I’m not sure that he isn’t relationship oriented. I think he hasn’t dated much because of his situation and not feeling like he has had a lot to offer anyone. It’s only recently that he’s had a decent job that pays well. Prior to that, he was really stretched financially which is a bigger deal for guys I think than with women.
Pretty sure if XH1 and I ever went down the road of a relationship, it would not be a friends with benefits situation. I wouldn’t risk the friendship we have for that, TBH. I doubt he would either. He knows the kind of person I am and would never venture down that road unless he was serious about it.
Anyway…time will tell. I’m open to what the universe puts in front of me. This may just be a brief trip down memory lane and a weekend spent with people I love or it may turn out to be something more. I think it will be fairly clear to me by the end of the visit which it is.
