What's the best way to let a guy know I want our online dating profiles hidden or deleted without sounding too demanding or imposing that I'm asking for a relationship now?

Story is, we met online, dating for over two months. He hid his profile when we started dating. I didn't hide mine. He reactivated his profile about two weeks ago. I want our profiles hidden. How do I tell him?

You don't. I would tell the girl I'm deleting my profile the second I'm exclusive with a girl. Not a second before or after. If she asks me that, I would think she is controlling.

You should take that as a sign.

I'd leave if I were you, clearly he's thinking about terminating the relationship.

But the thing is he's planning more dates with me that's why I'm thinking of hiding my profile. I see him more often than before.

You should create a fake profile and put up a fake picture. See if he takes the bait.

Are you exclusive? Does he think you're exclusive? And how do you know he re-activated his profile unless yours is active too?

I'm going with what TheHurricaneKid said, though. Online dating is too much of a pain, and too time-consuming to re-activate a profile for other reasons besides wanting to meet other people.

Have you ever thought that behind every fake picture is a REAL PERSON?

Can I tell him I hid my profile maybe it would give him a hint and he would do the same?

It's sad...but I'm going to have to go with this. If he reactivated his account he's obviously scoping out other women and hopes to have one ready to go before he lets you go.

He blocked then unblocked his profile. I didn't hide mine at all. Maybe he saw that I'm still active so he unblocked his?
