It’s not stupid … not stupid at all. You’re trusting someone else with your heart so you want to know that they feel the same as you feel for them.
I’m glad you don’t push anything. That’s important. And very healthy.
Now you may want to answer this privately (let me know if you want it posted or not) but have you two… well… gone all the way yet or are you both waiting for awhile longer? I’m curious to know.
And I’m glad that you want him to see you as a lover only. Sure you’ll teach him things, but make sure he knows that you want to learn things from him too. It’ll make him feel like he’s contributing something…and let’s be honest, we can all stand to learn new things anyways. :-)
As long as you’re taking things slow (like you already said) then I think things will work out. It will just take some time until he’s more comfortable, but it sounds like he’s already getting that way pretty fast.
That’s awesome. I love this story and I want you to promise to keep us updated! :-)
You rock man. You truly do! :-) And if you two get married, I want an invite to the wedding! lol…
