@Nurs123Bubbles 
I think that space keeps couples healthy, but then my sister and her bf are like siameses and been together for 16 years 🤷 there isn't only a single thing that makes marriages work. From your previous comments to my message, maybe you have not healed properly yet. Have you done therapy? And how long has it been?
Wit woo @JeSuisPrest, you loose amazing in both!!! You will sweep him off his feet no doubt. Personally, I would wear the black, but you have a great figure, so you will look good no matter the dress.
@Lillyrose19 I have been there, both sides of the coin. When I didn't want a relationship, I put a shield to avoid becoming too close, so I never gave it my all or let myself be vulnerable/open too much. If you notice some distance, he is probably doing just that. It looks like you are on the other side though. If you knew from the beginning and wanted different, there is a point when you need to break things off before you are too attached and becomes painful.
@CocoKoko123, @Ant330, @sidge congratulations and thank you for sharing. It gives the rest of us hope and makes me happy to read positive stoeies.
Update on MrChef. We went to the drive in last night and there was sex in the car, twice. And again when he dropped me off at home. TMI warning He is not the giving type, 1 min of fingering and in, and when he ejaculates it is off. Repeat three times and I had to ask him to make me finish for once!! TMI ends
After talking so much about his high sex drive and how he needs someone who matches, that was disappointing.
A couple other observations:
- He has tried to learn a few words in my native language (not English), that was sweet. He said "a man just needs the right motivation" - whatever his is
- He had Tinder installed and I think he removed it during our date (based on two short glances at his screen when he uses GPS in his phone to drive). It is early days so I understand if it is still there, but tbh Tinder is used here for hookups only, so makes me wonder... But would someone wait 6 dates just for a shag?
- I thought his kids lived 90min away, but that's round way, so they are actually 45min away. That's my commute to work... and although he talks about them all the time and is very proud of them, he only sees them every second weekend (they are still not in school). This is a bit of a red flag. Plus he has invited me to go to the beach with his kids already (after 6 dates, 3-4 weeks of first meeting).
