What's the Speed Limit on this Thing?

The Communist is one of those guys who seem to be desired of by a large number of girls, but doesn't desire a large number of girls. (Hope you understood that one.) One of those numerous girls that have attempted to get closer to him actually has. She's actually had the opportunity to put her arm around his (shock and amazement,) and The Communist is teetering between rather he wants anything to actually happen with said girl.

It's gotten to the point where both The Communist and I just wish that she'd find another guy so that The Communist would just be able to go on his way looking for another girl that might actually catch his attention. So imagine my excitement when he told me that three nights ago a guy kissed her. However, she has apparently since told this guy that it wasn't going to work out between them . . . which thus doesn't help anything with The Communist.

After talking a little more with The Communist we got onto the topic of how quickly some people are able to attempt a kiss even during the first date whereas others might have been with the person for nearly a month and still nothing has happened in the kissing arena (I'll let you guess who the latter might be.)

The kissing opportunity has so many variables involved in it that there really is no way to determine when the right time to kiss is. However probably the biggest influence is just the sheer assertiveness of the two characters in play. If both are a little less forward then the page never gets turned and they are holding each other, enjoying one another's company till finally the girl gets frustrated and leaves the guy because he moves too slow and the guy gets annoyed because the girl never seems like she's all that interested.
