I wish you all the best Timmer. Be good to him, you're a great guy, he couldn't do any better when choosing you!

And snuggling... Yeah, I totally agree, snuggling is SO AWESOME!

There must be something in his life where he has been let down by his feelings. If you want this relationship, and I think you do, make it posisble (you are) for him to feel comfortable with coming and going for a bit. The problem is this will feel as though you are being jerked around. You're man enough to give him the slack he needs and to realise that you are helping him solve his own issues EVEN if it hurts you on the way.

Commitment is scary. So is love. Returned love also hurts sometimes. No easy answer.

I just came back after a long break, and I saw your posts regarding ED. I think it is great that things got worked out over new years. It seams like you two may have a good thing going hear. I wish the best of luck to both of you. My only query is why "clicking" is scary. This is what most people hope for. Maybe he is just worried about rejection.

ok the scary part about finding some one you click with really well is we both keep getting this feeling that...this is too good to be true....if that makes any sense.

add to that the fact that we are both EXPERTS in rejection so it makes us both ready for shit to hit the fan and get hurt.

Wining (pun intended) and crying work wonders sometimes, don't they?

It's really good to hear that things are working out. You BOTH deserve it. Take it slow and easy. Fear of rejection can be a powerful thing and it can be difficult to trust a relationship well enough to leap in with both feet once you've experienced it. I'm happy for both of you.

Think good thoughts,
e
