I know he's about twice my age, but I don't care cause we get along so well. Below's my attempt at a quick update on what happened when we met for lunch when I came home for Christmas:We met for coffee. I got there first and waited for him. When he arrived I waved and smiled at him and he kinda nodded and didn't do anything else. I went up next to him to wait in line. We talked but he was acting kinda strange, like he was trying to ignore me. I mean he was friendly, but not as friendly as he normally is.When we got our coffee we sat down and talked. We were only going to get together for about half an hour as he had other things he had to do but we ended up talking for over two hours! At different points of the conversation we leaned forward; we kept constant eye contact during our talk. One time (he was leaning forward with his arms on the table) he finished talking and we just sat there looking in each other's eyes, not saying a word. It lasted a good 15-20 seconds; I've never had anything happen to me like that before. I don't think I did but he never blinked during that time; he kept looking into my eyes. I don't think his pupils dilated (I've read that's a sign that a guy likes you; honestly I was trying to figure out what color his eyes were...kind of a bluish-grey - is that auburn? Okay, off topic) but he had really warm eyes and sort of had a little grin on his face like he really liked being with me.We talked and laughed. I wanted to touch his arm but was too shy to do so. Afterwards, when he was taking me home, we were talking about his house and where it's located. He then ended our get-together by mentioning the next time I'm in town we can meet at his house (!!)Sorry this is so long. Here's my question: has his flirting increased during this meeting? We hadn't seen each otehr in about three months. Before, he would always look me in the eyes (not staring like what happened before) and would sometimes blush when talking to me and look at me when I'm not looking then turn away when I'd look at him. Please answer!! Thanks for your time.

good luck!!!
