writes:I have a crush on a chap who has a travel agency, who my friend introduced to me at one party, but I left shortly after and even travelled somewhere else...now I am back and live in that new place...would it be OK to send his a business e-mail about upcoming trips as I am seriously interested in going, given that I haven't got many friends here. Trouble is, he organises trips for groups and my inquiry might sound stupid since I am only one and the people I know are either locals or stingy/hard-up expats who are not willing to pay to travel around...I'd like to strike up a connection through asking him about trips without seeming too keen getting to know him or anything...About 5 years ago, I was in a concert with the same people and he came up to me and said : " DOn't I know you from somewhere?" , but I was an ass and replied curtly as I was interested in someone else at the time...Please, do you think this is a good way to get in touch by e-mail from a distance, no pressure, then if I end up going on trip or maybe more so be it! thanks for any tips x3

reader, anonymous, writes (28 February 2014): I completely understand your dilemma, I'm experiencing something similar. As such as I agree with the other post, by living in the here and now, I think the initial email would prompt him, to put you in his present thoughts and depending on whether he is single/available you can then take it from there. I personally don't think that an email will do any harm as it's his line of business to make contact with people. Your email could be done in a way that you are naive and don't know how to approach contacting him about current travel arrangements as it has been so long since you were last in touch. Men love to help a damsel in distress, if he doesn't know he could always signpost you. This was way you see if you could rekindle something, if not he would had seen it as a business opportunity, either way you have nothing to lose. Good luck

Tula is verified as being by the original poster of the questionThanks sageoldguy 1465 for the advice, I couldn't agree more, why should I chase a guy first and appeare like a dead moose on his doorstep. I know men love the chase and are the ones who light the sparks, however, dunno what you think if you knew that that oooodles of more guys where I live here do not speak any English and this chap is of English origin, besides that he and I share love for of design and painting as well as belonging to the same religious and ethnic group...all these factors made me think twice about making the first move..I find it worth trying, in fact, I think it's tempting and blimey I'm so pessimistic so what are my chances of finding a chap like him in these desolate lands!? Thanks again, appreciate your views 3

 Do you REALLY think that you should chase around a guy who you THINK (but aren't sure) is interested in you???? There are OOODLES more guys in this world who aren't so distant and/or evasive that you have to do this much work to learn about them.....
Good luck...
