Split from abusive ex a few months back but relationship was over a long time ago. I started dating a fella i worked with and we were friends outside work anyway, we have a shared hobby. He is lovely, and considerate, has bought me a few things, weve really clicked but then we were friends anyway and we live about a mile away from each other, he has grown up children, my youngest is 8 and he has put me under no pressure about things or meeting our families..in short he is completely normal..too normal

Im freaking out because he just seems normal, im not used to someone not being volatile or aggressive, able to sort his own shit out, can drive, have his own house

I half expect him to flip and turn on me and shout, push me about and i have explained some of this to him and all he does is hug me and says well work through things together.

I keep thinking..too good to be true..are there normal decent men out there

Yes there are.

Being friends first, having a shared hobby - all excellent starting points.

If you're having therapy, don't stop.

Of course there are still men like that Grin enjoy it and take it slow. We're not all abusive cheats. Stay happy
