Hi

I finally got to go on a date with a man I have been interested in who is a friend of my brother. I got his phone number and texted him that it would be nice to talk sometime. He is a shy man so I had to make the first move. We had a very intense romantic encounter one night at my brother home after a party and he has been on my mind ever since. He is 60 and I am 41 but this doesn't bother me one bit (no I don't have daddy issues).

 

Anyhow we went on our date and I think everything went fine. We were very comfortable together and I find him extremely attractive. We held hands and I am pretty sure he is into me to.

 

So my issue is. I hate it when I am so into a man. I find it easier to cope when I have to wait for feelings to grow. I find this guy so very attractive in every way. I don't want to turn him off by being needy. I'm not a needy person. I just want him. I am doing my best to remain calm. But I don't want him to think I'm not interested because I definitely am. I really need to find a balance here. if its meant to be it will happen anyway.

 

I just feel so clueless when dealing with strong attraction. I don't want to crash and burn this.

 

Thanks for reading. Any advice would be appreciated

Just trust yourself and do what feels right. The more you overthink things the more you're going to risk self sabatoge.

Just relax and avoid your impulses, wait for reciprocal behavior and interest....if all else fails you can sit on grandpa's lap for Christmas and tell him you want a maaaaaan in your stalking this year, then give him a nice one eyed wink with your mouth wide open wide while slightly bobbing your head back and forth.

 

Make sure you whisper in his ear though "I have viagra, don't worry!"
