Thank you Anne, Sally, Spidey and Bluesman… Appreciate your responses..
After I lashed out on him, he apologized and said he has high regards for me, and wouldn’t treat me like I thought he was. He said he was ok even if I stop talking to him but since I forgave him, I keeping in touch with him.
He enjoys conversations with me, ensures to be in touch all through the day…We are trying to know each other well in terms of likes, dislikes, ambitions and views on relationship. He rushes home to video chat with me, gets restless until I turn on my camera… He wishes to spend time with me. As he comes from other city, he wanted to stay at my place. But before I have any confessions of his feelings for me, I don’t want to let him come and sleep with me. Time and again, the answer remains, ‘I’m his friend with whom he is comfortable’, although he ensures to be in touch all day, likes to see me smile… I still don’t get what it is, do guys really take long time to express their feelings? Is he going slow or still being FWB… When confronted earlier, he said he was just being open that he has had that earlier and was not applicable for me. But I clearly remember his words that night when asked ‘what is happening, what is this?’….He said…’It’s infatuation, don’t get carried away’. I was unable to sleep…He said…’It happens, it had happened with me, just close your eyes, stop thinking and sleep’.
For now, I’m going slow and not expressing anything apart from taking his clues slowly… At this stage, although I can see that he likes me, I have no surety of what’s in his mind…Perplexed!
