Roosters are either sweet lovebugs or hell in feathers. There is no in between.

Because they love turkey? and it makes for a cute picture? Cat probably just hopped up there while the diner got up for something. Cats LOOOVE a warm seat

As a straight lady, I adore the guys- but to be perfectly honest when it comes to relationships and making a move they tend to either be waaay aggressive or waaay shy. Few in my personal experience ever get it "right" or "perfect" regarding timing. You may just need to actually TELL this guy how you feel.

Communication is super important to any relationship and it sounds like you guys have done very little, on this subject, each waiting for the other to make a move.
