spiderowl Posted April 26, 2011 Posted April 26, 2011 I'm really feeling lacklustre about a possible relationship. Nice guy, been very sweet to me, but there are two problems: He's long distance, over 3 hours away by car. He's willing to travel and possibly relocate. He has an accent like my ex father-in-law, comes out with the same catchphrases and everything, some similar attitudes too. This is really difficult for me and yet what can I say? I'm trying to ignore it but it's not easy. He seems genuine, kind, willing to work at it and willing to relocate. How can I disappoint him and especially as I may be making a stupid mistake if I do? Any words of wisdom?

Why are you so concerned with disappointing him and making a stupid mistake? It sounds like it'd be a huge mistake to entertain this relationship any further... based on the info you've shared. This is YOUR life you're talking about.

I don't want to hurt a nice guy and maybe if I met him I'd become more interested. It's so hard to tell.

I don't want to hurt a nice guy and maybe if I met him I'd become more interested. It's so hard to tell. Maybe. I was assuming you'd met him (at least) and had gone on a few dates. If he's willing to come and meet you in person, why not? Just be safe and smart about it... and see...
