Bold Stroke

Such a bold stroke. I’ve tried to picture myself doing as Anne Lister does here, and...I think my brain is rebelling because all I see happening is me reaching for AW’s lip and AW biting my finger. After some intense self analysis and hypnosis sessions, I’ve been told this is due to circumstances surrounding my previous life as a dentist. Cursed by reincarnation again! 

Seriously though, how bold is AL!? To reach out and slightly caress the lips of a woman you’ve never kissed - majorly signaling to her that you do in fact want to kiss her, so much so you can’t help yourself but to touch the object of your desire, her soft lips. I think we can agree AL basically wrote the playbook on how to seduce women.
