Greetings from another non- english speaker. Nice to have you aboard.
I speak Hungarian, and am pretty fluent in Hebrew , too.
I can't wait for Dupree's choice, either. Of course, I just don't see why he actually has to make a choice.... until he does, Louise will probably continue writing.. ;)

Hi everybody , Hi Lhuthiel,
Hello Ronit
Are you actually saying you are from Hungary? Then I was your northern neighbor! Here around Toronto we are all thoroughly mixed up and my best friend is Hungarian. I didn't realize, until I met her, how many words from your language I've known ( my grandparents spoke Hungarian but never taught me). I speak Slovak Czech and Russian.
we are nice mix here :)

Jeremy is still in the midst of coming to terms with his sexuality and the affect of his intense sexual experiences with Nick. He is far too emotionally up in the air to deal with Nick's declaration of falling in love in addition to this and he is also in no state to decide his attitude towards women on the basis of his forthcoming date. The physical has galloped miles ahead if the emotional. Just my opinion.

You raise some interesting points, Louise. I think you're right that a declaration of love so early in the relationship is overwhelming for Dupree but the confusion he feels and the dominance of the physical seems entirely in proportion to what you would expect. The early days of relationships are often characterised by spending a lot of time making love, often to the exclusion of all other activities, but at the same time I think the emotional develops alongside this. The key issue for Dupree is whether he can reconcile his sexual identity, until that happens, he will probably continue to feel ill at ease. I don't think the issue is so much about his attitude towards women but his own sense of sexual identity and orientation. And I don't know that sex is necessarily the best way to determine your sexual orientation but I guess for some people it seems like the logical thing to do.
