    met a guy just over a year ago from a dating site, we got on straight away, he looked slightly older than his photos but still gorgeous and utterly charming and we clicked

    before I go any further, I will tell you that he is 'wired differently' to most guys and has mental health issues which appear to be more of a problem for him than me

    he was surprised I wanted to meet him again and wanted to take me to the cinema which would have been lovely but due to family commitments he couldn't see me at weekends and I was just new in my job so could not take time off work to see him during the week

    I think he took that to mean I was not interested in dating but we did spend time together at his home

    but it was always me doing the running, not all the time, just occasionally, he has to be prompted with everything and I mean everything but hes so worth it

    he has been by himself for a long time and I understand why, he is totally clueless

    I was in a long relationship before and ive been enjoying the single life for a year now, ive learnt a lot about myself and my capabilities, ive learnt patience

    I could easily go and 'claim' him but I don't know what is stopping me, don't know what I'm scared of

    if I haven't made my situation clear please feel free to ask questions and I will elaborate

    What, never?

    Start by giving more detail of his situation, and why you haven't "claimed him" yet?

    Sounds a bit "Historical Romance" a la Barbara Cartland :rotfl:

  • Or he could be lost
    Makes sense
    He's a 'boy'
    And claiming him implies some sort of retrieval system
    For children who get lost at large functions
