Afternoon all... ramping up to the big day here, bit of present wrapping, mother-herding, etc.
Spoke to Mr Mixtape today after gently calling out the change in contact since we got back from our weekend. He admitted he was starting to feel the weight of expectation as to whether we were moving towards being 'boyfriend/girlfriend' and had wanted to take some time to reflect on it.
We had a good honest chat about what we both wanted and agreed to try and meet during post Christmas week, he asked for some dates and will get back to me. We're going to meet during the day for a walk/talk/lunch. I think it could go either way when we meet, but we did agree re really get on and fancy each other, have a lot of fun together, but the sticking point could be a mismatch in terms of what we can both offer the other.
@Eesha that is lovely even if early, sometimes it's just how you feel. Did you reciprocate? I've had things like that before where one person has said it for a while before the other and it hasn't mattered at all.
@Gettingonwithit12 yes I'd agree with others that after any sort of meet it's the right thing to send a message. I don't think it matters much who sends the first one - if they're not feeling it you can soon tell because comms tail off naturally. It is weird when you've been messaging daily and then it peters out, it's why meeting sooner rather than later is a very good thing!
@BelladiMamma The stories I think judges and barristers must be able to tell in terms of the crazy things they're asked to support or approve in family court hearings.
