I’ve been seeing a girl for 2-3 months who is giving me hints she wants to have a relationship status talk to basically upgrade our status from dating to BF/GF. Problem is I don’t think it want that with her, because I don’t feel strongly enough. I’ll probaky just end it once we have the talk and am kind of anxious. I was womdering how common this is and do these talk usually end in commitment and end well?

Never ends well.

Do it in a public restaurant. Chances are she won’t kill you in public.

End it via text, say it was you, then block her, never to talk to her again.

Wouldn't you want to be considerate and civil, just in case you ran into each other days, months, or years later?

I wouldn't do this myself, just throwing out one of many options.

So why are you with her?

Maybe you should "probably just end it" now.

These talks usually end in commitment when both people want commitment. She can't force you to be her boyfriend unless you just sit there and don't say, "I'm sorry, but I don't think this is going to work."

If you knew early on you didn't want anything serious, you should've made that clear as early as you know. Don't wait for her to initiate. If it ends up being dramatic....don't act surprised.

How does being "the boyfriend" commit you to anything? If after 3 months of dating some guy doesn't want to say he's my boyfriend, um, adios. On to greener pastures.

Basically, your feeling is you don't want to acknowledge her at all. Not flattering.
