Okay so, I’ll try be concise.
I started dating someone at the start of the year for about 6 weeks, then COVID happened and he had to leave the state back home. We kept in touch all year, FaceTimed every couple months, texted, shared big life updates ect. We knew we wanted to stay in touch and we knew we were still at least attracted to each other, even though we had become friends.
We both even dated someone else briefly halfway through the year, but both of those relationships failed.
He invited me to his state for a holiday the other week, and I booked my flights and went! We planned 1 week together road tripping in his van going on amazing adventures.
It was the first time I saw him in 9 months. We were so overjoyed. We had sex the first night and it was fantastic.
We spent 2 nights together, being intimate, lounging around on the beach, catching up over wine and joints and holidaying with a few of his friends.
Then suddenly, we awoke to news that COVID had suddenly popped up in the state again, and my mum was urging me to leave immediately and cut the trip short. We were extremely depressed and tried to think of how I could stay.
He invited me to his family Christmas even and said he was excited at the prospect of being stuck with me for many weeks if the boarders closed.
Unfortunately though, I booked a flight to leave to avoid quarantining.
We spent one more night together just us 2, exploring his city and eating good food. We cuddled and kissed and both whined about me having to go.
He said he would be extremely sad that our time was cut short.
So I left and we had a big sad farewell at the airport.
After 30 mins alone at the airport he texted that he missed me already.
We’ve been texting since then and he’s been saying as soon as the boarders open I need to come back to him ASAP.
He said his sleeping has been bad because he expects me to be snuggled up to him.
The thing is that we never had a discussion about what we are, and I think that’s partly because we know we can’t commit to something yet and also because our time together was cut short, perhaps we would’ve talked about it if we spent longer together.
He also gave me a painting he made with a special note for me attached to it.
And he said me coming to see him was extremely special and the highlight of his year despite it being short.
Also on a side note, when we were out for beers we ran into a girl that hates me due to friendship issues. I jokingly said I should’ve gone over and tried to find some dirt on him, and he also jokingly said “you should’ve gone over and said, I’ve just started dating this guy, what do you think of him?”
And I wasn’t sure if that was a reflection of what we thought we were doing (dating), or what he hopes we will do someday, or if it literally meant nothing at all.
Anyway, what do you think, am I just an intimate friend or do you think he views me as something more?
TLDR: COVID has prevented me and him from dating throughout the year, but we’ve kept in touch and I went to visit him recently and we had a lovely time, but now I’m unsure what he wants from me.
