Thanks all,

He is a very nice person I can definitely say that. It sure is nice to have a friend, but I don't do the "all the time thing" & it seems as if he got the point this time. I will call him later in the week just to say "Hi.".....let him know that I won't just call his if I need something fixed (like he asked me to do....Lol).

I have my own space that I need to live in & I just don't like that space being invaded. I never did well with guys who wanted to be there all the time.....can't even handle being around my husband 24/7, so not about to allow a stranger there everyday.

I know he said something about feeling good for just about the length of time we have known each other. I think he was feeling very alone & just needed someone to talk to but no matter what the issue is, I still have my boundaries that I need to keep & to me that is the most important. When I am forced to feel uncomfortable, I usually bale completely away from someone, so don't think that will happen cause it seems that he respected what I said the other day.

Southern Gentelmen.....guess I just don't get it being a native Californian.....but as I said, I have my boundaries that I feel comfortable with & those I just can't change.

Thanks for the input, I really appreciate other perspectives,
Debbie
