Yet Another Confused Person

Hello Everyone -

My name is Lindsay... I found this site a little over a week ago and have had a good time reading some of your insights. I guess that I'm looking for a little bit of feedback from people who are in a OM/YW relationship.
I work in a very old church and we have contractors in to do various things day in and day out. The first time that I saw this man, we'll call him John, there was instant attraction. He's tall and handsome.... very intelligent... very friendly. Much like myself except for the tall and handsome part. :D Every time he'd come in, we'd exchange extremely flirtatious chat. Neither one of us ever mustered up enough courage to do anything beyond that, but the feeling is definitely there. So here recently, we started exchanging some e-mails. It started off with something innocent (mowing the grass) and an invitation to his house so he could teach me how. (Yes, I'm 20 years old and never mowed a lawn. I do believe that it's high time I learn.) It turned out that the weekend he was suggesting was bad, but then I got to thinking about it and it really was on the way to where I was going. The e-mail that received from him him said that he had this to do and that do to and he didn't know "if or when he was going to get to the grass for a while".
My question is, is what do you think of him (who is 53) inviting me to his house, but then changing his story? He doesn't have a girlfriend or a wife or anything... so that's already out. I don't know. I really like him a lot and I'm willing to go for the long haul... I don't know... ay yi yi... I'm lost!

Any thoughts?

Lindsay

He doesn't have a girlfriend or a wife or anything...

How do you know for sure? Sounds like he's either "taken" or just really apprehensive because of the age gap at this point.

Golly, it's entirely possible that he may have just had some things come up!!

If I understand your post, you were initially hesitant, then when you decided to agree he had things to do... and it could well be just that.

Let him know you're still interested in getting together. If you're feeling particularly bold, suggest something.

I don't believe you could tell if it's anything but the truth right now... It could just be a bad week... However.... Just take it slow see where it goes.... and you'll know with time if it's not going to work or not.....

LindsayLou,

Welcome to Ageless! I agree with everyone that it may be too soon to tell if he's backing off. Take it slow, and let him know how you feel. If it's meant to be, it'll work out. I wish you the best!
