he started out as a friend but turned into something more a few months ago. We're part of a small village community and we have lots of mutual friends.
We go to the pub and out in a group all the time and pretend nothings going on, at his request. Now we are seeing each other one-on-one in secret very frequently and I would say behind the scenes we have a full blown relationship and are sneaking round to each other's houses to stay the night.
I have told him that I want our mutual friends to know, that it'll be fine, but he says he's had bad experiences in the past with people getting involved and everybody thinking it's their business, so we don't have to make anything public.
I really like him and I am sure he likes me, but I am so confused. He is a very emotional and spiritual person who has been hurt in the past and says he just needs time to consider whether a full blown relationship is the right thing for him.
Do I just have to wait?
