I am in a newish relationship with someone I really like which is very rare for me. I am normally very careful with my emotions and don't fall in love easily - but I have and just don't know where I stand.
I am seeing someone who has a similar age son to me for the past 3 months. In that time, he has lost his job which is really difficult for him and he is desperately trying to get another one as well as appeal in his view his unfair dismissal.
Things progressed at his instigation quite quickly and we introduced our kids to each other. Now we spend every weekend together and every other weekend when he has his son we spend it at his house.
He has brought me flowers and chocolates and taken me to dinner, bowling etc. It's all been lovely but after I've seen him for the weekend he usually says 'see you soon' and that's it. Because I'm a single parent, if I want to see him in the following week I have to make plans in advance but obviously can't do this. He then texts me on Tuesday or so in the week and quite often its me that suggests the next meeting.
I have said to him that I have thought he wasn't that keen and that I felt I was pursuing him etc to which he has replied he'd be round every night given the chance! But he doesn't suggest it.
Sexually things are good but a couple of times recently he has lost his erection half way through and then regained it which has really bothered him though to me I think it is normal (but not sure?)
I don't know what to think, I keep thinking maybe he isn't interested but he assures me he is. I can't keep saying the same thing and don't know whether to back off totally to see if he comes back to me or assume it is work worries or just what to do...t
