Just tell me this: during all the period of your self-imposed celibacy, have you not met an interesting, attractive guy? Sorry, but it's just hugely unconvincing. I'm pretty sure, however, you have to tell yourself what you gotta. Case closed.
Penny, i think this scenario does not speak of a romantic, long-term relationship, which, i believe, is something you want--respect, caring affection, commitment. since i am not involved, it may be easier for me, and others, to see this more rationally. the fact that your encounters together have all involved alcohol makes this situation even more unbalanced--and precarious. it's hard to give online advice to strangers; but from what you've told us, it sounds like a unworthwhile venture--unless, of course, you just want porno sex for a couple weeks. i strongly encourage you to go to France this summer--i was in Provence for seven weeks this winter and it was beautiful. peace.
come on you know it will never be. i'm okay with pretending it is now tho. i relax. and fuck. i'm only 22!!!! as he said... haha. ok that was the last thing i said about him like.. ever..
thank you. you're right... he's not the romantic type. at all. he's sweet tho. who knows. i don't wanna think about the future or make plans or anything. just take one day at a time and all that matters right now is that i actually am interested in him unlike all those guys i've dated for the past year cause i was trying to kill time. maybe the fact that we had sex makes me care more?? i don't know.. but if it turns into a serious relationship, good. if not.. oh well. i don't want a commitment from him.
