BJC,

I say wait at least one date or two before bringing it up, unless she brings it up first, and then try and learn a little bit more of her history. How old she was, how many, how did she cover up their disappearance, or did she? But don't harp on it and keep firing questions like an interrogator! That's the worst thing you can do!

You need to get her interested in you first, any fetish stuff is just icing on the cake... not to be too culinarily corny, but when was the last time you saw candles just stuck into icing at a party! You need that cake underneath!

HOWEVER, if she brings it up, be sure to compliment her confidence and power in being able to step on something! I'm sure she'll appreciate it, don't forget that she may be thinking I'm not quite normal and may need some reinforcement! (Does she know that you witnessed Lori crushing?....) But don't dwell too long on it, and again try and get her to open up a litte each time you two dicuss it.

Finally, if you are getting a really good vibe from her, let her know that you've never seen anything like that, but would love to see her crush something... or maybe recommend she come over and take care of your mouse problem (this would take on a humourous tone... in case she shys away from it, you have an out)

These last two will be the hardest to decide when to do, and actually do, and it's all on your shoulders to enjoy or regret the results!

So, if you think you two are good together regardless of crushing, then take your time! If the romantic end fails you could always pursure a platonic crush friendship.

I speak from experience from a trampling friend... I almost pushed too hard... actuallly I did, but luckily some work issues/problems popped up and she eventually initiated some trampling fun as an escape from stress! Now we get together occasionally and all is cool!
