My current boyfriend was my client. I felt he's falling for me, and because I had difficult situation with other client falling for me shortly before that, I tried firstly to scare him off. Asked him to be security buddy etc. He's passed with flying colours.
Now we are together, but we don't share the household. He stays a lot with me at my place, helps with anything I need help with, as much as he can. He's really supportive.
His income is bigger than mine, so there is no money issue. I have also no slightest suspicion, as if he was with my for sex only. I want it more than him many times LOL
We had once conversation about my job, he said clearly: I remember how I have met you and I cannot now ask you do give up only because I want. That would be selfish.
He says, he has the feeling, that he appeared in my life to make sure, I am safe. And he does. Makes me feel safe and supported.
I have no idea if it will last. I believe, as long as we are happy together, it is OK. Carpe diem.
