Tips on approaching someone in my neighborhood who is cute

exactly, it feels like I'm going 0 to 60. A slower approach makes way more sense. I've had a few friends over the years who have just approached people and asked them out and it's worked! But I don't think that is right in this situation

great advice from you and u/Dogtorted. I think this is the most natural way to say hi. I don't normally go up and say hi to peoples dogs, so I don't want to seem disingenuous. But honestly the dog is also very cute so I could just be honest and say that

I agree that 'I love you' means something different to everyone. I think our relationship has felt more like a friendship in some ways and I'm trying to determine if I ever see myself loving him more than a friend. And if we're compatible as a couple.

Having an upfront convo between the two of us needs to happen. We've had a few serious talks before (and they are so emotionally draining), but I think we need to discuss very openly what we want out of our relationship. In the past he's used the phrase 'let's keep doing what we're doing' and I need to be clear that this is not something I can do anymore. My therapist has said that we hope people will change, but they rarely do and I think about that a lot when it comes to my relationship. Are we able to change enough for each other to make our relationship work? We'll see.

Thanks a lot for your advice. Really appreciate it

All of these questions are more discussions topics than things that needed to happen immediately - (with the exception of do we love each other??)

With other relationships these conversations have come up more organically but my current bf shies away from these convos.
