How can I describe the relationship I have with this person.. it's thoroughly perfect in every way. I've never met someone so intuitive to the small subtleties to my moods like he is, and I've met and befriended a lot of empathic people in my life, so I have no shortage of that. But he takes it to the next level. I find his essence extremely endearing - that's an understatement. I love hearing what he has to say, I love hearing him describe the course his life has taken, his personal philosophies. When we're together it is the height of dreaminess. Just beyond the tales of romance novels. Now, that's all fine and great, but the fact of the matter is that it's not feasible for us to be together. It's just not realistic in the slightest - but it's hard to cut him off! It's not even a question of physical needs, but the fact I feel extremely emotionally nourished and healthy while with him. It's one of the best friendships I've ever had, but I feel like we lack boundaries and live in our own world. I'm an extremely realistic person and I know I shouldn't be doing things like this - things that "waste" my time, but I don't know. I feel so lost and ambiguous about all of this. What are the downfalls you guys see in this relationship? Be as harsh as you want, I'll take all the objective opinions I can get. He's on the outside and our birth times are accurate. Mine 100% so and his has been rounded up based on the general hour he gave me. IP: Logged |

I don't get American women, or those brought up in the culture for a long time. I guess this post is one small example.Astrology aside, from your description. It sounds fine, nothing wrong. Try talking. See if you can agree to the idea of making better use of your time? But honestly I don't get it. And I do not mean that in a rude way, but saying that in a befuddled sense. IP: Logged |
