libra man - next step

hi everyone,

needed some advice from the libra women on this forum. I am libra womam (10/11) in a “relationship of sorts “ with a libra man (10/10) 6 years younger to me. He is 22 and I am 28.

The reason am writing is I had two previous relationships ( scorpio and capricorn) which did not end well. Infact, the relationship with the capri was so exhausting and emotionally draining that I did not really pursue any guy or wasnt interested in any relationship and was content alone for a long time after it ended

I met the libran guy 8 months ago and we really hit it off. It started off easy and we were friends and I never had romantic feelings for him when we met. I just enjoyed talking to him for hours without feeling pressured.Then I fell sick and he was really there for me( bad moods, ups and down, needing space and my venting and going cold..i know all my faults) and he handled everything with more maturity than I ever expected from a guy that age.

I love him but haven’t told him. He says stuff like I love u all the time. Now, he wants us to go away together for a weekend. Part of me is excited and I really feel a connection with this guy( never expected that with another libran) but the mature part of me is wary about going ahead because I am afraid it will not end well cuz he is younger and I may really lose a good friend in the bargain and get hurt.

Any advice on how to handle this? sorry for the long post but I couldn’t talk to my friends about him because I dont think they would understand

i think you have to think about what is more important and what you are more willing to lose.

is the friendship more important or the potential for more?

are you willing to lose this guy if it all turns to shit or are you more willing to lose the opportunity of what could be a great relationship?

in terms of getting hurt, it's part of being alive and it's the price you have to pay (the price of admission) of having a relationship with another person. you can keep yourself wrapped up so nothing ever hurts you but you forgo so much by not experiencing those other aspects of life (which includes getting hurt) .

it really is in the scales of what weighs heavier for you. you might not be ready yet to take the plunge. you might want to remain in a state of safety and just enjoy his company for now. there's nothing wrong with that either. it's just a matter of where you are in your life and what you want out of it at this point.
