Timing
I like the idea that "everyone has their own timing"... and today ran across a comment on a blog post that reminded me of some things.
From the comment:
Anyone that needs a governmental or theological sanction to feel secure in their relationship, whether they can get it or not, has quite a way to go before they are ready for a real, healthy, grown up relationship.
I've known various people who were pursuing relationships with one party not even being sure that being gay is ok. None come to mind as having survived. I think the quote explains a bit of how difficult it would be to make work.
Everyone has their own timing, and some degree of self-acceptance has to come before it's time for serious relationship. So then one person's doubts have to be addressed before the question of relationship can even really be asked.
I wonder what instructive parallels can be drawn from this.
