Met many of your type in my 20s.

He might be a player, but he admits it to the people he meets, which gets a lot more respect.
As did I, you'd just rather ignore my posts

So are you just upset that he didn't even act like he wanted to date you? Because honestly, it sounds like you're both doing the exact same thing, except YOU aren't having sex (that we know of).

He is trying to help you but you are nasty to him because he doesn't agree me with you.
You are being mean spirited is going hurt you in long run.

No, I don't care about who wanted to do what. The question was is this typical of people his age because I haven't come across a guy that was like this before. That was really the only question

I don't find this unusual at all. I work with lots of 20-somethings and have 20-something kids of my own. None of the 20-somethings I know are interested in getting involved with anyone as they all have careers on their minds, often with long distance "moving up the career ladder" involved over the first 5 years or so. But everyone has physical needs. And having been in the medical field my entire life, there are safe barrier methods to avoid STDs. IMO, you should always be using two methods of birth control, with at least one being a barrier method, if you don't want a permanent result with a temporary relationship.

21 is a bit young (I think) to get involved in a Friends With Benefits relationship. I see it more with the 20-somethings who are old enough to have finished college.

Seriously, I see very few relationships in this age group that are considered committed or serious, leading to marriage. But as my grandfather always said "Just be sure you FULLY understand the consequences" and "Don't do anything that could lead to permanent consequences with someone who is temporary."

Yes, it's common, and, yes, he may well be quite immature. Does it matter?

I'm sorry, but this made me laugh:

Sorry I just don't agree.

Sticking by my morals to me is not mean spirited. Like I said before, I am my #1 and I respect myself. If I don't want to have sex with someone, I tell them which is exactly what I told him the first day we ever met. That's not mean spirited. If you feel sorry he didn't get laid, then I don't know what to tell you. He will be okay, there's other girls.

It's not like we hungout for an extended period of time and I was leading him to think we were going to have sex. We hungout 4 times. He thought he could persuade me otherwise and eventually realized I wasn't feeling it so we ended it. No hard feelings.
