Sag woman with Leo man

OK, a little background and then a question...I'm a pretty typical Sagittarius other than the flirt thing. I think it would be fun to be a flirt, I'm just not. I'm also not opposed to being in a comitted relationship like some sites suggest. It just takes a very special person to grab my attetion in that way.

Like this Leo man I'm into right now. I'm not sure either of us has met a better match for one another. It's amazing. We just get each other! Of course the sex is amazing and we give each other gobs of attention even when we're not together. We've had strong feelings for eachother for a while now but haven't said the "L" word yet. He says he's never liked someone as much as he likes me as soon as he did.

He has a kid with his ex that left him a year ago and I have 2 kids with my ex I left a year and a half ago. We also live almost 2 hours away from eachother and it wouldn't be easy for either of us to move to the other's town.

OK, my question...We've been seeing eachother for a little over 5 weeks and he still isn't talking publically official couple yet(though he did say he's not seeing anyone else now that we've met). What's taking him so long? If it's meant to be, does the distance matter? Really, we seem like a perfect fit other than the distance.

Thank you so much for your responces :)
