Sorry, this is going to be a "me, me, me" post but Bacon has just left and I need to get some things down.
So, we had a good time. He arrived at 7 last night, we went out for dinner, things were very sexually charged. Had a really good dinner, lots of flirting, great conversation. Taxi back to mine, straight to bed....and the sex was not great. Not going into great detail but nothing awful...just below expectation. Then this morning we mooched about the house for a bit, drinking lots of coffee and have LOTS of conversation about all kinds of things (some of which got quite deep) and then went for a walk and had breakfast out and walked back and he's just gone.
So apart from the sex, everything was great. Really great. We get on well, lots of laughter, lots to talk about. It's just easy being with him and it was nice having him in my house. He's an interesting person, I like how his mind works.
The sex thing worries me. This morning he got up before I did but we could have gone back to bed. We did talk about it (I initiated it...no head in the sand stuff here) and agreed there was something "off" but his view was that it was not a big deal, we'll have other opportunities and it's early days. Which is all true. I think we'd built it up a bit (lots of flirty/sexy banter during the week) and then rushed things a bit when we got back from dinner. Plus we were both a bit pissed. It would have been nice to have another go this morning but he wasn't really into the idea.
I'm not sure what my problem is or if I have one at all really! The good thing is that he wasn't just after sex, he was clearly here for the duration and sees this as early days in something bigger, which is reassuring. I guess part of me doesn't feel...well, fanciable, I suppose which is daft cos I know he does fancy me.
Also, we're not now going to see each other for two weeks
as I'm away next weekend, so I'm a little concerned about things cooling during that time. But he's not. He said something along the lines of "it'll go quickly, you have your busy life and I'm not going anywhere" to which I blurted "promise?" and he said "yeah, of course not!"
I think he's just a bit more sure of things than I am. He's being very sensible and a two week absence at this stage of...whatever...is nothing really. It's just my brain having a little freak out. But he's good for me in that respect...this morning reminding me to go with the flow and accept things for what they are, which I really need to hear sometimes. I just need to be careful not to be too needy with him.
If we'd have had amazing sex last night, I'd be over the moon right now. As it is, I'm still smitten and I'm really reassured by his behaviour generally, I'm just a bit...I dunno...worried maybe. But the sex can come good in time, right? (scuse the pun!)
