He is coming over this Sunday again. I thought I would make him breakfast with pancakes, eggs, and sausages. I asked him if he would like breakfast and am waiting for his response. We chat daily. He works daily on the weekdays. He is doing well. I am happy for him. I really like him and am happy to have met him. He is a good man. I hope we turn into a couple. Only time will tell.

He said he would come over for breakfast for Sunday. He said he is tired from working all week and would sleep today which is Saturday. I am happy!

Today did not start out great but ended well. He was about 1.5 hours late. At first, I told him if he did not want breakfast, then he did not have to eat it. Then, I realized the last time we met he was also 30 minutes late but 1.5 hours late is a stretch for me.However, we communicated and I forgave him and he came. He was happy and ate whatever I cooked. I made him pancakes, sausages, fried eggs, salad, and coffee. He ate more than I thought. He seemed touched that I cooked for him. I don't know the reason for this. He and I talked and hugged etc. So, we had a good time. He went home earlier than last time because it is raining here and he needs to get up early tomorrow for work, so do I. He also wants to meet my dad who is coming next week but truthfully this is only the second time we met, and I'm still trying to get to know him well. My father will be shocked I found someone who is decent and nice. He won't believe me until he meets this new man. I am happy but don't want to rush things although we are not young. I really like him and believe we will make it as a couple.

Remember in Japanese culture it's,rude to leave food on your plate. Just so you don't feed the poor guy til he pops. :-D

I scared my new man with my hypergraphia. I feel bad but invited him to breakfast on Saturday. I'm not sure he will come. I will wait for his answer. I want to make pancakes again, eat yogurt, mueslix cereal, banana, have coffee, and drink almond milk. Strange breakfast but this is what I want to eat with him. We shall see.

We met again. He ate breakfast with me then we went to the garden park and enjoyed the scenery. Since my father is coming, we won't see each other for two weeks. I will miss him!

IMO the most important is that you have an honest morally upright reason for whatever you do. At least that's what a woman wants. So if he's got only sex on the mind then he may not get far with you. Even a kiss should have meaning behind it.

So, we met again last weekend and had lunch together. He talked a lot and was happy. I was happy to listen. We had a good time together. Hopefully, we will meet again this weekend too.

I've read all your past posts and it sounds like he is a decent guy. Especially if he hasn't been pressuring you to have sex. The first date with my husband lasted about 10 hours as well. We just had so much to talk about. I wish you the best and keep us posted. Sounds like a great love story just take your time getting to know each other.

Thank you very much!! He comes over each weekend. We spend most of our time talking. We don't have sex. We kiss and hug occasionally. He is decent. I will continue seeing him. At times, I wonder if his meeting my parents would scare him. It probably would. They are not open-minded and are rather isolated. They don't like anybody I meet. They never accepted anybody I met as friends etc. I am hoping he does not want to meet my parents too soon. He did say he would meet my father when my father came. However, I did not want him to meet my father so soon because my father is not nice to anybody and would probably scare him. Eventually, I will ask my parents to meet him. For now I will be happy as it is.

I'm afraid it is over between us. I had a problem with my situation and asked him for help. He is reluctant to help me so he is no friend to me. I am ending it with him and am glad to have realized his true character. I need help and he said he would think about it. If he needs to think that hard about helping me then we are not friends.

I’m sorry but this doesn’t make sense. Everything was going so well as of yesterday and in less than 24 hrs you are willing to call it quits?
What is this problem that he won’t help you with?
Is it something where you need him to be there physically, mentally, emotionally?
What’s his reason why he can’t be there for you?
Does it interfere with his work schedule, or does it deviate from the regular meeting times you guys had prior to this problem arising?

I am impatient and am stressed out from my family's situation. I am giving him time to respond but am irritable from my own situation. I will give him the benefit of the doubt. I like him much but understand my illness and situation are blinding me from seeing him as he really is. I think he is having difficulty understanding what I wrote so am giving him time to read and think about it. I like him very much but am angry at my family for making me stressed out. I have no patience now with anybody but need to calm down. I will give him more time to respond and see what happens.

He sent me a smiley face. I don't know if he understood what I wrote or is telling me it is ok based on telling him that I did not want to let my situation interfere with our relationship. So, it's lost in translation so to speak. I will let it go for now. What else can I do?

I am unhappy with him and will let him go. I was using skype to contact him but changed my account and will no longer use the previous account. I know I sound nuts and probably am. However, I am not happy with him and really don't want to be bothered by him anymore. I feel he wanted to use me for speaking English and for free meals. I don't need him that much and realize that being alone is not that bad. I am free to do what I want and don't need a man to make me happy. I will keep busy with my tasks and job and be happy it was not any worse.

Well things can definitely get “lost in translation “ when It comes to written messages, whether it’s via texting or email. I read a little bit of your background with your parents. It sounds like a heavy situation. Timing is everything in relationships and perhaps it’s just not the right time for you right now to be in one. And that’s okay.
This guy obviously saw something valuable in you that he would drive to see you every weekend. If possible on your part try to have a conversation with him about it (in person preferably) and try to maintain a friendship with him. You never know what the future may hold.

I slept all day yesterday and feel much better now. Yesterday,he wished me well, but I was sleeping. I am still chatting with him on the same skype account. I feel rested now and feel we will overcome this situation. I will continue chatting with him and if he still wants to see me, we will meet again. I worked everyday last week and also on an emergency basis. It was stressful but I made it through somehow. This week I am hoping to have more days relaxing than working. I am hoping to see him again soon after relaxing some more. Thank you for your message!

Sounds like y'all bonded over racial stereotypes.
