I say go for it and make yourself happy.
I can't think of a single reason why you're apprehensive about giving it a go if I'm honest.
It wouldn't be a "serious relationship" to start with would it? No harm in going out a few times, trying to build something and entering into something. If it got too serious for your liking, and you feel it's not something you need right now - you could always end it and remain friends. This girl seems to tick all the right boxes, and you're a guy that likes being in a relationship.

Well that's the thing... I know there's no pressure, and there are outs, and that I would like to be in a relationship with someone who isn't either a slut, nor a slut who cheats on you with a fry cook while you're in Iraq, nor a Dirty Gertrude McHelga. So in this scenario, it's very likely to be a win.
So why am I finding the idea both compelling and repulsive, for lack of a better word? I know I'm not afraid of commitment, as I was engaged to a woman who, afterward, cheated on me with a fry cook while I was in Iraq... So could it be that? Or have I just grown too fond of being free to do what I want, even though it's neither emotionally nor physically healthy in any way when it comes down to how I spend my free time?
Or am I just thinking?
I gotta say, I never thought my way into a relationship before. They all just kinda happened before I knew they were happening, over the course of being intoxicated. Maybe that's my problem. Being sober... (as an alcoholic, this is awesome news)
