'W' travels a lot for all his Board meetings. He also has family in San Francisco and on the east coast. When he was gone he text me every night and emailed me every day. But when he was in Seattle, we always went out to nice restaurants. Most of the time he paid, but sometimes I insisted. One Wednesday night I invited him to meet me at the Icon Grille.
Wednesday night is 1/2 price Washington wine night. Also the Icon honors the Passport card. I'm a Passport member. This means I buy one dinner, I get one free. So, while 'W' pays between $500 and $1000 for dinner, I paid about $60 including tip!
After a couple months of dating we met at Martins for late drinks. I thought everything was going really good. But he starts the evening out by saying, "We need to talk".
There has never been anything good happen after these words were spoken. He tells me that by now we should have deeper feelings for each other.
HUH?
After two months of dating we should be ready to make a committment, and I'm just not feeling that.
Wow!, I never saw this coming.
So now what? I ask.
What I'd really like to do, is to continue going to dinner and have sex. What do you think?
He then gets up to go to the bathroom, "think about it".
It was so weird - it seemed like the whole world stopped. It was like a bad movie. People stopped talking, everything was frozen in time. I looked around the room and no one was even breathing.
My mind was racing, what is going on? why is this happening? I thought everything was going perfect. I would never meet another guy like 'W' again. I probably would never find anyone to even date me again. I felt so alone. This was my station in life.
The world started revolving again when a waiter brought a birthday cake and lit candles to the table behind us. I turned around and saw the cutest Asian couple celebrating a birthday.
"Who's birthday is it?"
The guy said, it's her birthday.
Happy Birthday.
You two make such a cute couple.
Oh we aren't a couple - I'm gay and she's my friend.
Really!!! my name is Rick.
Hi, I'm 'S'
Here's my card, call me sometime.
'W' then came back. I had my answer.
Sure, your plan sounds great.
Until Next Time - Wise OUT

he now just wants to continue to have expensive dinners and sex with you? where is this guy? i want to meet him! LOL! sounds PERFECT!
if you refused his conditions then i probably would have come over to the mcgee building right now, find you in your cubicle and proceed to slap the sh*t out of you
yeah i remember your telling me about this guy before and how JEALOUS i was! and now i know who you were on a date with at the time you met 'S'. very interesting!
certainly this was not a comedy nor a tragedy...it was a gift from the gay gods!
I dunno... if after 2 months one of the two people is basically informing the other about their "script" in relationships, you gotta wonder what the rest of the script is.
What happens after 4 months? 6 months? 1 year?
Are you "scheduled" to be pregnant after one year? LOL
If the sex and dinners are great and you two have a wonderful time together, I would explain your views on relationships and dating if you have not already. He may be on a completely different "plane" that you are.
That is - if you really want this to move forward or just simply enjoy it until it runs it's course.
It sounds like he may be looking for something more...
