Ok.  Because I like you a lot, and I'd hate to think I'd 
just screwed things between us up.


PS: Yes, I know that "I like you a lot" is pretty
ambiguous.  I used it because I wanted to let you know that
I'm interested in you in a romantic sense, without 
presuming too much on our rather brief acquaintance, and 
while leaving enough leeway that I could easily step back 
to the friendship angle, should you not be interested.


PPS:  Wow.  I'm not usually this open.  I'm beginning to 
wonder if my roommate slipped something into my Nestea 
while I wasn't looking.  ;)

Well, even though we've only known each other for TEN FREAKIN' DAYS (emphasis mine), I don't want to risk our friendship.
