I wasn't really trying to date this person. I met her in a support group. I found out that she has depression as I do with a bipolar kicker. She has confided with me, telling me that she has suicidal thoughts. I worry about her a lot and I do like her. She had a good heart. The bad part of her bipolar is 1 day she wants to hang out and the next she doesn't want anything to do with me. We're not serious by any means.
I won't lie. I like her a lot but I don't want to have a serious relationship with her because I don't want to go through another loss like I have already been through. I'm a widower. It's been a little over a year since I lost her. I miss having someone. I can't do casual sex. She has sort of hinted that she would like to have sex with me after about 3 weeks of knowing each other. We haven't even kissed yet. That's why I think she's looking for casual sex. I think that she doesn't really know what she wants in our relationship, hell I don't either but I think it wouldn't be a great idea to sleep with her. I know that I'm probably not ready for a relationship and I'm damn sure not ready for a fuck buddy. I have a lot of respect for this girl. She's been through a lot but so have I. I like spending time with her. I have some guy friends that have warned me about going to fast with her. They know how I was hurt.
I want to be her friend.
I want to help her out when she's down.
I don't want to loose our friendship.
I don't want her to find someone else if I choose not to have sex with her.
I don't really think she'll do that without telling about it because she thinks of me as a friend she can confide in, she knows that I like her a lot as a friend.
I think I could be her friend even if she starts dating but it'd be r rough.
I'm thinking to much.
I only post so I can get a little advice about my predicament before I screw things up.
