To Make Out or Not to Make Out: That is the Question

I like to consider myself an expert multi-tasker. I can listen to music, write emails and IM at the same time. I can talk on the phone while making dinner or doing the dishes. I can walk and chew gum. However, I'm not so skilled when it comes to man juggling.

I just don't know what the proper protocol is—and I don't want anyone's feelings to get hurt while I'm trying to figure it out. Including my own! I have been the Dropped Ball in a man's juggling ring and it ain't fun. I certainly don't want to drop some sweet, innocent, unsuspecting charmer on his bouncy little boy head.

So I'm faced with a conundrum: Do I make out with each of my prospects or do I wait until I know which one I really connect with? And heaven forbid—what if the making out doesn't answer my question and I fall into a months' long make out juggling act? (Oy, I think I need to go lie down...)

I'm sure guys would laugh if they read this. OF COURSE it's okay to make out! You have to test drive the car...yadda...yadda...yadda... But I don't know—it just sort of seems unfair.

Then again, maybe it's better to have made out and lost than to never have made out at all...
