He asked if I was seeing anyone else?

[Anonymous]

This guy I am seeing asked me if I was seeing anyone else (we are not exclusive so I have every right to see someone else, which I'm not and I told him I wasn't)...is that good or bad?

why buy the cow when the milk is free? he's just checking to make sure he doesn't have to worry about STDs or anything. furthermore, he wants to gauge how easy it is to keep you around. you're not seeing anyone, even though he isn't giving you any kind of comittment, you're not asking for one, its the perfect set up for him. he can just keep getting his fix whenever he needs it, then going back and doing whatever he wants.

Well we've been seeing each other for awhile now, half the time we'll go out to dinner and to a movie or we'll just stay in and watch or movie or something. He talks to me regularly. We haven't had sex but we have kissed. The nights that we stay in he always cuddles with me and whatnot and never pressures me to have sex.

He obviously is interested in being exclusive. Don't lie to him.

I didn't lie to him. When he asked me I told him that I wasn't and I was being completely 100% honest with him. I don't want to get my hopes up or anything, but I really do like him. He's completely different then any other guy I have been with. I have no reason to even look to find someone else.

Then be optimistic!! I'd kill to have a girl that interested in me. He's lucky

:) well thanks. I don't know how to explain it but things are different with him. I'll just have to wait and see how things go. Thanks for answering.
