Take it one step at a time

Dear Mrs.  Figgins:

Jamie and I met online, two years ago.  We live in different states but see each other on special holidays throughout the year.

My kids are grown and live about a  12 hour drive away. 

He invited me to live with him, but when I declined he offered to move my way.  He wants us to each sell our current home and buy a house close to my kids.    

Everyone in my family likes Jaime, but not everyone thinks it’s a good move for me to sell my house.

The word marriage hasn’t come up yet, but who needs that at this stage?

I love him and I don’t need the negative comments.

Celia

 

Dear Celia:

I’m sure Jamie is a nice man – but since the “marriage” word hasn’t come up, I suggest you dip your toe rather than jump in with both feet.

Considering the current real estate market, why don’t you rent out your place and rent a place with Jamie.  This way can take time to find out what isn’t possible to learn over the wires.

If Jaime wants to sell his place that’s his problem (or rather,  choice).  

Remember that “fools rush in”.

Mrs. Figgins
