writes:Hi, I've been chatting with this girl I'm going to meet Fresher's Week and started a little flirting. Then I wrote a piece of music for her (you must have seen the question).In my last email to her I asked how old she was (we both like the same music and not many young people like what we do and I'm sure she must be 18/19 years old same as me) It was probably rude of me to do so. We were getting along well even to the point where I was seriously considering asking her out for dinner when we meet. She thinks all the things I've said and so forth are really sweet. I haven't had a reply from her last email for two days, and I am getting a bit worried that I've put her off. I think though I am getting too emotional about it, especially as - we've been talking by facebook, and I can see no evidence she's been online, and more importantly I forget that not everyone replies to their emails right away, and I also forget that not everyone likes to go on the internet every day. And there has been a longer period than this before I have not heard from her.We've only been talking a couple of weeks, but already I really like her A LOT. I'm worried that I'm becoming too attached for my own good, and also worried that emotion is clouding my objectivity and judgement.Help would be appreciated.

 slow downnn! meeting someone you are really attracted to doesn't happen too often, so sometimes it is easy to get carried away.
it took one of my guys 2 months to write me a song on his guitar!
remember, you don't know a lot about this girl and she doesn't know a lot about you! it isn't rude to ask how old someone is, in my opinion, especially if the person is young. later on in life you might want to rethink it, but for now i think it's a safe question.
as for 2 days without a response, you never know what's going on in her life. maybe her laptop crashed, her internet died, or worse her grandma [knock on wood]. maybe the email didn't reach her.
don't resend it!! wait a week or so and then send another. if that one doesn't get a response, let her be.
good luck!
