Should I give it a little more time to see what he's thinking or should I make some kind of move to let him know how I feel.

A female age 51-59, anonymous writes:

I'm recently divorced after a miserable 15 year marriage. I never cheated on my husband, but I never loved him so I've been 'emotionally divorced' for years and ready to move on with my life! I recently connected w/ an old friend. We've chatted online, have been texting and hung out w/ a group of our friends a couple of times. He's also been offering to take up time with my kids who are the ones that are having a hard time with this. I didn't mean for it to happen but I've developed quite the crush on him. I'm not really sure if he's just trying to be a good friend to me right now or if, since he does 't know the whole story behind my husband and I's break, he likes me and doesn't want to rush me if I'm not ready for a new relationship. I did mention him spending time w/ my kids BUT if we did start to date the kids would NOT know that for 6 months because I don't want to confuse them. I would let him be around them but ONLY as one of mommy's friends...which they know I have many. Should I give it a little more time to see what he's thinking or should I make some kind of move to let him know how I feel.
