I've recently been on 8 dates with a guy who met through some mutual friends. Basically we've been hanging out and enjoying each others company. I'm suppose to be moving to another country but unfortunately my grandfather has been sick so it's been delayed. Last night we went to movies/dinner and had a really good night in. He's very support and helping me through a tough time, however I'm not sure where this going? I like him and we have lots in common however there is a 12 year age gap between us. I suppose I sort of get mixed message due to the fact that I am meant to be moving overseas. 6 weeks ago, I said a before my grandfather was sick that I wasn't staying long and to enjoy the time we have together. I feel that I have made thing confusing for him and myself. As now I might stay due to spending more time with my family.
Hopefully someone could point me in the right direction, on what I should do next? I haven't told him that I might be staying. Do you think I should mention this in conversation next time we catch up. How do I know he would like to take the next step?
I don't see the harm in mentioning that you're staying a longer because a relative is ill and if he responds positively then its a good sign. Also what do you mean by the next step and are YOU sure you want to take the next step since I'm assuming that it'll end when you move
