I was going out with a guy I met online for about 4 months. The entire time we both just enjoyed each other's company, going on dates about once a week, didn't rush into anything, didn't even get intimate because we both made it clear that we'd only sleep with each other if we're in a serious relationship. Then, I started wanting more commitment from him and he told me he wasn't ready. He and I are both in law schools but we go to different schools so our schedules are hectic. He told me he doesn't think he has the time to commit to a serious relationship, at the same time, he's not sure if his feelings is strong enough even though he does like me. So I decided to give him an ultimatum and it backfired.

It's been 3 weeks since the break-up and I've decided I want to get back together. Since I'm also super busy with school, I'd like to propose that we go back to casually seeing each other like we used to. I'm not exactly in the place where it's ideal to look for a serious relationship. In the long run, I don't expect him to change his feelings about me and I only wish to have fun with him for right now. What do you all think of this? Is it likely that he'd want me back?

Why would he believe you?

OP:

You will need to talk to him about this.

Just because you want something does not mean that he wants it as well.

He liked casual before. No reason for him not to like it in the future.

Neither of you have time. Sounds like you just want a guy around but you have no real time. Are you the type to always have a boyfriend around? You're in law school - why not wait a couple years? I mean you're "casual" and you say there is no sex? So what is there - him taking you out? How is that good for either of you if it is going nowhere and you don't even have sex?

I would give him some time to simmer down. More than likely scared him off.

I agree. Doesn't sound like either of you have time or energy for it.

He told you how he feels about you.

Why would you consider a guy who says he is 'meh' about you?

He said his feelings aren't strong for you to commit.

Move on.

Focus on school.
