6 days! Excited but skeptical

by Tatiana84 @ 2008-05-10 - 09:13:03

I wrote a long post last night but my internet crashed just as I pressed send. I spent half an hour (and £10 calling credit) phoning my provider but didn't get through to a technician. I got up early this morning with the full intention of going into the store and causing a bit of a scene but (touch wood) it all seems to be fine!

Sean is home!! He text me as soon as he landed and we were texting all morning (well, when I could get to my phone anyway) Just as I was about to go back to class after morning break he text (in reply to my text about this week going really slowly) "yeah it will be long. I was going to try not to have sex til I see you but I don't think I can"

Excuse me??? Cue my stomach flipping and me realising that I'm making a huge mistake. He really does only want me for one thing.
So I replied "oh thanks, that makes me feel so wanted"
"I know how bad that must sound. I'm sorry, you know you mean something to me."

Do I?? Apart from the fact that I know he is travelling quite a way to come and see me, there has been very little other indication that I mean something  to him.
I didn't reply.
If he thinks that I'm going to let him pounce on me the second the door opens he can think again. I mean, I probably would have done if I felt a bit more wanted but after messages like that I am having serious doubts.

By the time lunch time came he'd text me again "Are you ok with me, can I phone you?"
I told him that I was still at work and would be home by 5.30 and that I'd chat then. I didn't even put any kisses on the end of the message.

Sure enough at 5.30 he phoned. It was really nice to actually speak to him rather than just read words on a screen. We had a nice chat but he didn't mention about hte text and neither did I.
I know it's hard for soldiers to express themselves, and to feel things like the rest of us do. They see so much that noone should ever have to see and they have to become hardend to things so I'm trying to reserve judgement til I actually meet him.
But what do you think?
Should I go with my head and call it all off now as I really can see that I'm setting myself up for a fall?
Or Should I go with my heart and wait til I see him and continue hoping that he is really a nice guy and a potential boyfriend?

These last 6 days are going to go so slowly but at least now I can actually talk to him.
XxX

I don't think there's any potential there! Seems quite disrespectful to me! Surely it'd be better to meet someone who treats you well, respects you and doesn't make you feel bad.

But in person he might be different???

Far be it for me to make judgements on your behalf. I'd only advise you that when you're making this decision, it might be better to base it on the things that have been said or done, rather than on the fairytale in your head.

That's not to say the fairytale can't be true. You just have to decide how much you're willing to risk on it actually coming off, and how likely it is to be true if there are things telling you otherwise.

Good luck, though. It can't do you any harm to find out as long as you're in control and know what you're doing/getting into.

Thank you hunny.
I am a bit of a fantasist and an idealist but I've been walked over so many times before I'll definitely make sure I'm in control!! (Well, as much as possible anyway!)

I'd follow ur heart. When u meet him he could be lovely but it could go the other way. I'd say the text is a big clue. xx
