| Need a Little Help I've been "friends with benifits" with this guy since September. We've known each other for 17 years. We hadn't really spoken the last 11 of them after I left me hometown. When I lived here, we were involved also. When I moved back last September after my divorce we started up again.
Last Febuary I told him I wanted to start actually dating. He has a bit of a temper (to say it mildly) so I wasn't sure what his reaction was going to be. He told me that he was going to freak out about it. (I guess the fact I looked ready to run out the door was a little too obvious.)
Well, I dated a little here and there the first month, but noone I could connect with. I finally met someone in March and been seeing him since. He lives an hour and a half away so we only see each other once a week. We like each other, but have decided not to be exclusive.
Well, my friend and I have had several fights over my new date. He'd get mad about me being out and not coming home till late or the next day. Then we'd be face to face and he'd act like nothing happened.
I'm not sure what to do about him. I've offered to give up my date, but he's said no each time. (Then we'll get in another fight about the whole thing.) In the beginning he said that he didn't want a relationship, but no he's doing things that I think only a boyfriend should. He's letting me know where he's going at night and sometimes he'll text me when he gets back. He's doing more to please me in bed.
What the heck is he wanting me to do? Can anyone shed some light on this? I'm at my wits end trying to figure out what is going on in his head. |
