Why would he indirectly care about the pics I post when we aren’t together?

[Anonymous]

On a date he made a comment about them and mentioned if my father would approve…

then I remember that he made it seem like he was possibly open to something serious in the beginning…

now he said he’s not where he wants to be career wise… I’m confused

What does 'indirectly care' mean?

[Asker]

Because he asked me what would my father think about my pics…

Why would he even care what my father thinks.. I’m grown and my father lives hours away…

I just thought it was odd

[spartan55]

I don't think he meant anything by it.

[spartan55]

So you aren't together but went on a date?

[Asker]

We aren’t in a relationship but I do feel like that is a weird remark

[spartan55]

I don't, you are overthinking. So why are you so hung up on a comment that meant nothing when you aren't even together?

[spartan55]

It's only going to be a big deal if you make it one.

[spartan55]

You think he secretly wants a committed relationship with you and that was his way of hinting at it?

[Asker]

I don’t know
