I'm really, genuinely glad this worked out for you.
When feminists talk about the objectification of women, though, I think this is a prime example. (Admittedly there are no details.) The assumption that bothers me is that it is ok to approach a "pretty girl" about entering into a relationship.
Isn't this problem as old as the hills?
