DEAR ABBY: I have been seeing a gentleman I'll call Clint for about a month. We are both divorced, in our early 40s and live 10 minutes apart. Clint has two children.
When Clint calls, I always make myself available -- even if it's 11 p.m. or later. He usually spends the night with me, then leaves first thing in the morning. My problem is he never wants to take me out anywhere, like to dinner and a movie. If he doesn't come to my house, I'll go to his -- and we always end up in bed.
Am I setting myself up for disappointment? Your thoughts, please. -- WANTING MORE IN BUFFALO
DEAR WANTING MORE: It depends on what you want from this relationship. You have described a bed partner, not a life partner. Tell Clint exactly how you feel about this arrangement. You'll know where this ship is heading by his reaction.
