Exactly. And I want a family one day, with or without a partner. And I don't think he'd ever care for it.

[momstheword]

Then I suppose it's a question of how long you wish to have this relationship.

[protective_logic]

Well, we aren't dating so I guess it's not really a relationship?

[momstheword]

Ah, I see. Then, whatever term you wish to use for it.

[protective_logic]

One shouldn't stay with someone who is not longterm relationship potential, right?

[momstheword]

It sounds like they're good for the moment. It's whether or not you'd rather break it off now and look or wait until someone who is long term material comes along and then break off.

[protective_logic]

Isn't that cruel to him?

[momstheword]

What does he know of the situation?

[protective_logic]

He has no clue that I'm hopelessly confused over him. We're 'friends with benefits.' My suggestion, not his.

[momstheword]

Any guesses how emotionally involved he is?

[protective_logic]

He's my friend. My best friend. He's supportive and nice. But really, none with a relationship. Clearly.

[momstheword]

Then he might not be too bothered.

[protective_logic]

Good point.

[momstheword]

Obviously you know him better than I do, but that's my thoughts.

[protective_logic]

Thank you for them.

[momstheword]

You're welcome. I'm happy to help if I can.
