We met online. He is a 37 year old male and lives in the same country as me, but 10 hours away. He stays in a covid hot spot and we both strongly believe that he just recovered from covid. He came down with a fever, chest pains and lost his sense of taste and smell. He is an essential worker and hasn't been able to find time away from work to come and see me. I currently stay with my 67 year old widowed mother who is hypertensive and diabetic. Although I originally work about 2 hours away from my mum, but I am a teacher and away from the classroom at the moment. I like him and I believe he likes me too. He has told me he likes me a lot and I have been able to discern that he truly does. I have told him that I have endometriosis and infertility and painful sex may be issues for me and he has told me that he will be able to work through this with me. I can discern that he is a man with a healthy libido but I try to stress it to him at every chance i get that I am religious. He is okay with this. He has a range of emotional intelligence that I have hardly seen in any of my exes. I have snooped around his LinkedIn, Facebook and Instagram. I have searched for his siblings and parents social media. I don't think he's crazy person or catfishing. He sends me photos of his siblings, nieces and inlaws, etc. We do video calls a lot too. There's a strong likelihood that he may be "the one". If I travel to see him, I have made plans to self isolate for 3 weeks at my other house (where I work and away from my mother). But again, I am talking him into coming to see me. He has been open to it and is currently trying to squeeze in time off work. What are the health risks? How can we make this work? Covid may not leave us anytime soon, should we put this meeting off? Indefinitely? Or till when?
