My insecurity completely.
It's weird because we have tons of fun together,
common interests, video games, webcomics and all, even down to lolling at the same web-flash meme's and internet crazes.
We think alike, I was suspicious for a while he was hyping up his personality to match mine, but the same thoughts pop out of our mouths at the same time (frequently) that makes me think it's sort of not true.
Maybe my issue here is really this; I'm still worried I'm the rebound, and he's not aware that I am.
He says their break up was mutual (I try to avoid talking about past relationships, I really do), but that she'd cheated on him at a party (making out, no sex involved- got sort of edgy when I commented "bitches lie") and mentioned it still hurt him a little to talk about.
Then again, what break up is ever REALLY mutual?
He still has photos of her on his myspace (I never really thought about it, or cared much because it's myspace.)
He's got a corkboard in his kitchen with a photo of her on it (w/e maybe he doesn't look at it a lot)
*SIGH*
OK Mega-huge long post time; I recently moved back to Florida and stagnated for a month or two since I have no friends down here. Keep in mind I am a single mum. I happened to be on AIM one day when a screen name popped up I hadn't seen in years, being said guy so I im'd him. We went to highschool together but only talked since we worked on the same project in English.
So it's been a little over 5 years now since I've talked to him. They'd broken up a month, maybe 2 when we started talking and hanging out.
I go over to visit him, we talk.
I visit him the next night, we have fun, we have sex, we talk.
We don't have sex for a couple of weeks, I'm just trying to enjoy myself with him and he the same when we get around to the conversation of maybe making our one-time hook up a more exclusive relationship. He told me I was just too awesome (I'm hot + I like video games + I have a good sense of humour) to let slip through his fingers.
I'm *STILL* trying to decide if he was just lonely and trying to fill the void, or if he was horny and wanted to make a good thing last.
We don't see eachother everyday, but text. A LOT. Get on WOW a couple nights a week. He says he's not weirded out by my son (I have no way of gauging this). We can have honest, frank, discussions about politics and sex, mental issues, ect.
I just refuse to ask about past relationships. Even though I'm getting more and more worried about certain things. I don't want to appear jealous, obsessive or just a freak. Or clingy. Or any other number of weird things.
We mesh well, and sex is freaking out of this world.
In fact, we get a long great. I'm just worried that maybe he isn't ready for(or I don't know how to handle) a relationship.
So there.
Who cares to read THIS and weigh in?
