writes: It's a classic situation of pursuit and retreat... this man and I have shared an attraction for about a year but haven't talked about it openly. We had to be apart for a time and I was pleased to find out that when we came back together he was still interested in me. Since then we have been moving closer, but very very slowly. Finally we've touched, just a few times, in ways that reflect our attraction more although still nothing at all intimate - and he showed that he was happy about it and wanted to do more. But since then he has gotten "busy", has had no time to see me, which is normal considering our professional and personal involvements, but I also believe he wants space until after the holidays, when we would normally be meeting again. No problem, he can have his space, but I am wondering if sending a small gift without trying to see him face to face would be felt as pressure. Or would he be happy to know I am thinking of him?We don't have much time to be together because he will return to his own country in a few months, so this has to be a short term sort of affair. That's why I would like things to move more quickly, but I don't want to push and ruin everything.
