Men!!

[bumble]

Just looking for some advice. I've been kind of dating this guy. Well, met him through a friend, he did all the chasing, asked to take me out, we went out, the week after I asked him out and we had a great night talking and drinking, we got on really well and he said he'd enjoyed himself. We text everyday and see each other when we go out with friends to the local bars/clubs. he said he wasn't looking for a girlfriend and wants things to stay as they are. So why take me out if he doesn't want anything to happen?

He's probably pigeon holed you in the "friends" catergory so have fun for now and don't let him take advantage of the situation only to dash your hopes in the future, use your own judgement for this, yes I know it's tricky....If things happen they happen but usually there has to be a slight physical attraction there to start anything off.

Not sure from your question whether any "romancing" has occurred, could it be that he is just looking for a female friend? I for one am not looking for a girlfriend due to past occurences, but i do find myself pining for female company sometimes. Perhaps your friend could find out what the score is?

men and women CAN be friends without having any sexual interaction u know.

I have a male friend who is acting like the man in your question. His reasons are that for one reason or another, he doesn't want to get tied down yet with a relationship, so is making a conscious choice to keep himself above the line of intimacy.

It so much simpler if you just meet someone and either go out with them properly or not at all!

You can bet your bottom dollar though he'd be quite happy to jump into bed though...............

Perhaps you are given off the wrong vibes and he is holding onto his ego?? Flirt with him. What will you lose?

We can't win.

Whats wrong with being just friends. It doesn't like he has taken advantage and he's being perfectly clear with you that hes just happy sharing your company.

Now you know his intentions, don't do anything stupid like getting physical because he is going to use you and dump you. He has no intention of getting into a relationship.

If you are happy as friends then great, but keep it like that. I have had male friends that I have been out with as friends and it's really nice, but just don't step over the border line.
