lofi_tokyo Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 Hi there! I've been dating a guy for about a week now, and its wonderful. One of the things I like most is how... none sappy we are. Its just like, we hang out, enjoy our time together, and are happy. I've only been in two relationships before this, one which ended after about 4 months because we just were not compatible, and the other was a 2.5 yr relationship. My question is how long can a relationship last on minimal romance? I want things to stay like this for a while, just crush like, and first datingish. Does that question make sense? Furthermore, how far along in a relationship do the "I love you"s come out? As I said, I really like the guy I'm dating... and maybe we'll get more serious eventually. But right now I'm just not ready for that, just yet, and wanna get an idea of the pace of relationships ;p
jimbo Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 I'm in the situation as the guy you are seeing. He, as in me, may not be reading the signals you are sending out correctly.. Try being a bit more obvious. That may give him better understanding on what you are looking for.

Try being a bit more obvious. That may give him better understanding on what you are looking for. Thanks for the reply Jimbo. Before we started dating we were having one of those kinds of talks that skirts around dating, in which I mentioned how I don't really want to do the whole flowers, I love you's, random gifts, thinking too much about the future, making a big deal out of special occasions kind of thing. He heard me say it, but mentioned how he still thought that was kinda important. He didn't fight me on it though, just kinda put his two cents in. So... do you think hes going to start expecting more out of me, although I already mentioned my stance? As I said, we just started dating, he seems okay with it NOW, but I'm scared after a few months he'll want more, or feel more, and I may not be ready or willing to move at that pace.
