I had been conversing with a lovely women for that last few weeks. Started out online and we have been having wonderful conversations over the phone.

Unfortunately she had informed me that she was diagnosed with COVID-19. Someone in her apartment complex had it. Of course this has scared her to death.

I have given her good emotional support through this. God has given even more. I’m glad that we had not decided to met right off the bat.

Still, once she has been symptom free for at lest 72 hours, the notion of meeting in person has become a topic. I really want to, but I have heard of relapses with the virus.

I must admit that my timing to court a women is bad. I will pray and ask our Father for guidance. I really do care for her. My concern is that she gets better, and takes care of herself

Both of us don’t want to be alone. I just don’t want to let my emotions override good judgement. Perhaps a few more weeks are in order.

I wholeheartedly agree with your last statement.. :)

I don't think meeting a woman in person is a priority right now..

If I were making the decision, I would choose not to meet for a while. You can still build a connection through communicating over the phone. Waiting a few weeks, or even a month, isn't that long in the grand scheme of things.

It is great that you are offering her some emotional support right now. Poor thing. Hopefully she will recover well.

It’s been hard for her. She said the worst part is the pressure in her head. It just won’t cease. All she does is cry. Really does break my heart.

I think the best advice is to wait. Once she gets the all clear from her doctor, for herself and then when it is safe for others, then you can talk about meetings. Right now she is not in any state to make these sorts of decisions. Pray that she stay out of the hospital. Show her the sort of man you are through your concern and praying for her. Are you able to drop off groceries for her?
Take this time to find out more about each other. Yes it is so hard but by having this time to communicate without even holding hands you can create a better, deeper foundation. Too often people are attracted and even though there are warning signs, they are too taken with attraction to heed them. This time will make it more meaningful or it will end. All the best to both of you. Stay safe.

Hey! This has been almost a week already I pray she is doing ok and recovering fast 🙏🏼

Wait a Lil bit more... During this time meeting is really not a good idea... Wait maybe after 6 mos or more...until corona virus slows down or no more..because I read some news that some recovered patients are testing positive again...this is to protect herself,you and the people around you and her.
Waiting for the right time will help your relationship 😊 as more time and effort is spent more time to talk to each other about yourselves will help strengten the connection you feel for each other.

Stay safe ❤

She has turned a corner. Thank for your prayers. I have read that a lot people are testing positive again. We are certainly playing it safe though.
