I met this guy end of August of this year and we've been hanging out at least once a week ever since. Let's call him August guy. I really like him.
One month into the friendship, I asked him where he saw this going. He said he wanted to take things one day at a time.
I explained to him that I would continue to go on dates, etc. since we are not in a committed relationship.
He told me that he does not WANT me to see other people.
I continued to go on occasional dates while investing the bulk of my free time with August guy and I haven't met anyone else I really like.
Last week, I was hanging out with a new guy friend of mine who seems to be interested in me but we have not crossed the line from platonic friends. While on my way to meet new guy friend, I was texting August guy and told him where I was headed. He happened to be nearby and wanted to stop by. I then told him I am hanging out with a guy friend. Anyway, he stopped by and it was kind of awkward.
My new guy friend asked August guy what his intentions are with me. From whatever answer August guy gave new guy, new guy seems to think that August guy is playing games with me.
Tomorrow I'm supposed to hang out with new guy and told August guy that we're going back to the same bar and he wanted to come hang out too. Mind you I just spent all of Friday evening and part of Saturday morning with August guy.
Yesterday, I was texting August guy and mentioned that new guy thinks he's playing games with me. August guy thought that was rude and wanted me to take up for him with new guy.
I left the situation alone because that's new guy's opinion and he's entitled to his opinion. I did not see disrespect in his comment.
I canceled tomorrow's hangout with August guy to go to a meetup instead where I can meet new people. I honestly don't know what August guy wants with me at this point because he doesn't want a serious relationship yet has an issue with me seeing other people. He has not replied to my text canceling tomorrow's hangout.
I'm not sure how to move forward. Any word of encouragement or advice is appreciated.
Move on. If August guy doesn't want a steady relationship, then he's just stringing you along. You didn't say whether or not you're into New guy but if not, friendzone him or drop him.
He doesn't want to commit but wants you to...that's not a relationship, it's just stringing you along.
But, it doesn't sound like you really care that much so continue to see him too, if you want, as long as you don't expect anything from him.
