When I first read this I thought you were trying to loan yourself to a couple - which just seemed weird.

I've been with my husband since 1983 - certainly not a loner. However, if you find someone who makes you happy and brings joy to your life, I think you should enjoy it. For however long it lasts.

Why does something have to change now? Can't you continue as more than casual friends? Have you said anything to him about how you feel? If he knows you at all, he's going to know about your previous loner status. Talking about how you're excited and happy but also nervous and concerned about the future might help.

My husband is my best friend. He hears all my weirded out thoughts. Poor guy...
