We have a bit of a rocky relationship, we’ve only been on 5ish dates and it’s a very long story but he’s a good guy and I want to make it work with him.

My question is, he lives in another town and can only visit me on the weekend. Which means that if I’m busy this weekend, we’d see each other next weekend, meaning 2 weeks in between dates.

To be completely honest, I don’t know if that’s a good idea, because I think momentum is important. But at the same time, i think he and I both need some space (I kind of need to get my shit together and have a busy stressful week next week).

Is it better to see him and possibly mess things up because unprepared for this weekend, or have some time to work on myself but possibly mess the relationship up because too much space?
