While I'm all for answering this type of question in a positive way, I think the real challenge is finding an answer that doesn't sound like the PNM is blowing sunshine up the rusher's butt. Some of the responses suggested would have rubbed me the wrong way. (I'm not trying to pick on adpiucf - her response was simply the most recent.) Of course, it's often difficult to get the right inflection when you're reading such lines as opposed to actually hearing them.
When I rushed, our Rho Chis advised us to be pretty up front at the beginning of the parties regarding our excitement level (only if we were super excited about the house, of course). That way, the rusher never had to ask questions like, "What other houses have you visited today?" in order to mentally rank where the house stands with the PNM.
Good luck CW - I hope you really click during Amber's pref party!
