temporary interest? My experience in life has led me down some bothersome paths, and from that I am now unable to actually tell if I care for a person or just have a temporary interest in them. The reason I ask this is because recently I have met a woman who does not fit my normal routine. I generally go for the girl with the lowest self esteem because I have issues with my own self image, this method for choosing generally leads to brief semi-satisfying relationships. That aside this new woman actually seems to hold my interest mentally with witty banter between us, and the ability to have a stimulating conversation that's not television related. Her existence in my life has recently caused a great deal of confusion for me because I am honestly horrible at dealing with people I can relate to, so this has caused me to think outside the box a lot more than normal. So I suppose my question stands at "Is there any reasonable way to help me judge if I am starting to actually care for this woman?"
