What to do?
I found out this year that my wife wanted a divorce. There’s a background story to it, but it came as a shock to me. Anyways, she went bitter, and I’ve lost everything I had built up. I ended up moving out, leaving everything behind.
I ended up going on a singles website, about 5 months ago, just to find someone to chat to. I hadn’t planned for anything more. I ended up talking to this really nice woman near enough right away, and ended up talking for hours on the phone with her. Everything seemed to be going well and we were getting close, then suddenly she decided that all she wanted was friendship. And that she had just come out of a relationship, that I didn’t know about before.
So I said ok, and tried to pull back and just be her friend. This is the bit I’m finding difficult. We now get along, but every now and then, she seems to start an argument just so she can pull back more. Then we end up making up, and staying friends again. Then she’ll throw hints out that she wants more then friendship, then pull back again.
Frankly I don’t think it would be a good time for either of us to start a relationship with anyone, never mind each other. Though there does seem to be a strong attraction between us both. As in the last time we met, she kissed me more than once and wanted me to sleep with her. I said no, and that took a lot of will power. After we fell asleep, I left because I was very confused. She phoned me later telling me that she didn’t remember any of our time together.
I’ve been kinda rude to her since, because I find it hard to believe that she didn’t remember any of it.
I find myself missing her though, and yet I don’t miss my ex. I’m very unsure on what to do, and I think I might have messed up the friendship anyways.
Any ideas on what to do?
