ive been dating (not seriously) a guy for around 2 months now. he SAYS he likes me, but the way he acts towards me, he just doesnt come off as he does. we never really talk when we arent together but when we do its for hours. and when we are together its like we're a couple, but that could be just being a girl and thinking that. i just need to know what some people think about this cause i'm getting sick of it.

It sounds as though you both enjoy the time you spend together, but you mentioned that you weren't dating 'seriously' - so you can only expect so much at the moment.

You also mentioned that he told you that he likes you , but have you told him how you feel?

Guys tend to be reluctant to make a move if there's a possibility they may be rejected/ or if he feels doing so may upset you somehow - if you want to move your relationship forward talk to him about it , or at the very least keep giving him hints until he gets the message.

I have told him I like him, and he says he "wants to things where thins go" obviously they havnt gone anywhere.

and yellowrose, i have talked to him about this, just in need of an opinion

the reason I asked was because without knowing his side or his reasons, how can others read his mind?

If you don't like the response he gave or if you don't think he is being truthful, then I wouldn't pursue the relationship

My advice is to stop asking questions and just allow things to unfold naturally. If you nag him about where things are going you may push him away. Be secure enough in yourself to know he cares for you and is with you when he can be.

it sounds like there are some needs that you have that are not being met, I agree with most here that you have to talk about things at some point, although I also agree with Texas... you might just scare him off....

I guess it all comes down to you, and what you want to do. If he's not satisfying your relationship needs, perhaps he's not the right one? If you are wondering what he is thinking, perhaps you should ask him? If you like where things are, perhaps you should keep trying to see each other?...

Brutal opinion? He may not be that into you... just lonely...

Communicate your concerns to him... his answer will give you your answer.

Couldn't have said it better myself, so I won't even try.

i think you should answer your own question.

"...he just doesn't come off as he does." what does that tell you?

"...we never really talk when we aren't together but when we do its for hours." out of sight out of mind?

"...cause i'm getting sick of it." you are not happy with the current situation so it is up to you to decide weather or not YOU are willing to continue.

it seems to me that the two of you are looking for different things from this arrangement.

yeah what he said. myself and just about every other guy I know dont spend hours on the phone or texting even if it is the SO, phone calls exist more like: 'see ya in 15' end. or text. to me time spent together is all that matters, not the communicating while away, like a stranger.
