He can't be using you, you're the one offering. Does he view this as sex only? Probably. Doesn't mean he doesn't like you as a person, just that you are for sex. He doesn't take you anywhere? Introduce you as a GF right? Sex.

I'm thinking that if the apartment came with a self replenishing pantry and fridge, he would never leave the house. Oh, maybe just to date the other women.
Sierra and Mikala: lol OK then, meet your first guy, who would pass on all physically-intimate activity, until specifically *after* a marriage! I have been fully-celibate, for over 30 years already...and that's not gonna change one bit, unless I am married first

To OP: I sincerely and genuinely hope that he does love, and have real feelings, for you

I did specify - a "red-blooded" guy!

ETA: so you guys became a couple on Valentine's Day, of all days? (lol, judging from the date stamp of your last post??)

That's so beautiful, and very romantic!! Good luck and best wishes, to you both!

I concede I should have qualified my statement. There ARE guys that would, but really, they ARE few and far between.

Sounds to me like he's just not that into you as a girlfriend. You're falling for him and you need to be told this.

hi everyone, i just thought i would give you all an update, were still together!! going strong and we have told eachother we love eachother too so things are progressing. i just wanted to say thank you to everyone that was helpful and supported me. for those of you that just used it as an excuse to abuse me, i was 20years old and made a mistake, most of you are fully grown adults and should have knows better than to be so mean, you wouldnt like it if it was one of your children and you might say my child wouldnt do that, ect but you never know.

anyway im really happy, everything is great and thank you to everyone

x

This is just my personal style, but I don't like all the answers to this woman which seem to indicate that men are to be tricked or manipulated into forming lasting relationships. As another poster said, men are not fish.

I have pretty much been honest and direct all my life, including in my sexual relationships. Men can and do respect this in a woman.

When I was just a bit older than the poster, late twenties perhaps early thirties, I had a full time job and was putting myself through school nights. I have what I consider a normal sex drive and entered into a FWB relationship with a guy from an old job I had had. It worked very well for both of us. We were friends for an awfully long time and had even considered marriage.

I have pretty much thought that people should accept a relationship as it is and not pretend it is something it is not. There is absolutely nothing wrong with a young person wanting sex and not feeling that they must marry to get it, just as long as they use protection. Sex should not be a tool to rope a person into a marriage with. The decision whether to marry is much more complex and does not need the additional emotional static.

Glad to hear all is going well. And BTW, there's no such thing as using someone for sex.
