Dear cupid,

I am in love with a man 12 yrs my senior. We have been dating for close to 11 months now. We have great chemistry have had alot of good times together. On the other hand we have had some drama as he calls it. His pace is a little slower than what I'm used to. He seems old fashioned and likes to be the pursuer. Which is fine, but If I suggest anything most of the time he freaks out says he feels controlled etc. He is a retired master chief from the navy. I think he has control issues and so does everyone else. He has alot of good qualities and I accept him for who he is. I feel hurt that he is ignoring me. The last time we talked was Friday nite. He said he needed time to think and that he likes me alot. cares about me and is very attracted to me. I will not call him I want him to call me. How long should I give him his space?

Danielepew agony auntThis is a tough question. You'll always wonder whether you should wait just another day, or just another week. I think the good answer, in this case, is "for as long as you're comfortable". If he comes your way, though, tell him you expect him to have thought things through. You shouldn't let him ask you for space again. Or so I think.
