But, I went to a family gathering a month ago and my cousin's friend attended. She introduced me to him and "Bam!" it was instant attraction on both our parts. My intuition says this man is a "keeper" he has everything that I find so attractive in a man and knowing he feels the same way about me is just icing on the cake. The problem is we cannot get together for a date! It's been over a month since we met. I get texts from him saying he is thinking about me and ones saying he hopes we can do something next week. Now, my cousin and Aunt both know him very well and say he's a good man and very nice. But, his job seems to keep him on a leash. He's the oldest in his family, a large one, and tends to have family functions among his other responsibilities. (by the way, he doesn't have children, a bachelor, lives by himself, very hardworking man). Frankly I'm forgetting what he looks like...lol My other cousin and friend is telling me to drop him from my dating list (I'm still going out with other men in the mean time, so I'm not sitting at home pining for this one guy, although I really like him). They are saying he's playing games and if he really wanted to date me, then he would have at least met me for coffee or a light snack. He lives a few towns over from me, about an twenty minute drive at the most. He's stated that he wants to have a special date for us that won't be interrupted by work and he wanted to get to know me better since he felt we had many of the same values and much in common. I'm a patient woman, but really, there is a limit to anyone's patience. Should I continue to be patient, or drop his behind?
