I feel horrible, like I should have told him in person. I also feel like I scared him away but I dont want to waste my time on someone who doesn't want to by my boyfriend. Did I mess up?
Let's pull back from the emotion for a second. You guys went on some dates that were probably fun judging by the number of them. But that's all it was, dates, you guys aren't in a relationship and really shouldn't have any heavy feelings invested. So bring yourself back to some reasonable expectations. Yeah, it sucks, yeah obviously something was there but, you laid it out in the text of what you expect and that's the most important thing to do. Expectations are set and he'll either respond or you both found out what you want and saved yourselves time.
You didn't messed up nothing, but keeping in mind that in Today's era, LTR, is sounds soo good but is soo unpredictable. As most girls just want to "have fun" or just looking for F with B, or just want a "roomate", so when a girl is asking for something serious, because of today's mentality that sounds a little offset.
I don’t think you messed up. If I were in your shoes I would expect to be exclusive after that many dates. Did you tell him before you started dating that you were only looking for long term relationships?
The real question is how did he respond to that? Does he want to work towards a relationship as well?

I see nothing wrong with this, if you want a boyfriend then you look for one, it's only logical that if you don't find it with one person, you'll move on to another, now I would say that you should clarify to him your intentions on why you are saying him tho so it's clear and if it doesn't happen, it's not cause you weren't clear about
There's nothing wrong with that. Honestly, I think that's how most guys prefer to date anyway. You get to know eachother, you mess around along the way and you find out if it should be a long term plan or not.
I think you're just feeling a certain way because a part of you as afraid of losing something but you're smart because you know deep down you want more and you're only wasting time at this point if he doesn't take the relationship to the next level with you.
You didn't mess up by telling the guy what you are looking for.
No, that sounds reasonable. I had the exclusivity talk with my last girlfriend on the 3rd date
I think if a guy isn't exclusive, isn't serious for you then move on. Avoid wastage of time and investment on that guy.
It's only weird doing after 7 dates I think. But that's just my opinion. At YOUR age I think it's more normal. I don't think it's EVER wrong to communicate what you want, what you're after. They can't read your mind.
That seems reasonable.
The man knows his worth 👍
