So this is a bit of a unique situation. I am 35 years old, don’t really date much. She is a single mother with a 2 year old son. We dated and lived together for 8 months. She felt we were losing passion for each other and suggested moving out. She declared that she fell in love with me but I at the time did not share that same feeling. We break up and a couple weeks later was moved out. The initial hatdest thing was her child. I really bonded with him and would live to be his father. She declared that I am his favorite person. It’s only been 2 1/2 months and she has been dating a new guy for 2 months of it. The kicker is that I watch her son on weekends when she has to work all day at the clinic. I continue to watch him and am delighted that she lets us bond still. But now that this new guy is in the picture does this mean I’m completely out of the picture or what? I have developed very strong feelings for her ever since she left. Initially it didn’t bother me but each passing day it get’s tougher to not think of her. Does she have feelings for me? Should I tell her how I really feel?
