Yep, Johnson, good advice. I'm aware about texting "what's wrong?" appearing to be needy, thus the entire day lacking any notes to one another. I didn't bother him again.
"Hook, line and sinker" yep. For me, that's a bit scary as my marriage was abusive. What I learned about my personal experience is that narcicists often shower someone new with attention b/c they like the responding attention they get back and that once they've hooked someone, they no longer seek to "get" that person and things slow down or settle down. Not that that in and of itself forsees an abusive relationship, not at all, but coming from what i've been thru, it's a small red flag of the possibility existing.
So, I'm going about my day and my future plans with the thought of "with him or without him" because by now I am very independent emotionally.
Also, I wanted to add that this is not the first relationship I've had since my divorce. I had a few "practice" relationships first. Ones that I knew had no future but were great in that I learned about myself in each one and practiced the art of being single again. Only this time, at a much older age. It's all good.
