I'm eighteen years old and my best friend and I have recently started dating. He told me that his past relationships have failed because he has a tendency to cheat, but he doesn't want to hurt me, and he doesn't want to cheat on me. He told me he wants to settle down, because he just wanted to be happy with one person. Which is how I feel. Now, things are a little iffy between us, because he is so flirtatious with other girls. I'm so very confused. Does he want to settle down or not? I think he wants me to try and change him, or at least help, But I can't get past his flirting with other girls. Is he ready/willing to settle down? And should I end this before I get too into it? What is he trying to tell me?!
At least he was honest about it, but that doesn't mean he will stop. It's a big favor to you to have that knowledge ahead of time, because most girls don't. Personally I think you should not pursue a steady relationship with him.
He's not ready, and it seems like neither are you. This is a major life decision that should not be taken lightly. Take your time. Nobody should be ready to settle down until at least their mid-20's.
I don't think he's ready to settle down if he's flirting all the time with women. Some guys are like that some aren't. Are you sleeping or making out with him or are you just friends for now and want something more.
I am 19 years old and have done my fair share of stupid stuff and partying in my life. People are shocked because I no longer have one night stands...
