Posted by tizianiWe cuddle every time we are together. Hold both hands with fingers interlocked. Very comforting times. I'd say it's very physical. Not an issue for us. Saw each other 3 times this week.
Lack of physical affection? That's my experience when it comes to slow burners.

What's the nature of your physical relationship?

Posted by tizianilol I hopePosted by pinkbird03That puts an end to my theory! Good stuff for you both though.Posted by tizianiWe cuddle every time we are together.

dontttt give up!!!



Posted by CrabbyAJWe are just friends. That's all it was supposed to be. But it feels like more than friends. And it's all because of him. He leads everything, except texting 90% of the time. The guy is even putting in his own wooden floors in his living room and he picked one that has my name in it, "****** oak" I feel like friendship comes first with him before something serious with him. We are very slowly getting closer and closer.
I'm not sure I understand.....you and your friend see each other frequently and are hysically intimate. Which part of this makes it a slow burner? Did I misunderstand the question?

Posted by SPUNKYTAURUSLol but we are just friends. Read the post above please.
This is not slow. You guys are enjoying each other's time, have been intimate, and are physical. Hun this is what a relationship supposed to be like. Plus y'all spent almost half the week together?
Man I'm so waiting for a chance to have this.

Posted by SPUNKYTAURUSHe said he's looking for friends, hanging out, and the sex is definitely nice too. But friends don't cuddle and kiss when sex is not involved. He definitely crosses the friendship boundaries. He even talked about getting me a birthday present. His words and actions don't match up. But his actions are better than his words. And he knows how I feel about him.Posted by pinkbird03Nope... don't ASSUME ANYTHING... without getting a straight answer. When me and the father of my kids were dating he made it official and I knew because he SAID it 3 months in. He told me he loved me and wanted to be together. don't take it for more than it is, because I've noticed lately men will make it seem as if y'all are a couple without saying so and then when you say "but you were doing all this with me" they say "you got your feelings caught up not me"Posted by SPUNKYTAURUSLol but we are just friends.

Take my advice. Unless it is talked about or said there is nothing else but a "good time" going on right now. Go with the flow and you will know your limit or it will move forward.

Sometimes men feel you're the one but not ready to say it because of the length of time... so go with the flow and enjoy it.Posted by SPUNKYTAURUSHe said he's looking for friends, hanging out, and the sex is definitely nice too.

Posted by pinkbird03Ahhhh earth and water. Especially with a Capricorn man lol... emotions are hard for them to express. So yes this may be saying that it's more than what it is because their actions means a lot (this is true to earth signs). And you being a cancer that is a lot of emotions... remember earth signs think logically not emotionally. So he will do more than he say. And when you express to him don't do it emotionally do it "logically" and you guys are gonna be just fine.Posted by SPUNKYTAURUSI'm a cancer and he's a Capricorn.

Posted by SPUNKYTAURUSThat makes sense. I think I can show him by doing things. Do you think buying him a picture for his living room is a good idea? He is remodeling it and is always asking me what to do decoratively because he loves my apartment and he thinks I'm good at decorating.Posted by pinkbird03Ahhhh earth and water.

Posted by pinkbird03Yes things he can "use" would be great (a tie, pots if he cooks, picture frame, pillows, etc) logical gifts. You're on the right track Hun.Posted by SPUNKYTAURUSThat makes sense.

Posted by Scorpio123We are friends. If it was just fwb we would only be hooking up. We don't always hook up. We hang out, share a lot of personal things, talk everyday, he cooked me dinner once, he's getting me a birthday present, and he knows what I want. But I'm okay with being friends like this for now. Not forever and he knows that. He shows signs of jealousy and has said he doesn't want to share me. So I agree it's more of a fwb situation than a relationship but I do think he likes me too.
Exactly, you aren't friends nor a couple. Definitely a fwb kind of thing. You need to tell him what you really want.

Posted by ScorpFemmeYes I did, but I thought it would only be sex. Not everything else.
How did you get pulled into the whole just friends but with sex scenario if you obviously want a relationship? Did you agree to being just friends? This sounds more like an fwb than a slow burner. If you want to be more than friends, you may need to set that boundary. If you already agreed to being friends who have sex, that may be difficult. It would involve taking the risk of losing this guy.

I'm involved in a relationship that I don't understand. All my prior dating experiences has been very straightforward. So I'm just trying to figure this one out. I'm the emotional type so sometimes I overthink it because this man is confusing and feel like I can't handle it all and then others times I really enjoy the ride because it is nice to get to know someone without pressure and it's just always a good time with him.
