He's Away For Two Months And We Just Started Dating

Good Morning guys,

My name’s Amanda and I just started seeing this guy. Let’s call him Dave, for now. So, we a few months ago and we have talked quite a bit, showed interest in each other. But, we only recently began “seeing each other” in his words, two weeks ago. In this short time, it felt like we really connected. We went out to eat, had a drink, we talked. We have so much in common. He played footsie with me under the table all night and then, we went to this romantic little bar, where we sat in candlight and continued to talk. After that, he took me to this private place, where we kissed, among other things. From there, we went on two more amazing dates, where we talked and got closer, more intimate. We haven’t had sex yet, which he may not love. But, he said that he understood if I wasn’t ready. That he didn’t want me to feel uncomfortable with him.

The problem is that he’s a tour manager for this travelling ballet and he left town yesterday for two months. We never really defined what we are to each other. He said that we should wait until he comes back to see if the whole girlfriend/boyfriend thing will work. He also told me that he considers me a friend and that he really likes me, but he’s not the best at commitment. He’s the tupe of guy who is very simple, doesn’t overthink things and just goes with how he feels. He uses words like make love and intimate. Which makes it hard for me to read him.

I just need to know, what should I do. I want to ask him how to go about thos two month separation. He said we could keep on contact, but I’m always the one to text or message first. He answers right away, yes… I just don’t know of I should message him or wait for him to get a hold of me. Or if he will just wait until January for contact.

Please help!
