And to not see other people. I know that makes it sound official, but not seeing other people is pretty clear, whatever you call it.

No kidding. Seeing other people is not seeing other people. We had the same agreement in the relationship I had end in January. She wasn't ready to be Facebook Official or carry around the moniker of boyfriend and girlfriend, yet neither of us were seeing other people. I know I've had to head down that path in life, because I've dated some women that turned out to be commitment phobes and/or overly independent and relied on their independent status. Nothing wrong with it, since I followed the same path in my late 20s when I ended up dating a couple good women in that time period. I can tell you what independence has gotten me, and that's SINGLE. I turned 30 and my ability to meet a woman who wanted a serious relationship drastically decreased. I also started noticing that women I was meeting was wanting less of a title and to hold onto as much independence as they could.

Wait! You're freaking out because you haven't heard from him since 2:30 today? That's only four hours.

I agree you probably screwed up but so did he. Don't contact him. Let him make the next few choices.

Actually, according to her they didn't agree to be "official", whatever that means. He did, however, tell her that he was no longer using the app. He was basically lying.

Cheeses, could he be any more defensive about it? Good God! Sir, take a Xanax!

His overblown degree of defensiveness and snottiness would be telling me all I needed to know, personally. His specifically stating where he'd be on a specific weekend to total strangers on a dating/hookup site only cements the obviousness. Put your profile back up. Things won't get prettier from here, the guy is not only a liar but he freaks out even when you're being 100% cool and accepting. Sure wouldn't be the guy I'd want to be with. I'd be dropping this guy.

Maybe I was confused because if I compare him to the last crap guy I dated, he did everything different. He took me out, introduced me to his friends, always made me a priority. He was never mean to me and always listened. Even my friends like how attentive he was towards me and seemed very interested in me. I've never had anyone who wanted to do things for me like cook me dinner, take me out, etc. He never made me feel pressure to sleep with him. Literally, everything was perfect. That's why I don't understand why he did this.

He knew I could have easily got on my account and see his update, which I did.
Then, in a sense, you lied too.

You said you weren't on it either.

Agh dating via apps. If both don't delete their profile once they've had any 'talk', then both are still looking to meet people. Just my experience.

Social media is far from a beneficial thing... Except maybe seeing what random people are having for lunch or increasing thumb fatigue from our phone addictions, imo

I wouldn't have any problem with him still looking for other people except that you both agreed not to date anyone else. He lied to you. No matter what his explanation is, or if he apologizes how can you trust him now?

Not really, though. She wasn't actively using it for its intended purpose.

She logged in once to show her friend how it works, which my friend has done for me before. It's not quite the same thing as using the app.

It's telling that he asked her first if she was still on the app. For him to get on the same app they met on to seek out a hookup is either really dumb on his part or incredibly ballsy, knowing how easily she could see him on there.
