Thank you Diana. I hope that is how things turn out in my situation. I really like that he cares so much for his mom, but I don't want him to rely on her for everything. I know it's early in the relationship, but we have both talked about how well we just fit together and how nice it would be to build a life together... and if I'm going to be a big part of his life, I'd hope that eventually there'd be a switch where I'M the one he'd talk to before his mom. Of course she can be in the background for support, but not in the position to make decisions for him.
Anyways, I feel like after everything last night, we're a lot more bonded than we were before. It's all out in the open. I like that he didn't immediately get defensive like any other guy I've dated. He saw my problem and now we can deal with it like adults.
He told me last night "I like fighting with you, because it's not like a real fight. It's just a discussion and we both feel better in the end" And I think that's how it should be... no drama! I've already had my share of drama
I really like this guy. I know there are other fish in the sea, but I feel like he's my special fish! I don't want to look for any other fish!
