I had been getting to know this new Christian woman. Met her on a dating site and had only been living here a few years. Active in her church, also a greeter.
Anyways, we had real nice time on our first date and have something set up for next week for dinner.
We had been talking to each other via text/voice between dates, so there had been a good amount of time getting familiar with each other that way.
She has been engaged twice in the past. She's in her early 50s, never married.
We got to talk about dating/relationships and she is currently friends with men that she had dated at one time. She mentioned one of them that she dated like 10 years ago. Dated him for a year (knew him for 2 years). They ended it because they only thought of each other as "brother and sister", not in terms of romantic relationship.
I was like "It took you a year to discover that?" It got me wondering about if there was ANY romance going on, physical affection like hand holding and kissing. She described their terms of "dating" as more "hanging out" instead.
Usually if a woman thinks of me in that way, she lets me know immediately when I ask her out for the first date...not a year.
I may need to find out more about the nature of said relationship because I had an errand to run while we were talking about it.
The reason I mentioned her engagements was because obviously she had something romantic going on with those men, but not this one? I don't understand how you can date a full year and not just nip it in the bud in the beginning? Am I missing something here?
