Dating : Recently broke up
I was in a relationship with my ex for six years and I finally broke up with him. The relationship was doomed about three years ago. We only had sex three times in three years obviously I realize that was a problem finally called it quits. I started seeing someone a month later and it was just casual, but it’s only natural for me to develop feelings for him. We live about 5 Hour Dr. away but I travel for work a lot in the area so it works out. He mentioned the wet bar we talk about two weeks in but I couldn’t have a conversation at the time and I told him that because I was going through family drama and the break up. next time I saw him about fourth week we went on two dates and even planned a weekend getaway coming up in three weeks he booked her flights and book the hotels and so on. I brought up the word are we talked this time but he says he’s also just getting out of a relationship and doesn’t want anything serious right now. He’s been jumping from relationship to relationship for years and this year he wants to give him self the rest of the year to be single and just be himself without being exclusive. Since we are both getting out of relationships I completely understand. She keeps in constant touch with me and says he cares for me and we have a lot in common and have similar values. He also says he’s not the promiscuous type to sleep around. By the way I met him on an online dating app where I reached out to him just looking for something casual nothing more but also seeing where things go and he swept me off my feet we talked for hours on the first date and since I’ve been sexually deprived I went for it. He also said he is satisfied with the amount of time we spend with each other where it doesn’t feel like a relationship but it’s just enough that he can continue seeing me, and that he cares for me a lot. He has two teenage daughters he doesn’t want to stress out either because of his past relationship history he wants to be cautious and take it slow and he even said that during holidays he’s always had someone but this year he needs to be by himself without a girlfriend. He said it’s going to be tough but something he needs to do and I completely understand. My question is is it OK for us to keep seeing each other? It’s going to be hard not to get too attached. Which is hard for me right now because I feel like I already am. I mean we’re going on a weekend getaway together in three weeks is there something I should discuss with them in particular or just give each other time and will be living in the moment. I like the part where we are both living in the moment and not stress out about what the future looks like. Im willing to give him till January to see if we can be exclusive, should I mention that to him?
By the way my ex and I have a house together for two years and we’ve been in the process of selling it but now I want to buy him out and current guy I am seeing knows that and he even offered to give me the remainder of the money to buy him out I’m like there is no way I can take money from anyone I’ve been an independent woman that was 17 and 34 now I was just shocked he offered.
