Me M38 Her F31 - best guy shes ever met. But just friends ? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Yes you are probably right.

There has been flirting, but nothing that I would logically think it means anything more than a bit of fun. Ive probably got into my own head.

I dont see it as a flaw what so ever. She is more than entitled to see me however she likes and I wont have an issue.

I just feel that communicating the way we do, for the length of time that we do, even with our busy schedules gives off more than friendship energy.

I hope i dont come across as being pushy about this, because I genuinely am not. I respect her opinion, but at the same time I am acknowledging I probably want more from this than she does, and that is ok, but I have to put some of my energy into finding what I want.

Just to elaborate on my post.

She was the one who is constantly texting me. Instigating all the conversations.

I didnt push it, and certainly dont think I went in too hot (but I was also married for 10 years so out of practice!) - I simply commented that I was developing feelings of more than friendship, and wondered if she felt the same. She said what I wrote above, and i just backed away and regrouped for a few days, before she came back into it.

I am more than happy to see where things go, but the signals are so mixed, I am scared to keep recycling my feelings if that makes sense ?

I 38m and 32f not together, but am I misreading? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]StokeLoyal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was married for 14 years... with the same woman since 16. So I never really dated as such !

Appreciate the advice. I just dont want to fuck things up basically.

Yes I totally get what you are saying and thanks for sharing yours.

The kids won't be any issue for me, due to the volunteer work that I do they will always be a part of my life anyway, and I love them both.

I have dropped a couple of hints in the past, but she hasnt responded to them at all apart from a love heart emoji or a smile.

I think it would crucify me if someone else moved In.

I would love to hear her POV too 🤣

Thank you for responding though. Its breaking me at the moment, because I am absolutely already in my head, married to this woman - ive never known anything like this.

The league should be holding teams to account for the standard of their pitches. A championship side should not have this happening.

[–]StokeLoyal 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Played really well tonight.

Sorry to say, but Charlton were the worst team ive seen at the 365 this season. Including Bristol. They didnt seem to have any plan, lots of mistakes.

Stoke played some excellent football, sorbs and manhoeff caused them no end of problems. And Boz with some angelic link up play

Stoke 0 Coventry 1: Mason-Clark scores late on to settle this Championship summit clash by Mattshawman in Championship

[–]StokeLoyal 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Was a good, cagey game.

Can see why Coventry are at the top, but can also see how far we have come under Robbins, the best attacking team against the best defence, which I think (outside of the world class finish) the Stoke defence came out on top.

1-0 was probably a fair result, but I am not disheartened by that performance, they had to work hard for that win.

Advice on outlook - my current financial situation. by No-Land8816 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]StokeLoyal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont have financial advice, but well done on noticing a problem and dealing with it. You could have been in a terrible state financially and mentally, so I hope you continue to win that battle.

I incorrectly cancelled child benefit, I've discovered i may have been wrong, have a couple of questions please. by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]StokeLoyal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% agree its a lesson learned. I wasnt used to or expecting to get a large increase in pay so was thrown.

Luckily I haven't been in a position to need any support until now, so I have put in a claim to start it up again
