Guy's Behavior

Am I being played or over reacting? Who asks and makes ownership official? How long before they ask the question?

We’ve been speaking since mid-August (LD). He gave me rules, tasks, grooming, and began introducing poses.

We discussed other partners. He said he’s very possessive; I said I don’t share but am still vetting Doms. He disclosed he was sleeping with another woman and asked if I wanted him to stop. I told him it was okay for now since I can’t give him what he needs yet. Soon after, without me asking, he ended things with her. At this stage, he’d only seen my face and legs but already said he wanted and craved to own me. He asked if I could love my Dom; I replied I couldn’t be with one I didn’t love. He soon revealed a breeding kink.

He been guiding me asking for photos in sheets or lace but always checking I’m comfortable. He often says he wants to own me, which I take as a compliment.

We stopped talking at the start of June when he was away. On return communication slowed, though he said I was on his mind. I asked if he wanted something serious or just to play; he said if it was only sexual, he wouldn’t still be here. He confirmed he’d stopped seeing the sub and had also left his job.

One night, after play, I asked if he wanted to keep training me; he said he loves it. I explained I need more communication to build a connection if he wants to continue and potentially own me. He agreed, and we later spoke for five hours straight.

I once tested his reaction with behaviour he disliked and was punished in a way that taught me. Then I fell ill; he said he had an important project and knew he’d been absent but misses and craves me, that i'm an obsession. When complete 1.5w later, he told me he thought of me morning and night, I distracted him at work.

He remembers small things I ask, and his Snap score doesn’t move when he’s absent. Still, I don’t know where his head is at. he talks of owning my mind, body, gets possessive, but hasn’t read my latest message in 24+ hours. I’m worried, I’m catching feelings and unsure what’s normal as I’ve never had a Dom before.
