Minimalism and allowing real interaction

He hasn't called yet.

I was happy to receive his text this morning, and I wanted to text back. But to what end?

Doing what is necessary, but only what is necessary, allows space for real interaction.

• To show him how happy I am? It was early enough that he knew I would probably be asleep and would not be replying.
• To encourage him? I already left him a voice mail that I said I would like him to call me. anyway, do I really want someone who would need encouragement, or do I want to interact with confident men? 
• To inspire him to call. . . more? Obvious answer.  ;-)

So, I will resist. Make myself dinner, and wait. . .try to distract myself with some sort of activity around my apartment. . .like blogging. :-)
