Things were great most of 2006, but since i got back from Scotland for Christmas, early Jan 2007, things were amazing! She craved me and missed me big time! Since then we have had loads of good times, shopping, affection and generally enjoying one another's company, when back this week, Last Mon 5th Feb, she accused me of hacking her dating website, WHICH I DID NOT! She is on medication for personal reasons, but she said She`d maybe be ok in a few days, she just told me just give me `Space` and we`ll talk later. Now, one of the things she told me leading up to Mon was that she wants to take things slow.
Now, mcgmark I know how it feels, its painful playing the waiting game, but the majority of the guyz and ladies on this forum are correct, it can only get worse if we annoy them. You have to go out with your mates, do somethings that you have always wanted to do, catch a film, etc.
I`ll leave you some advice as its what I`m doing.
1. BE STRONG.
2. DON'T BE NEEDY.
3. DON'T INITIATE AFFECTION, UNLESS SHE ASKES FOR IT.
4. SEE YOUR FRIENDS.
5. BE IN CONTROL.
6. BE MORE CONFIDENT. (WOMEN LOVE THAT!)
mcgmark, You have a friend here that is going through exactly what you are going through, lets hang there, keep us posted,
good luck!
