I 31F met a guy 34M and it’s going so well! We’re going on one date a week and spending quality time together. We have both fun and deep conversations, we’re both physically affectionate, and we’ve done the sexy things. He’s a busy guy who always makes time to reach out, see me, talk to me. Our values and family goals are well aligned, and despite regularly working 12+ hour days, I find him to be reliable and trustworthy.
I like him. A lot, as it turns out🙈
We’ve also discussed how we aren’t seeing other people, me out of a preference to focus and see how I feel, him out of being too busy (his words and obviously valid). On our second date, he kind of said like “I kind of want to dive in” and be in a relationship, but it felt fast to me and I just sort of smiled. Still, I asked him to save the date for a friend’s wedding at the end of August if things were going well and he said he would. We’re planning to stay at least overnight, maybe the weekend.
Now I’m sure I want him, and I want the security that comes with an official bf/gf title— the knowledge that I want him and he wants me.
Just wondering what a normal timeline is? I’ve never actually been in a serious relationship. At first I was looking for the wrong things in a partner, then I had to get to know myself. Now I know what I want and I feel ready to be with someone and know where my boundaries and wants for the future are.
