Why would someone who didn’t want anything serious with you while they were long distance want something more when they’re back home?

I get why you're confused. Personally, I could never make a long distance relationship work unless the chemistry was an absolute perfect match. I have only ever felt that way with one girl who stays in New York and I am in Texas. Nothing ever escalated between us but we used to stay on the phone for hours. Once, we stayed talking from 10pm to 5am by accident. That's how well we got along. I am not really sure where she is anymore but it's on me. I lost contact with her.

Long distance relationships take far more work than when you are near the other person. Perhaps they weren't sure they could put in that level of work back then, but can now.

when you can't see someone in person you will have less incentive to be serious than with someone you can see in person.
