DO YOU BELIEVE IN RELATIONSHIP TITLES MEN?
It depends how long you guys been together? I dated one guy who said he didn't believe in it but after a few months he started calling me GF... On the other hand there's a guy I know seeing a girl and he flirts with me cuz he says they have no label...?

5 going on 6 months we've been dealing, but see I'm not asking him to be decisive about what we are immediately, but I'm not about to just be doing relationship shit with someone who isn't going to claim me. Fuck that.

Mhmm girl we just had an entire argument about it. He's an Aries btw. But I feel like he doesn't want me to leave him however he doesn't want to call me his girlfriend however he says we're in a relationship and godforbid I say we're not. But even still idk if that means we're exclusive... idk wtf the shit means. I told him if I can't have a title ever then ima move tf on. We both hung up mad.

I see... Well I think you did the right thing. Ball is in his court and what he decides may alter the course of your relationship. Or, maybe nothing drastic will change right away but I have to wonder why he is so against it.

Do you believe in the boyfriend and girlfriend titles when in a relationship? Why? Or why not? My guy thing says we're in a relationship but he doesn't like titles. I don't like it because I feel like that leaves it open to invite others in. I feel like a title presents respect? Hell he calls his friends "friends" lol. So what am I? He says he thinks titles are childish, but I think he's being childish. But I could be wrong. Help.
I agree with him. I've done the "girlfriend" thing to death, it means nothing anymore. And you only lose intimacy.

What do you mean by "and you only lose intimacy?"

Is my point. All he said was what he sees in todays world with having titles and it's childish and idk to me all that shit aint got shit to do with me. I told him idgaf about today's world I'm talking about me here lol. Like I'm going to feel like I deserve to be claimed at some point and that's what I'll want. So if he can't give me that then I feel like it's time to go...but maybe I'm old school.

He's such a dumbasss.How old is he?
24 *rolls eyes*

How does he feel about calling you his ex girlfriend?
Lmaooo I'm saying right?
Posted by Seraphlight
I have noticed that ...those that don't call women the girlfriend still call them the ex girlfriend. Weird. lol
Good point!
All great points to think about here! He hasn't really said anything that would convince me that his point is of merit. So until then I really don't feel inspired to sway from my ideals guys.

Titles define things.
He's being immature imo.
