Here we go! To start off, I've recently moved to a different state to take a job. I started being social and playing online to meet new people. Ended up metting a quite charming and attractive man that's my age. We've spent a couple weekends together and had a few lunch dates, we work at the same college and ironically enough, he lived in the same state I moved from. So needless to say, we're both new here, but from the same place, respectively (he is originally from another country) but moved here from where I moved from as well to take on a job. I've only been here about a month and have made some major improvements one includes quitting smoking. Here's my main objective to this rambling... I like him a lot, he's so handsome, charming and affectionate. We've already discussed the topic of relationships and he mentioned not really being the type to bring the topic up, it would be up to me if I wanted to talk about it. Which I don't mind at all, it's just timing for me, when is the best time to tell him how I feel about him, is it too early and would I scare him off? I highly doubt it cause we're both cuddly and affectionate with each other physically and I feel a positive vibe with him. I want him to know how I feel and figure out how he feels without seeming needy, desperate or pushy. Any suggestions would be helpful! Thanks for reading!

Hi jumpinggrasshopper - i think only you will know when you're ready but the fact that he says he isn't the type to bring up talk about relationships unnerves me somewhat...do you think he is trying to signal that he wants to slow things down a bit? If you are affectionate with each other and getting on well then i doubt this is the case but it might just be something to bare in mind. When you do feel ready to bring up the subject make sure you chose a time when you both know you won't be distracted - maybe after a nice meal or on a long walk. All the best.

I have had lots of experience and this sounds like good advice. >>
