He is a nice guy, very intuitive and sweet. Raised by a single mom and definitely has respect for women. He does have a somewhat strong personality. He hasnt done anything wrong to me but there are some issues I would like to know are just me, or real issues. I would like to say I come from a bad marriage about 4 years ago and have learned there are some things you just gotta keep to yourself with a man.Ok here goes my issues...He jokes alot. I mean to the point where if I send a sexy text he will respond "ewwww, no way" trying to be funny. Yes, I have said jokingly that he can feel free to flirt back anytime he wants. He will then an hour later tell me how cute I am.We have never talked about our feelings for each other. Not Once. I knew he was my man because of an answer he gave to someone and from a text he sent..Anyways what topped it off was today I was having a whiney day. I was fired from my last job due to market and today I was just tired of being home all the time. He said "I will just call you later, you are whiney"..Which I have to say I am NEVER complainey or whiney like this. I had a moment. I guess I feel he should have understood and listened instead of dismissing me. I feel like I cannot share anything with him. He has NO idea how bad my finances are right now. I feel like with him I always have to be happy and light. I am confused as to whether or not this is me or if I am validated in this. I sometimes feel like I am with a joking brother or something. He is sooo much fun and makes me laugh so hard but I feel I am missing the connection. We have more of a connection when we have spent a few days in a row together. It almost feels like he warms up.Its almost exhausting to be with him and all the joking. even first thing in the morning he starts in. I guess I dont know how to handle this or what to do. I feel alone in my situation and I would never want to put anything off on him but by now..shouldnt we be further? Thanks for any help!
