Topic: how much is too much? | |
---|---|
I started seeing this guy. It started out by hanging out with him and his friends and then we started seeing eachother every night the week prior to him leaving. He is not working too far away. I am going up to see him this weekend. He is tied down by his job and I have a young child. How much can I expect out of this relationship? Im not to sure how much of myself to invest. Any thoughts?

you can only expect what you both can do. you know more then all of us you can try and hope for the best that both your obligations don't hold you back. good luck with that

Well I say give it some more time. I think you will eventually figure out if he's good for long term. Is either one of you going to be willing to move closer? Being tied to a job is not such a good thing unless he can make time for you.

Why not try and at least get a hold of him before going to see him so he know's your coming to see him, unless he already know's then that's a different story.
I guess if he can't meet you in the middle or half way then it wasn't worth it, but if he can then it was all worth it then some. I guess you'll never know unless you give it a shot and see what happens. Good Luck. |

how far is the distance between the two of you?

My last relationship was abusive so I am really tenative. I dont want to give too much but at the same time I dont want to miss out on something great. I suppose I just have to be patient like shutterbug63 suggests. Patience isnt exactly one of my virtues.

only two hours and it is temporary. after that he is right down the road actually

John and he knows im coming. He invited me.

2 hours is not bad especially for a temporary situation.
how much time you invest depends on the two of you. how much you want the relationship. start off slow, use the fact that he is 2 hours away to give you time to decide what you want. |

i agree with everybody give it some time. you found someone and thats a goal meet. i wish ya'll the best.

2 hours away is great way to start something. gives you time to think about what u want and him too.. i say go for it dont stop seeing him. if dont work it dont work have patenice()Sp)

follow all the above advice. use your instincts. they will tell you what to do.

well im not going to try and tell u what to do because i dont know exactly everything about the situation, but if it were me, i would give everything that i was trying to get out.

GIVE IT TIME AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS
TALK TO EACH OTHER OPENLY |
|
|
|
it depends on how willing you both are to make it work.if his job is more important to him than you are,well than you don't need him.
