limberlost Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 So, I have an acquaintance who I briefly met at friend's wedding. He ended up seeing me on a online dating site, and we exchanged numbers/email. I left said dating site, because I was going to be out of the country for a month for work. He started emailing/texting me and it ended up morphing into talking almost everyday, texting, skyping, or phone calls. He lives four states and over 800 miles away, but it's been over two months of daily contact and he hasn't brought up meeting. I have a lot of great friends, and while I have a lot in common with him I'm not interesting in just friendship. (Although, I would want to meet again before starting anything.) Anyway, I'm not sure if I should just outright state this. I feel pretty dumb asking this, but I feel slightly behind when it comes to relationships. I had neurotic parents, and was allowed to have virtually no contact with males until I left for college at 19. (I did sneak out once to meet boys, but I got caught holding hands. My parents decided to send me to a tiny, conservative, religious school and moved me to to a second floor bedroom. Seriously, my family life was disturbingly like the Virgin Suicides movie.) I had one relationship for three years in college, although I left said conservative religion and that pretty much ended the relationship. Anyway, that was a bit of a tangent.
FitChick Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 You have to ask him what he wants. I wasted three months with a guy who finally admitted that he didn't want a long distance relationship but still wanted to keep talking to me several hours per week. There are a lot of lonely men out there. That's not what I'm looking for so I ended it.
