Well, it's NO secret that some men will absolutely buy you a house/car, spend alot of time with you, tell you they love you, introduce you to their friends/family, sex you, spend all night with you, etc. & yet NOT give a flying shxt about you!

Those types of men will absolutely do what it takes to get the "benefits" & if anything, they understand the value of patience. Some men will wait all year just to get sex from you even if they're intent was to use you or take advantage.

And I can understand why some women get confused when they meet these types of guys; it's b/c in society, we're all taught that someone won't go above and beyond or out of their way for you UNLESS you really mean something to them. Welp, men who have ill intentions use this & feed off of this; they're counting on women to believe this, thus only to fall for their bull.

HOWEVER, not all men who "take it slow" are doing so b/c they're trying to play games with you, manipulate you or run from the aspect of commitment.

Some men actually do really like you & really DO see you as someone they can settle down with, BUT b/c they don't want to be selfish or ruin something before it even gets started, they'll do BOTH you & themselves a favor & not enter into a commitment UNTIL (and not a second before) they clear out all trust problems & insecurities within themselves

Women can be so finicky. Which 1 is it? Do you want a commitment with a guy who has a ton of baggage that might end up ruining things, just for the sake of being taken or being "in love" OR are you OK with not having a commitment until BOTH of you are ready, even if that means being single for 6 months longer than you planned/wanted to?

If this guy has trust/insecurities issues, TRUST ME, you DON'T want to be in a relationship with him until those issues are cleared up. You should want to be with someone who is emotionally secure and/or ready for what you want. Doesn't mean you have to stop liking them or talking to them, BUT if someone can't give you the title, it's probably b/c they don't want to run the risk of their inner baggage ruining things once the relationship gets started!

Yes, getting the title is important, BUT having a relationship that actually LASTS is MORE important.

I think you shouldn't make it a big deal if he's treating you well. A title really doesn't mean much in that respect. I know a woman who's husband works, bought her a beautiful house, gorgeous engagement ring and wedding band, and cheats on her like crazy? What is her title doing for her? I agree with the posts above, in the respect that he may have issues. I think it how's integrity to not lure you into something he knows in his heart he isn't ready to do. Give him time.

In a while, if it bothers you that much and becomes a sore spot, talk to him honestly. Ask him how he feels. Listen.

Honestly, I don't think too much should be read into it right now.

@Ever: Overly complex? How so? None of us really know exactly what's going on nor do any of us know the poster or the guy she's referring to. So we don't have a choice but to kind of guess what's going on & give her different pieces of advice, hoping that maybe 1 will fit her exact situation.

I told the gal not to be so quick to rush to be with someone who isn't in a rush to be with her. How is that complex? I think that's pretty much universal advice! I'm not saying that she should dump the guy or flip out, BUT that his actions might suggest 2 things: 1. He's either taking advantage of her to get all the benefits like she said (after all, women that do get taken advantage of usually have the same kind of story) OR 2. This guy isn't selfish enough to offer something that requires 100% of him if he can really only give 50%

You know, men aren't stupid .. and that's the first thing a women needs to get in her brain.

The second thing a woman needs to get in your brain is that men want to get laid and will use whatever is at their disposal to get your panties off.

Third .. a guy wants to be the only one dipping

Now, take those three ^^^^ and connect them all to understand #4 = the aim is to keep your panties around your ankles for only him = a man will tell you he loves you, he will keep you believing whatever it is you need to hear to make provision for him having accessibility to your kitty, and nobody else.


He does NOT respect you .... that is a lie you tell yourself so you won't let yourself feel bad about dropping your knickers.

I think you over egged the pud in those last two paragraphs krys, but the rest makes some sense.
I think most men are wary and cautious these days as women have become quite bitter and clever these days, moreso when there's a coven present (not directed at anyone in this thread, the 'Narcissist' thread is a good example of it 🙂).
Maybe he seems to be giving less back if you haven't given him much to go off from your side of things when it comes to preferences etc. Also some don't want to feel like a burden or they're over doing it (again, related to a 'come close...no no!! scritchy scratch!! attitude some women have these days, something I think relates to their own baggage, not the guy krys 😛).

I wouldn't pay attention to anyone who posts overly complex answers to your predicament either, iloveyou, as that's probably related to that lovely word 'baggage'.
🙂




lol, you just called an aqua overly complex?

Yep. It seems it is all about the title.
As long as you have the title it is ok for your husband to screw whomever he wants and still come home to a hot dinner and loving wife.

If you haven't got the title you got nothing.

Well being in a relationship with the woman he loves is not something he should consider a "label" as if it were some sort of bad thing or burden.

Men who don't want to be committed are usually the only 1s that hate anything with a label attached to it. When a man is ready, he'll be happy to know/hear that his name is attached to a commitment that involves the woman he truly loves & cherishes. That is the difference. Commitment should come natural to 2 people who truly love eachother & want to grow. If he's hesitating about the title, it's b/c he's hesitating about growing into something with you. His actuals reasons for why he's hesistating may differ, BUT all that matters is that hesitation is NOT good, especially if you've put in alot of work & have played all your cards right
