The problem is, we live 200 miles away from each other and only see each other three times a year for weekends when we tour with a choir we are both part of (this has been happening for 1/2 years). When we are together, we get on so well and there is this chemistry but everytime we mee, he keeps on forgeting my name and what I do etc even though he always remembers he is friends with me. Its really frustrating because all the signs are there otherwise. I would have asked for his number etc but only came out of a long term relationship a month ago (one that the man in question didn't know about) and at the time wanted to be faithful to my boyfriend. Unfortunatly, being with the man only made me realise how poor my existing relationship was. I am seeing him again at the end of the month. Do I just forget it as how can he be interested in me if he can't even remember my name, or do I go for it. I just worry I'd be setting myself up for a fall as my feelings for him have heightened so much since I split with my boyfriend...

On the positive side those feelings were there before you split with your boyfriend so you can be relatively safe in the knowledge that this isnt just a 'bounce' thing. Maybe you should set yourself the goal of progressing but at a steady rate, enough time to give you time to recover from your previous relationship. A distance relationship might suit you that for the moment it will give you space to heal. Exchanging numbers would be a good first step, its not exactly jumping into bed and it means you can keep in the times when you are not normally together and hopefully it should ensure he remembers your name! Good luck with it.
