I haven't posted in awhile. I guess I need to just see my thoughts in print and maybe get a little feedback in the process. Just to recap; I am a Virgo DOB 9-7-67 and he is a Capricorn DOB 1-16-76. We are neighbors. I ended a 2 year relationship a little over a year ago. His marriage ended about this time last year to a woman he had been with since 8th grade. They share custody of a 7 year old boy. He and I met a month after I moved into my apartment with my daughter at her insistance. So, this past Christmas. We hit it off immediately. We have yet to go out on what he calls a "date", but he has cooked me dinner many times. We have watched movies, hot tubbed-alone and with the kids. I have met his parents and this weekend, I met his best friend. He is slowly introducing me to his "private" life. He shares peices of himself he never shared with his exwife, so to me that says he is more comfortable with me than he ever was with her-he feels like he can be himself. I have seen/been told on this board to not put so much into what he says but more what he does. At times, that is very hard. Take this weekend. He and I got to spend a lot of alone time together. We ended up spending the past 2 nights together, the first at his place, the next at mine. This says a lot to me, as we have been seeing each other since Christmas and even though we have been sleeping together, we hadnt yet spent the night together. Some of the things he said this weekend really have me thinking his walls are coming down and he is trusting me more and is possibly seeing this thing between us as something that may develop into an official relationship. He does the typical tests that Caps are famous for. Likes his alone time and displays the hot/cold moods. Today, he was looking into my eyes..as he so regularly does and he says you are beautiful, just absolutely beautiful. He has said this a few times before, then he quickly distracts himself to sort of pull himself back to reality from the trance he was just in. Then a little later, again looking at me he tells me I am so incredible and he is going to keep saying it. And then... he says, can you imagine looking into each others eyes 60 years from now? First I am taken by surprise that he said that outloud, as he usually does a pretty good job of keeping stuff that would come close to referring to us being an "us" by any means possible even stopping mid-sentence and changing the subject.
