If it works for you and since nobody is getting hurt then I don't see that there is a problem.
Other solutions are available.
Many relationships work on the basis that there is time together and time alone. Some men (and women) spend a lot fo time in their sheds (or on their hobbies, gardening, computing, fishing etc etc) which is actually equivalent to time alone to think, time to do what you want.
I think that one of the reasons that your solution works is that you aren't afraid of failure. You each get what you expect and therefore you are free of the "pressure to perform" that a date situation creates. Personally I found dating difficult and met people more slowly through social events where you had the opportunity to meet but no expectation that you would make a decision or get hooked up. if you get to know someone over a period of time then you can relax more and allow each other to see each other's strengths and weaknesses.
