Sounds like you're writing my story
[QUOTE=Fishdude;2790462]I've been in the hobby a long time now and time goes by fast. Yep there've been a hundred I suppose?? I have issues. Definitely there've been some that I feel different about than others. It's a wam bam thank you maam, or sometimes you have a nice conversation before or after or during.
Right now I have a UTR that I've had to sort out my feelings for. At one point, I know that I had ideas about our relationship that weren't realistic. But we have a level of comfort with each other that neither of us feels by hooking up with someone on BP for the first and only time for example. Hh visits are more like 2 hrs. We hang out and talk. I'm probably sort of a father figure to this one. Hell, it could be grandfather figure. I'm glad I have her. I don't cruise BP anymore and she doesn't post there either. I get some things from being around this one that I haven't gotten from the others and keeping her at the right distance is the balancing act. And she's got some drama.
I've let some of them in too close and really been burned. Now I've got some perspective that this is way better than picking up a SW, but will just end at some point and both of us will walk off in different directions which is no big deal, that's just how it works. You need to have a thick skin doing this. But we're all human and human interactions and relationships can be all sorts of different things. Just have to be real about what's really happening. I'm enjoying this one for what it is and while it lasts. Maybe I'll have another one like this and maybe I never will.

I to have a current UTR that balancing our feelings or at least mine has been at times very difficult. Definitely a learning experience for me as this is the first time I've had anything like this. Often our visits last most of the day and there's been talk of overnights and extended periods as well. I often have to remind myself that it could end any day at any time. In the meantime I am truly enjoying it. I see experiences like this being few and far between, possibly a once-in-a-lifetime.
Jeez, HBO could make quite a documentary
