoping that he was doing well, etc., and then the next paragraph detailed my acquaintance's recent medical issues. My closing was a whimsical reference to his semi-diagnosis during our conversation, and that was it. Nothing forward or flirtatious at all; however, I did venture to make contact, which was big for me, if you have read my earlier posts.

Yes, he responded after two days and graciously thanked me for the referral and encouraged her to call him before she made any decisions. His P.S. was a recommendation to have my spine checked, which addressed my whimsical closing in my message, and then he put a winking emoticon next to it.

So now there are two benign pieces of communication after about six weeks of no contact. I guess I didn't need anything more benign in this mix, but I am sure you responders will tell me that I asked for this in my rather "professional only" message. He responded in kind. Hm-m...

I responded to his message detailed above and gave him some more info on his prospective patient. I told him his P.S. made me smile, and that I would think about the option of getting my spine checked out. I signed off with another whimsical saying, and he responded by saying that he didn't see me at the beach that day (no, we didn't make arrangements to meet there, nor was any reference made earlier in our messages), but he was obviously looking for me. He also mentioned that I am entitled to a free 30-minute massage if a patient I refer makes/keeps an appointment with him. He teased and said I must be smiling now with wink emoticons - the works. I wrote back and teased by asking who would be doing the massage in his office and pondered whether it would be a burly sumo wrestler, and I attached a picture of the biggest one I could find. My caption under the picture made reference to my really needing a chiropractor after that "reward". I have not yet heard back from him. What I am wondering through this continuing saga,( albeit with more information now than about six weeks of nothing) is how long should this mere email communication continue before he should step up to the plate and ask me out? Is he just establishing a comfort level first? A male friend thinks that he would have asked me out already this week after the first email or two from me. I disagree..., but I could be wrong.
