<em>So far, so good</em>, he thought to himself.  He was quite happy with her responses so far.  He nodded as she answered.<br/><br/>"I know what you mean." He said while watching her drink from her wine glass. "You are, if I may be so bold, something special.  I don't even know how to explain it.  You are, of course, absolutely beautiful.  I'm sure you've heard that plenty of times, though.  You already seem like a really nice girl."<br/><br/>He paused for a moment, unsure whether or not he should keep talking or shut up.  The last thing he wanted to do was sound like a drooling pervert or a gawking idiot.   But he had to take the chance, he had to let her know he already knew she wasn't just another pretty girl.<br/><br/>"Forgive me if this all sounds weird,"  he continued, starting to blush.  "but I feel like there is no other girl in the universe like you, and I just<em>really</em>feel like I want to get to know you.  Stop me now if I'm creeping you out... after what I just said I wouldn't blame you."<br/><br/>He said, sitting back in his chair, red faced and in disbelief of the confession he just made.
