A 29-year-old man has recently expressed his interest in pursuing a romantic relationship with an older woman. The woman in question is a widow who has five children, making her situation more complex. The man shared that he and the widow have been engaging in pleasant conversations and have a connection through their shared involvement in the same church and fellowship, as his mother is also a part of it. Additionally, he mentioned attending choir with her second daughter.
During their interactions, the man noticed that the widow addresses him using affectionate terms. He further explained that whenever they make phone calls, she excuses herself when around others and even uses a sweet, baby-like voice. While other people refer to her as "mommy###," he calls her by her first name. The man has observed that the widow reciprocates his messages and missed calls promptly, and when he expresses romantic sentiments, she playfully responds by calling him names like "you this boy" while blushing.
In a recent conversation, the widow asked the man about the nature of their relationship, revealing that she sees him more as a brother. However, he remains uncertain about her age, and he mentioned that whenever his airtime runs out during calls, she always calls him back immediately.
Seeking advice, the man poses several questions: Is this a green light indicating that the widow is interested in him romantically? Or could she be playing with his emotions? He also wonders if there is a possibility of a physical relationship ("hit"), while acknowledging that he hopes his question doesn't offend. Lastly, he seeks guidance on what signs he should be cautious of in this situation. As a 29-year-old seeking input, he appreciates any valuable advice provided.
