Children and Boundarys? 2

[BL42]

Mach40,

Why do you think it's self centered?

Our divorce was amicable.
I think it is self centered because she doesnt deserve a cold shoulder, attitude due to me not wanting to see her. I say that, because I wont be the guy I was, which was full of banter, laughing with her and carrying on normal conversations. I will be distant.

Even if the D was amicable there are still going to be hurt feelings, jealously, doubts...etc. If you have to protect yourself emotionally a bit at first that's completely understandable. My guess is it'll get easier over time.

This thing with the neighbor, is it a friendship or the building of a relationship?

Lady and I are doing well. I cant afford to get sick, do to my career.. So, we are just doing non physical stuff for now. We are flirting, touching etc, and building up. I think once this cold is completely gone, we will go further faster....

Have you kissed yet? Passionately? I share LH's question (and maybe concern) that this is starting to seem platonic. Make sure to escalate and be direct if you're looking for more.

We are both foodies and travelers, so we have been talking about doing things together that involves both. Really liking her.

Shared interests are good.

Oh, and she has a Masters in business, and a forensic degree ( hard field to get into, she tried, didnt work out).

Uh oh, Masters degree? Red flag Mach40! ;-)
