She has kids to think about, not only herself. At 44 years old she probably knows better than to let some guy come swoop her off her feet, uproot her kids and her whole life without really knowing what she is getting into. If she feels even the slightest bit of hesitation, it’s probably for good reason and she is smart to listen to it.
If she didn’t have kids it would be a different story. I would encourage her to take risks. But she’s a package deal, therefore her life will revolve around those kids. Not Mr. Right Now Charming.

"Talked herself into dating a bit...refusing to fall hard for this guy. Yet getting to close or at least too much time with a current prospect."
^^^^I don't understand the above....is she getting too close to another guy? Is that you? 😉
No matter how good someone is "on paper", he could be wrong for her on many other levels. Let her question her future with him, every single day, anxiety or not! Better sooner rather than later, after she quit her job, her local friends and uprooted herself and her child. Is she even in love with this guy....?
I put myself more into his shoes (without the wealth and celebrity friends, lol). This is because my last relationship was with someone who also lived 300 miles away. He started to sabotaje the relationship about the time I asked him to come live with me. As much as he upset me, I understand.

How do you know that she's spending too much time with the new prospect? And why does that even matter if things are going well with her dream guy 300 miles away?
Nothing really matters until words lead to actions with the dream guy. That dude is long distance, and until she is moving in, she should keep dating.
Waiting on a man doesn't get people far. A man can say anything.

Yeah, I agree. I don’t understand either how do you find the time with children. They should be a priority.
I don’t have any, so it is easier to find the time for everything else. But I am sure many women somehow manage it all. Superwomen!click to expand

@Lostthoughts
Do you have feelings for your friend?

Posted by LadyNeptune
Ok maybe its just me but I think he might be doing the oversell and that's always a bit cringe and red flaggy. Who brags about themselves having celebrity neighbors on a first date when they should be getting to know you... if they are really interested.
Idk if I am just jaded or overexposed, using celebrities as a flex point in kinda lame. The lamest actually. When someone leads with making their life sound perfect its definitely dear john vibes. Dude is 300 miles away. Or is he?
That Dear John series was fun tho. He's a veteran doctor who makes you smoothies every day. But really is a druggie unemployed and camping in his sisters mobile home. Good times.
Those guys are always "too good to be true" and target financially successful lonely single moms. Easy to play a character from 300 miles away. She's right to be cautious especially pursuing something long distance.

The truth?, definitely soul mates. We are very supportive of each other in personal development and in life. There is genuine feelings and affection. Over all good compatibility and long term marriage or friendship comes natural. Astro wise, Moon-Venus and mars-moon moon-jupiter conjuctions. By all accounts excellent compatibility for marriage.
We get murky twice a year for the last 5 years for good reason. Nothing got off the ground because a mis match of a few core values in the past.
However again. Locked onto someone else. A different kind of connection. She has been though enough, I will not interfer with happiness with Mr. Right while I work this other out.click to expand

Also dating as a parent is completely different. You schedule dates and times out. Kids come first. You don't mess around when it comes to potential long term partners. Once a week a couple times a month and phone calls and texting.click to expand

Nope not a flex. It's more like it is what it is and he thinks nothing of it. She found out indirectly through a mutual friend who is facilitated the set up.
You are jaded. Caution is warranted only for the fact it's something that has to be hashed out eventually. However she is willing should things get serious enough and he has the means and ability to facilitate.

But let’s throw drama into life!
Otherwise she would just be a regular broad long distance dating!
If he is so into her as described - HE would console his Queen and make her at ease…unless she is just a regular psycho saboteur and in this case who TF cares!click to expand

Lol you should've led with the fact they have mutual friends in common. The way you worded things in your op seemed like he was a stranger who bragged about material items.

I have this friend for years. She is loving, kind, considerate, total giver. Strong personality empathic ex fucking model 44 years old. She is a single mother with a few friends she cares about( myself included).
Now the man of her dreams pops up and attracted to her as she is now. Amazing first date total firework. Oh ya makes 6 figures, does yoga, hikes, 2 daughters, very expressive and cheerful person. In his late 40s but would sweep 75% of woman on this planet off their feet. Romance book shit. The catch lives 300 miles away. Again if things go well she moves doen there in his mansion with his celebrity neighbors who drop by all the time. No fucking joke!!!
Oh ya he is really into her and has a very spiritual patient state of mind.
She is freaking the fuck out and had a real panic attack over this. Says she is more damaged then she thinks because of her freaking out. Talked herself into dating a bit...refusing to fall hard for this guy. Yet getting to close or at least too much time with a current prospect.
I talked to you over text and explained what she is doing and she agreed and even acknowledged everything she had she is happy about. She is afraid of rocking her boat. I see it as a addition. So ladies. . put yourself in her shoes, How would you like me to slap some sense into you? Do you need slapping? or let you play this out?
Yes I'm dead serious. This is fucking real. I think I'm getting mad at her over this.
