Dear Andaman Angel,

I?ve just started seeing a girl that I sort of like. I know I don?t love her, well not yet anyway!

But she?s already talked about moving in with me and it?s been less than two weeks. This is a professional young woman and definitely not what some may term a girl of dubious nature.

How do I let her know that I?m not that into her without hurting her feelings?

Dear Reader,

Yes the word ?love? is used fairly loosely in Thailand. Or, she may be experiencing the infatuation stage of your romance; if you go cold it may wear off.

However, if you want to continue this relationship perhaps you could try to explain to her that from your experience this first rush of love will very soon change into something more meaningful. She needs time to see your faults, as well as your good points. It takes time to understand you and your values.

This is important before you live together otherwise there will be arguments. You respect her and want to take things slowly so that your relationship will blossom. You don?t want to argue. You want to take your time to build a solid relationship; taking time to smell the roses along the way.
