The love of my life didn't come along until my son was 11 and honestly he was supposed to be a "summer thing" just a fun, physical, no strings summer thing. 6 years later and plenty of reserved conversations and "I don't want a "real" relationship" ups and downs (all me) and we're happily going strong. He hung in there with me and let me be as distant or close as I was comfortable with and I love him all the more for that. If you really think he could be "the one" give him space and time, don't be a doormat, but don't be "my way or the highway" either. It sounds like he has a ton to still work out in his life. If nothing else be his friend and enjoy the extra curricular activities ;-) Can't go wrong there...

He probably has a lot he still needs to work through and sort out for himself. I know its hard to not wonder where things are going and wanting to have some idea of what the future might be. I'd focus on your life in NYC and with Calliope and when he's there or your together enjoy and then gradually see where he fits into YOUR life instead of trying to fit into his.SurlyMamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15933109106254963802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7822236028909008472.post-59833194926342134182013-10-07T11:47:48.916-07:002013-10-07T11:47:48.916-07:00Oh, all of this sounds so, so familiar!

We need to know where this is going, if there's a chance we might get married someday, how he feels, is this love, etc. So you're not crazy for wanting more than just some casual encounters. I think if women ever do have casual encounters it's with someone they're not really that crazy about but they figure they might as well kill some time until the real one comes along.wottadollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16527435736562324563noreply@blogger.com
