It can work that way for you, if that is what you both want.

Part of making a relationship work, is compromise, but it has to be by both people. Take small steps, see how it feels, then decide whether to back up, stay there for awhile, or take the next small step....... wash - rinse - repeat :-)

We're were like that TS, before we both moved to Vancouver. I bought my own home about 6 months before he entered into my life. I had sort of 'given up' meeting any special guy in my life.

But after knowing him more, it was really a matter of independence and personal pride for me to keep, live in for several years and pay for my own home. I'm so glad I did this..it was important to me ..for self-growth.

When there is no biological ticking...you have tons of time to know each other.
