[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP - no one can know the future, but the present situation is a good indication of what the future will hold - why would things be any different?  The only way to know is to try to shake up the routine that doesn't seem to be working for you.  e.g., ask him to meet you at your house for lunch, talk to him about wanting to start the sex-part of your dating, suggest that you have an evening date (even without sleeping over).

All of his reasons are optional - of course his mother or his sisters or even just a regular old babysitter could watch his kids and put them to bed.  Who takes care of his kids while he is at work?  Of course someone could watch them overnight and you could go away.

But it seems that he is the one making the limiting decisions.  Have you suggested other options and he disagreed?  or are you both being passive about it?  [/quote]

I think I have to be a bit more forward with wanting to start the sex part of the relationship. I'm used to the guy taking the lead, but since I was the main person to initiate the waiting I guess the ball is in my court. 
As for childcare, his kids are in day camp, daycare and one of his sisters is a SAHM so sometimes they are with her.  I'm sure other people could put his children to bed, but as I  understand it he wants to do that, that's their routine.   I am not a parent so I feel like I can't judge that in him and I actually think it's rather sweet .

As a parent (though not one who has lost a spouse), I welcome when I don't need to put the children to bed.  And I would be astonished if there has not been a time in the years since his wife's passing that he has not been there to do that ... are you 100% sure that he is widowed?  [/quote]
