Yes, so it's been 10 months since I met my Leo at work. Right from the go get, we've been pretty much inseparable both at work and away from there, there are so many ways in which we get along, we share the same views on life, enjoy all the same things and have the same deep passions about life. I wasn't really attracted to him physically at the start, we were just friends getting closer and helping each other to heal over previous relationships and self awareness issues. He was also due to go away near the end of the year travelling and working, so it was jsut that, friends. About 2 months into it though, I started feeling that something else was going on...he had obviously told colleagues at work about me and anyway everyone had noticed the way we were always together, like magnets. But his closer friends started making comments in joke about 'my other half' and things like that. Everyone that asked me about him didn't believe me when I said we were just friends. I started to see him in a different light and the attraction for him just seemed to hit me like a bolt of lightening. I didn't say anything to him for a few weeks but the signs were also there from him and I wondered if they always had been but I hadn't seen them. I started flirting subtly with him and we talked on Facebook about things (I posted about it here as well) , but he told me that he wasn't ready for an intimate relationship and was afraid that he would mess up the closest friendship that he'd ever had with anyone. I tried to accept this and we went on, spending more time together, him cooking for me so I had food when I got home, staying the evening, talking, watching films and then he would sleep on the sofa. Fast forward to a few days ago on his birthday. He invited me out, I assumed with his friends, but when I got there, he was with his family and they welcomed with with open arms, all knowing my name and a lot about me already. We met up with his mates briefly after a few hours with his family but he took my hand and lea me out of that pub and to a club where we danced and had some more drinks. Something shifted then. We were dancing without taking our eyes off each other. Hugging while he told me how much he was going to miss me. Yeh, the drink helped, but he admitted he hadn't been able to express his feelings to me before. we stood at the edge of the dance floor with our arms around each other for a long time, then danced a bit before leaving. We walked out hand in hand and after he'd eaten we walked to my place, his arm around my shoulder, walking slow and talking about everything. He kept stopping to hug me. When we got to mine I started sorting out the sofa bed but he pulled me down to him and kissed me passionately. It lead to us going to bed and making love for the next 2 hours and it was the tenderest experience ever, lots of deep eye contact, caressing and kissing, kissing, kissing. Amazing. He said so too, he was so happy.
