Maintaining comet relationships
Post Body

How do you do it? I've tried the online thing before and it didn't work for me, but a large part of it was due to the context and the person involved. However, I've never been interested in online to begin with.

I met someone long distance through work. We developed a very close friendship while working together which led to a deep connection and attraction. Now that I've left that position, we've decided to explore a "situationship". We actually both waffled initially because neither one of us is interested in online, but the connection is mutual and we decided we wanted to explore it. We both have other primary partners. We'd be looking mostly to hook up when we're in each other's cities. We've met in person before while we were working together, but have never gotten physical.

I'm not usually the type to need frequent communication, if I'm seeing someone regularly, texting mostly to set up meets is fine with me. However, I'm finding that now that we no longer talk every day as we did with work, it's more difficult for me to maintain interest without seeing each other. When we do talk it's great, and we have tentative plans to see each other in a couple of months, but I'm not sure I'll be able to maintain interest at this point with infrequent communication. I'm not sure frequency of communication is really the issue though. I guess some sort of fear of rejection kicks in if it's been too long.

Any thoughts or advice?
