How long did you stay friends with someone before you decided to take it to the next level(relationship)? Options

I was just wondering because I am pretty new at this "be friends 1st & then consinder relationship" thingy (yes I said "thingy". Get over it. Its 1 of many overused words I like )because before I usually just talk to the guy for about 2-3 weeks & then go out with them. Of course that didn't work out because I'm single now so I wanted to take the "friends 1st" approach instead.

So basically, what is an appropriate time to consinder the status of a possible "relationship"?

Talking about your past experience on this is welcome too

Okay, I'm going to be a little blunt and honest with you.

You call that sweet?
To me, pathetic would be the more appropriate word.

There he is, 27 and all grown up. He's expressing his feelings to you OVER THE INTERNET.
I did that in like.. fourth grade.

Move on. He's too old for you.

As weird as this seems, I do agree with you in the most part. The only reason I say its sweet its cuz thats the nicest hes ever been with me since hes either not talking or jerky the rest of the time.

& him "expressing his feelings online" is kinda lame too. He hates using the phone & hes always busy with either work or hanging out with friends. I would like to see him more often & talk on the phone for once but he rather talk on AIM so I just respect his wishes to talk on AIM

Yes! he is DEFINATELY too old for me! I mean he was my age when I was 12....12!!! Really, I've thought about it alot! Also how it would be like if we actually got together & how it would be extremely awkward for me. Especially meeting his fam & friends because I know they would most likely be judging me/look down at me.

Really...I have thought about this. I'm in conflict with myself! 1 side tells me to just move on but another wants to be with him. So its not easy for me to just move on like that. Only time will tell I suppose
