Let me just specify that complete honesty is "you know... I'm really liking spending time with you, I'd like a chance to do it more", not "I collect your hair that falls out and tape it to my pillow and spoon it all night"...

... just so we're clear.

Admiration is flattering... criminal infatuation is scary.

Hey, I failed the psychopath test, so that's one thing going for me.

I know I present myself online with exaggerated dimensions, but in person I'm fairly reserved. I'm pretty sure I can manage to not be scary.

Now there's a conversation opener.

See, I know how to communicate the pertinent details!

Maybe I should mail you a letter on my letterhead that gives you a certification of sanity...

Talk about a chick magnet, whoo-eee! Nothing gets 'em hot like a letter from your psychiatrist!

I like it.

"Hey, baby. I failed the psychopath test, and I've got tin foil underwear. Wanna go out?"

Yeah, CV, just send me Claire's email address and I'll fill her in...

Hmm hmm, I bet you'll try all right....

Seriously CV, just make sure you don't go too fast or come on too strong. You don't want to potentially ruin two couples that are best friends, as well as what at least for now is a good friendship with her. The best of all possibilities would be for her to choose you, albeit with a little nudging from you.

You know, I was trying to avoid using her name so it would be just SLIGHTLY harder to do a simple Google search and find this thread. Ha ha. Oh, well. I'm sure she won't be searching for me online, anyway, since she already has the flesh-and-blood version.
