Can a guy do this?

[Gene9]

Can a guy truly like a girl, and still not be ready to commit to her fully? As in he knows he’s caught feelings but he is at a stage in his life where he can’t be with her emotionally? There’s a guy who’s been pursuing me for a year, and still isn’t ready, but I have a feeling he likes me?

[LazerBean]

Not if he has any sort of strong meaningful feelings, and certainly not after a while year lmao

[Gene9]

Committing in this sense means marriage

[LazerBean]

Yeah, fully committed means marriage.

[spartan55]

A year? Uh... he isn't into you.

[Gene9]

Why would he waste his time then?

[spartan55]

Someone to talk to etc

[spartan55]

How can you 'not be ready' after a year? Bullshit

[Gene9]

Commiting in this sense means marriage

[spartan55]

That's not how it works.

[Gene9]

Yes it does for me and my culture. We don’t date to date, we talk for marriage

[spartan55]

Okay, but he isn't showing you any sort of commitment.

[Gene9]

Hmmm true

[Sam_25]

Yes for avoiding drama & headache of love.

[Shamalien]

A man can yes, we are complex.

[Abby-09]

wait actually?

[Shamalien]

@Abby-09 yes. Of course if he liked you more, or saw it working better in the future, he may not be so hesitant

[Gene9]

Like you more… but why does he flirt with me and initiate contact. I literally ignore him. And he calls me sexy. I’m so confused. Is he only sexually attracted?
