We had a good weekend... we went to a hot air balloon festival and music/laser show which was pretty impressive! Sat we drove up north out of state for brunch and wandered around Portsmouth, then just chilled out at home that evening with Chinese food and movies. He left Sunday morning for Maine. He told me several times that he's falling in love with me. I told him Sunday before he left that I am slower and need to take things at my own pace. There were a few instances where I wondered if he was being controlling this weekend. Not red flags but yellow flags, so I am observing and standing back still. He will be in Maine until Wednesday and I likely won't see him again until Saturday, unless he stops through on his way home from Maine. I am wondering if he is happy on his own in his life. I feel pretty happy on my own in my life. I don't want someone who is looking for someone else to complete them or to make them happy. That's important to me. He did linger a little bit past my comfort level on Sunday morning. After two nights together, I was ready to be on my own again. He stayed and lingered past a shower and breakfast, and it got to a point where I had to say something so that he would leave. But overall, I am enjoying my time with him.
