Am I his?

Guys don't ask. That whole asking thing is stupid to be honest. If you two hold hands and kiss in public, then you're his girlfriend and he's your boyfriend. That's the way we work. It honestly doesn't even occur to us to ask because it should go without saying.

Yeah you are, yes it is.

well you guys could be dating but only if you actually want to. but in my personal opinion I think you guys could be, but you also couldn't. and that is a two sided coin because if you both want to be dating then you are. but if both of you guys are not sure of what is going on with both of you. then you are not dating, that is unless you hold hands and kiss and all that other stuff in the regular basis. but by the sounds of it, it does kind of sound like you are

Courtship is a process where two people consider a relationship as serious from the start, expecting marriage unless something causes otherwise. Dating is not as serious and the expectations and responsibilities are less, if not ignored. If you ask him whether he considers himself yours, and vice versa, and he says yes, you might consider it the beginning of courtship, without the dating. In either case, I would ask him how he feels, not what he thinks, then share what you think with him. Men will typically process the first sentence or two, so make sure you ask him in a concise way, and pay attention to his wording. Thinking is natural to a man. Feeling is something many men struggle with in our culture.
My bottom line guess is that the two of you are courting, without the official part, where your parents function as a sounding board so you don't have to tell a guy you like as a friend, that you aren't interested in him otherwise. One of the blessings of courtship is that the parents can take the wrap off you, if you don't want to get serious with a guy. This happens when you let your parents "insist" they meet any prospective suitors, even if it has to be by mail, so the suitor chooses whether to respect you, through the process of meeting your parents. If a man doesn't respect, and value, you enough to make that kind of an investment, they don't deserve you investing your time in them.

You can never tell. Maybe he wants to get to know you a little better before he gets into a relationship. Beware, though! Don't give up anything before you know his true feelings.

This is weird but I was in a relationship kinda like this, and my best friend told everybody that we were 'unofficial official', your together but you not. If that makes any sense.

well. ask him if you are. ask for his opinion. it sounds to me like you are, but test him and ask him he thinks you are or than he migh ask you.

I would consider you guys dating. But you know, sometimes you really need to flat out ask guys about these things. Just because they can be dense sometimes. So to be sure, I would suggest talking about it.

Yes. some guys are shy to ask so this might have been away of doing it instead. this could been his way of asking you out.
