I'm in love with my boss. He's in love with me too. Should I kiss him or let him make the 1st move?

We've been getting to know each other the past two months and everyone notices how happy we are together and thinks we'd be good together. However, I want things to progress naturally. He's the man, and older than me, so should I wait for him to make the move physically? I feel like he should initiate. There's no rush in this situation, yet I think about and fantasize about kissing him every single day. I'm in love. I know he feels the same way. Should I assume he's waiting for a romantic moment for our 1st kiss? We've only been on casual lunch/dinner dates so far. I feel like he wants to really romance me before making a move. What should I do?

Summer course dilemma - what would you do?

Fees for my summer courses are due on the 18th. I am currently enrolled in two courses, one that is required, and one I would be taken to get an elective out of the way.

The issue is, cost.

For the two courses it is $1439.71.

If I drop the elective, it goes down to $792.27. This is the option my boyfriend thinks would be best, as he thinks then I could work more (I don't really see the logic behind that, as it is an online course and I can work around it, as well as he's suggesting temp work [which he himself refuses, as he says temp agencies are crooks] when I have three part-time jobs already).

My thoughts are, taking two costs roughly $715 per class, whereas the one costs $792.27 by itself. I would also have to take an elective at some point anyway (probably next Winter to finish off my degree).

I have enough in the bank for either option, the two courses together would just cause a pinch until my next paycheque.

What would you do? Neither option puts our regular household costs in jeopardy.

Has anyone here ever been to school or university abroad?

Someone abroad told me that in his country, college is not as expensive as it is here in America. In fact he was shocked at the prices we pay here for college or universities. I know that the schools here are almost like a business, and I'm convinced that unless you want to be a lawyer, professor, doctor, or teacher, etc., it really doesn't pay to go to college or university. You can learn from other schools, such as a tecnical school. So tell me if you know for yourslef, or if you know of someone who has been to school abroad, what the costs are in comparison to schools here. I will check with schools abroad myself as well. Thanks.

Ok, correct me if I'm wrong...

I have this female co-worker who counteracts almost everything I say. For instance, if I say I love a dress, she will say, I don't see myself wearing that, or if I say, I have guy friends, she would say she doesn't understand why I would, and she could never do that, or my personal tastes are weird in her eyesight. Could it be that she's just different than I or is she trying to insult me (in a non-aggressive) way? I don't know, it has me wondering.

I attended a tutorial which made no sense and I'm facing disciplinary action for not participating

Hi there Answerology members!

I went to a tutorial this morning, a 'critical writing workshop'. The tutor was incredibly late and only two out of the twelve people who said they were coming actually showed.

In the first part of the tutorial, we were asked to map out Australia, including anything that settlers would be looking for and then asked us to compare that to what we were studying at university. No matter how many times we tried to come up with answers, we failed to answer this question to a satisfactory level for her. We are both high achievers.

At the end of the tutorial, she told me that she was 'extremely disappointed'. I told her that unfortunately I had to leave but thanked her for her time and she basically shouted at me out the door until I could no longer hear her, telling me I was condescending and rude.

I just received an email from her telling me that she had spoken to my dean of studies and was going to personally call my principal and complain about my behaviour. She said to me in the email, "you play dumb to try to control me via a power game and that never works in the real world". She also wrote, "coming without a pen and paper is extremely inappropriate" and I simply forgot to bring them with me, it was an honest error. She told me I had acted passive aggressively.

She told me to apologise in the email "in the interim" while she was writing to my principal but I honestly have nothing to say to her. I tried my best and I dont appreciate her telling me that I am stupid or passive agressive. I generally get along with 90% of people. I'd be grateful for any advice as to how to deal with this situation and eventually what to say to the dean of studies and principal.

Thank you!!!

I hadn't made any violations, it was a tutorial which was in place in order to help students develop critical analysis and it was completely optional to attend

Listing my house for sale, my neighbor and "friend" wanted to list it

Every bone in my body said find an excuse not to let her, but I verbally agreed to. I say "friend" because she is the typical trying to build a business and wants to get in with people to get their business, but has proven to be gossipy, lazy, and not a real friend. It's my fault, I knew better, but what do I do now?

Here's my problem:

First she said I could easily get a certain price, then as soon as I said she could list it she emailed me a substantially lower price saying among other questions saying "is that still the price?

She said she would stage my house...she came over one time and moved a cookbook to my counter and said she would bring over a stand for it...and that was her staging. She never brought over the book stand, not that I care about that, just ridiculous in my opinion.

She said she would hire a professional photographer to take pictures and do a virtual tour online. Then she called and said I got permission to use the old pictures.

She also said she would make brochures, haven't seen one.

We are supposed to list the house tomorrow and no word from her in a week, even though before we agreed to list it with her she was over every afternoon to just talk.

Can I get out of this? I actually need someone that will do what they say. She did print off other listing in the area, which she could've just emailed me, I said you didn't have to do that her response "I always give a 100%!". Clearly I disagree with her self critique, but don't know what to do.

Update: May 16, 2012.
I'm more interested into how to "socially" get out of this in a way that isn't offensive.
