I am in a relationship that we are taking slow. We want to let our
hearts lead us. But I want to know ow do you handle not being able to be
close to them when you want to be?

When I was married my husband traveled a lot for months at a time, when
our marriage was still good. I actually loved him being gone as it made
it that much special and made me appriciate him more when he came back
home.
Long distant relationships are rough, that is why I will not get
involved with one.
I have a date Sat and he is just 45 minutes away and I think that might
even be to far for me.

Whisper,,,
Distance and/or the lack of seeing someone should be the bases for
Building this Unconditional Trust and support in order
to build a relationship of Love,,, Wanting to be close to
someone or needing to be close to that person does not always have to be
skin to skin,, Learning someones Soul and thier desires and needs is the
stepping stones to reaching that closeness that you desire... Little
steps,,, create a beautiful picture....

PSSSSS: use your Imagination !!!! The mind is a beautiful thing...

In my usual "different" way, I didnt think of it as "being physically
close" or "sperated by distance". I thought she meant 'how do you gently
deal with getting emotionally intimate without it getting overwhelming'
I got that sense from her first sentance "...taking it slow, letting our
hearts out"

Did I mis-understand? Wouldnt be the first time... might explain why
there's only one pillow in this bed... ha ha
