View Profile History	TAKE IT SLOW? Posted : 22 Sep, 2010 08:25 PM means we aren't all that interested, but interested enough to make you think there is something there, in case we want to pursue it sometime, thus why things go slow.:ROFL: Post Reply
Tulip89 View Profile History	TAKE IT SLOW? Posted : 22 Sep, 2010 09:02 PM In my case, if I say I want to take things slow, it really means I want to take things slow. I will be very intentional about getting time with you, but I'll also intentionally limit it to once or twice a week until we're really sure we want to make things official. Even then, we have to be careful how much time we spend together, since going from "hi" to hanging out 5+ nights a week never ends well. Post Reply
View Profile History	TAKE IT SLOW? Posted : 22 Sep, 2010 09:21 PM My boyfriend and I are taking things really slow and I'm pretty sure he's really interested in me. I hope you're not right, Loony. Maybe some guys are like that but I don't think mine is. Post Reply

That would be like putting all your eggs in one basket, because unless actually have physically been in each other's presence, this all could be an illusion. Haha, I've had alot of those illusions, poof gone, and I wondered what happened, I don't play that type of game anymore. Post Reply
View Profile History	TAKE IT SLOW? Posted : 23 Sep, 2010 01:33 AM I trust him more than that. And he's looking for a job out here. He wouldn't be doing that if he wasn't genuinely interested. He also wouldn't be putting up w/ the pregnant version of me if he wasn't genuinely interested. He truly cares about me =) Post Reply
View Profile History	TAKE IT SLOW? Posted : 23 Sep, 2010 07:48 AM Sometimes things get rushed and you don't get to know the person as well or the way you'd like to when it's like that. Slow down and actually let the relationship stuff like trust and respect grow naturally as opposed to forcing things or rushing through and skipping. It's not bad when some one says that. Just play it cool. Post Reply
View Profile History	TAKE IT SLOW? Posted : 23 Sep, 2010 08:27 AM I think DeeDee understands the concept of taking things slow. I think her question is what would make guys feel like they are being rushed. Not everyone is the same, and we do not all feel �pushed� for the same reason. DeeDee, I think that this would be an excellent opportunity for you to find out if he is willing to be patient, open and honest with you. I think that you should ask him in what way does he feel that you are pushing things along too quickly. Truthfully, all we can do speculate, the best person to ask is him. Post Reply
View Profile History	TAKE IT SLOW? Posted : 23 Sep, 2010 09:47 AM It could mean a number of things. Perhaps, they don't want to rush into marriage, or they aren't interested as has been mentioned a few times already. I've never said it before, so I have no idea why I would say it if I do say it.:rolleyes: Post Reply
