You've managed to take the romance out of romance and made me feel inadequate at the same time. Well done!
Women! Give up your secrets!

Ok, so here's the timeline. Let me know if I'm just being an idiot.
Met online about 3 weeks ago. Emailed back and forth and set up a date for this Saturday.
Thursday we're texting back and forth and she says she could use some cheering up and asked if I could meet her up at her place after work for drinking and what not. So, I did. We went to a bar thats on an adjacent block and drank and talked for about 3 hours. Afterward we walked her dog (who loves me) and she wrapped her arm around mine. Back to her place for more drinking and we ended up drinking until after the time the subway closed, so she suggested I stay at her place.
Being the drunken fool that I was, I didn't object. I would've taken a cab, but no biggie. I'm trying to avoid the whole "sleeping with a girl on the first date thing" because that never works. So, since my deadline was already past we drank some more and laughed and then she whipped out the photo album and she reminiscenced.
Fun times.
After a while we finally went to sleep and I did sleep in her bed but no funny bidness. She did wrap my arm around her in a general "spooning" fashion. Again, I'm trying to be good this time around. I left for work with the world's worst hangover wearing the same clothes I did the day before and here we stand texting back and forth.
I'm worrying about this because I curious as to how much of this is due to the booze and how much of this is actually her.
Oh, and she has a British accent so I could just listen to her talk all night long.
Ya gotta figure it was the booze.

Thanks! Pssst...she likes you...
If those aren't all signs that she really likes you, I don't know what is! And you were very romantic in not trying anything too early... Very promising, all of it. Hope it turns out well.
Just DON'T tell her about cooleddie!!
This piece of advice is not specific to women.
Actually, he shouldn't tell about trekbbs at all !
Yes, I have gotten some funny looks each time I've mentioned I'm a "Vice Admiral" on a Star Trek messageboard.
Don't do it!
Don't do it!
Like I said, I'm trying with this one. I'm done with the one night stands.
So it works the same way in the UK? If you marry a UK citizen you can skip a large part of the wait?If it turns out really well, that's your ticket to a green card...

To my knowledge you can skip all of the wait, marriage to a UK citizen is an instant welcome mat.
ETA: Yes, just looked it up, if you are married to a UK citizen in a lawful marriage or civil partnership (it goes on for some length as to what a lawful marraige isn't, so watch out for polygamy
), you are entitled to entry for an indefinite period (code for permanent resident). The most they can stick you with is the UK citizenship test (which isn't actually a joke, I failed it when I took it without revising/trying very hard)
Now you've made poor Squiggy paranoid! Can't we have one damn untainted thing in here?
