I have a personal/business relationship that has been going on for about 10
months. I never thought I could meet a guy as fabulous as this guy. He’s
thoughtful, considerate and knows how to treat a lady…blah blah blah. He
took me out for appreciation dinner for all that I’ve done which ended up
being very romantic (feeding me off his fork). All of our interactions dance on a fine line between
flirting, business and a deep care for eachother. If I could read the body
language from across the room I would probably be surprised on how many
physical cues we are both giving off to eachother.
After the dinner I felt motivated to confess my feelings to him but I was so
nervous I couldn’t and cowardly told him in a txt message after leaving the
parking lot. Yikes! I know…ridiculous for an adult. Got a response 2 days later that I took him by surprise and suggest we get together and talk which never ended up happening. We did some business together over the phone but no awkwardness or anything. I didn’t see him for over 2 months and almost
totally got him off my mind.
When we met up again, there was an even stronger connection and actually I
was even more comfortable around him despite the hurt feelings I had for not
getting a real reaction to my ‘text confession.”
He has had his heart broken a ton of times and claims he has revere trust issues.His last relationship ended in May 09 and he shared a lot about his break up with me.
He gives me every hint that he feels the same way but tries to keep the any gifts and compliments under the umbrella of business/friendship.
I really don’t plan to bring up the subject twice since the non-answer felt
like rejection. He has some serious rejection issues and has a lot of insecurities about his looks etc.
His diversion is being SO BUSY with work so he does not go up for air to
think of anything emotion related. I really want to spend more time with him
but obviously there is an undetermined reason he hasn’t re-approched me. We have have a really strong connection and I’m thinking something is holding him back.
I really don’t want to risk losing the business but would if it meant he felt the same about me.
He’s that great.
