I think the next time you talk to him about it you need to do so calmly and rationally. Just tell him plainly and clearly what you want and what you need. And if he can’t show through actions, not words, that he’s on board with that, then it’s probably time to move on.

It’s important to check-in with yourself to make sure you’re comfortable with the pace in the early stages. Some people are perfectly fine with moving super fast, while others need to take their time getting to know someone. If you’re someone who fits in the second category but your partner is ready to make big next steps, this may not be the right situation for you.

I have been dating a guy for 14 months now and in many ways he’s fantastic. He is always telling me how much he loves me, he opens up to me and he does put the effort in when we go out on dates. The problem is that he works nights, so I only see him once a week.

I wrote a comment and seeking advice I see where many have commented and do not see where any of you have provided feed back or advice. Please looking for advice on my situation. It sounds as if he thinks he can just come and go as he pleases, and you are confusing sex with love. Hey girl, I have exactly the same advice for you as for Zanya etc.

In fact, I think the most common relationship in this day and age is the non-relationship, that is, when you’re dating a guy and you’re basically boyfriend/girlfriend aside from the fact that you’re not.

Of course, other issues also factored into our decision to stay engaged for as long as we have. In the subsequent months after our engagement, my father’s cancer got worse, and he died sooner than we’d been expecting.

My ex future faked me to get what he wanted at the time. He promised a future, love bombed me, played the ‘ my exes used me’ card to get away with any responsibility. Sometimes the men dont say they dont want to commit, they pretend for a long time they do to get what they need at that moment.

I’ve tried talking to him about spending more time together when working hours allow, but he promises he will see me more, but constantly lets me down. He keeps putting off meeting my mother and I have yet to meet any of his family.
