Search Results: caught in between

We've known each other for maybe 6 months or so. Before the company closed, we'd text here and there and whatnot. Then a couple of days before the company closed, her boyfriend quit (he worked with us) and she got more active with texting me. Literally, she would start the conversations with work-related stuff and then it would get to actual conversations like about her dogs or other things. Not sure if she was texting me cause she was bored or? But, there was no dry texting between us. I'd make her laugh and what have you (I would look over to her office while texting her funny stuff or teasing her to see her reaction). 2 days after the company shut down, she added me on Facebook. I have her dad added (he worked with us also). Her dad and I are actually cool with each other. We talk here and there. But, never thought she would add me on Facebook. That caught me off guard. I cont post much on there. But, she'll look at my Facebook stories. Been 3 days since we last talked. Thought about texting her and asking if she got abducted by aliens. Obviously, I like her but haven't made a move or anything because she has a boyfriend.

Hi!

From our first date she mentioned she saw us as friends but it could develop for more.

So during our second date, I wasn't as much handsy/break touchbarrier, and neither were she. But I did caught her starring for some time.

Towards the end of the second date we sat on a bench, a little space between us, but not too close.. So I tried the kiss-test, I think she saw it but didn't respond to it, or maybe she were caught up in her speech, so I didn't want to take the chance.

Then when we were about say farewell, she was fast on just going for a hug and had her head already looking away, so I went for a fast kiss/peck on her neck, coz I don't want to be just friends. Her reaction was kinda indifferent, but she closed the door I saw her throw herself on the phone , guess she chat with a girlfriend or something.

Do you guys think I did the right thing to show her I don't just be friends with her. The peck itself was very fast and "innocent", but I wanted to plant a seed.

Or did I Screw up?

GOP Candidates Must Have 40,000 Donors And Poll At 1% To Make First Debate Stage

Republican presidential candidates hoping to participate in the season’s first primary debate on Aug. 23 will need to prove that they have 40,000 individual donors, with at least 200 from 20 different states or territories, while also polling at least at 1% and promising to support the party’s eventual nominee.
The Republican National Committee on Friday announced the criteria for the Milwaukee event, formalizing the rules that candidates and others have known were coming together for weeks.

“The RNC is committed to putting on a fair, neutral, and transparent primary process and the qualifying criteria set forth will put our party and eventual nominee in the best position to take back the White House come November 2024,” Ronna McDaniel, the committee chair, said in a statement.
The GOP will stage a second debate on Aug. 24 if there are too many qualifying candidates to appear on a single stage, although the party would not say what the limit would be. Nor would it specify on what basis the candidates would be split between the two nights.
Republicans had 17 candidates run in 2016 and early on held two debates, one after the other, with the event for lower-polling candidates earning the “kids table” designation.

The requirement for a significant number of small donors reflects the work that the party must to do to catch up with Democrats, with many GOP candidates substantially outraised by their opponents in key 2022 midterm races. But the threshold could prove a hurdle for lesser-known candidates, especially those who get in late.
