Hello-
I am a Virgo with a Libra Ascendant and a Taurus Moon.A nearly divorced woman- with young children .
I have a dear friend - a Cancer also with a Libra Ascendant and an Aries Moon. A divorced man- teenage children .
We have been friends only -for several years. He went through a terrible divorce several years ago- had a very bad marriage . I always admired him- he is an outstanding and fine man and the most loving father I have ever seen.
My marriage was falling apart- despite my best efforts to save it. I am now getting divorced- been separated for awhile.
He and I were just...friendly at the beginning.
We became good friends.
In the past year- it was like I was hit by a bolt of lightening- the overwhelming attraction. I know it's mutual...the way he looks at me, his voice, he tries to help me and protect me. We share our sad stories and our secrets. We see- really see one another.
Honestly I am scared but am irresistibly drawn to this man- he is the most magnificent and honorable man I know- I honor him far and above all other men.
Of course we each have our own problems...
I think this may be- he may be the " Great Love" of my life. As we both have suffered in our previous relationships- he is - scared - as am I.
Any comments or advice would be appreciated. We are... only friends..... On the surface.However..it is much deeper.. Not sure how to proceed...do not want to lose him...but I am drawn to him like a magnet...it is an overpowering attraction ...the beauty of it...is that I already deeply love him...I know he feels the same....we are both scared of exposing our hearts. We have both been hurt badly ..we are both givers- nurturers - I have never had someone like me- by my side- strong , independent - wicked beautiful sense of humor- it almost could be ...sublime, delicious . I did not believe in soul mates...but I think I do now.
Sorry-
Question- do I move or try to move this relationship forward or do I wait for him to pursue me.
I do want him. He is the type - who likes the chase- and I am so straightforward. I like to flirt, but don't want to be disingenuous . Love is a game , I suppose . I am not really a game player.
I don't think so.
Life is a game . It depends on how you play. I would never tell him I think love is a game. That is something a neophyte might say. Men and woman approach love differently- most men like the chase- the chase IS a game.
