I don't know what to do...


Question Posted Wednesday April 15 2009, 6:06 am

Ok so i have known this guy for about 5 years now but we've been talking for 3 months and when we started talking he told me that we were going to get to know each other and then see where it goes. well a couple of days ago we took that step. THAT STEP. and now he's kind of stepped back a little bit and i'm just scared that he's just going to bounce after all of this and i don't know how to approach him withoout making it seem like i'm wanting him to commit like now. but then again i do want him to commit because i do care about him alot. i just don't know what to do....

Trauma answered Thursday April 16 2009, 9:02 am:
You both need to be clear with each other about what your expectations are for this relationship. You don't have to do it strongly, like tell him that he HAS to commit (not saying you would). And you have a right to know whether he wants to take the relationship further, or if he just wanted a one time thing. Just ask him where he wants this relationship to go. If he just wanted a one time thing, or he wants to commit to you. Don't be afraid to ask. And if he's a jerk about it, then forget him. That would be stupid of him to not expect you to want to know about his seriousness about the relationship.

A little more advice here: Not trying to be rude or anything, but if something like this happens again, it might be best to maybe get to know the person a little bit more before you take "the step", & maybe make your expectations known. Again, not being rude, but there are a lot of guys who just want one thing, & a lot of them will be willing to lie to you to get it.
