I was single for two years; my current girlfriend hadn't seen anyone seriously for about that length of time, when we met; who did either of us leave, for heaven's sake?

Well yeah, that's like conflating "people who kill once in awhile" with "serial killers," for pete's sake. Let's be reasonable.
Jess, dude, call her before you worry about girlfriend vs sex etc. If nothing happens with her, nothing happens, but possibly she has friends she'll introduce you to, and so on. There are all kinds of unfilled blanks here.

Look I'm not a "serial killer", I just like to murder the occassional hooker, okay.

that seems like good, reasonable advice. i would be worried about the power balance being out of whack since she knows that you've got a thing for her, but this is apparently an unproductive line of thinking - i spend most of my time worrying about this and thus tend to alienate people/end up with game-playing mentalists.

I don't like encouraging people to think in terms of power balances like that, but even if you were to do so: it's an easy-to-accept myth (but a myth nonetheless) that the power flows to the person in whom the interest has been shown. Being interested in the interest returns power to the provider. The interest can be currency, and retailers and customers have different kinds of power.
