Yes he went to see a counselor and before the pandemic begins, he was supposed to start a therapy as well. He had to face illness, deaths in his family and insults based on his look. I was wondering if maybe he could have put a lof of pressure because of my past as well? He asked me a lot about what i did, with which kind of men i was etc. I usually dated men older than me (i had serious father’s issues i recently finally overcame which is why i started to be interested by younger men as i told him).
He seemed to be extremely concerned to be “at the same level” i would say, in the sens that he asked me about my social life, social environnement and i was as honest as he was, I used to date men from NYC/Manhattan, Paris etc. I explained why i went through a phase where i was with people i didn’t get along at all.
Also, i speak various languages and he started to learn Spanish (i’m extremely familiar with this language as well) and we tried to speak it together. Although he gave up as he saw he couldn’t have a “decent” chat with me. So naturally i proposed to teach him as i really love teaching but.. he refused. He did the same with music, i proposed him to show him some stuffs on piano but he kinda refused. While when it’s him who knows something i don’t know, he’s always up to teach me ?
