Yes….as I stated in the second paragraph, I have spent some time with her on two separate weekends. We played a lot of music and went out dancing with a bunch of her friends to some old time country music ( she lives in Idaho) , which was actually quite memorable.
We did not get together until about a year after we met. We did have quite a few phone conversations over the course of several months, then didn’t talk for a while and then she got back in touch with me.
I am very attracted to her and I know she finds me interesting on a lot of levels but here is the thing. She has been in rural environments all of her life. I on the other hand have spent time in large cities like L.A. , New York, London and now Portland Oregon.
The best I can say this is that I see a huge difference in the way people communicate in her world versus mine. In her world men want to dominate her and while I can see that she doesn’t like that and it doesn’t work for her, she is also not used to someone like me who actually likes to discuss what is going on between us. And while I try to explain to her the things that I like about her, she doesn’t seem to have a very easy time letting me know what it is about me that made her get back in touch with me.
Plus this long distance thing is probably not the easiest thing for her or me. Yet for myself it still has value because I really like her and it lights up my day to hear from her.
I guess I am attracted to her because she is so different and then as women go she is just about what I like to see. She is aware of how I feel about her.
I think the hard part for me is that she is far away and that she is a lot slower to process this whole thing than I am.
I think in general women are a bit more cautious about a situation like this. I think she is more practical and realistic about it. I, on the other hand miss her quite a bit and have more of a need to stay in contact than she does.
She is pretty damn hard to forget so now I am dealing with this.
