Would you be a pseudo girlfriend?

[Anonymous]

I was just wondering out of curiosity, if you liked a guy enough, would you settle for being his pseudo-girlfriend?

Never

pseudo: means fake or lying in greek.

I cannot be a semi- or a half or a pretending or almost girlfriend but not gf.

I expect the same caliber of love coming from my partner or problems will arise later, like resentment, anger, jealousy if that means he's allowed to play around still.

If I love him a lot, I'd never just want him to be my pseudo but official boyfriend, and I would expect equal treatment from him.

I want a man to treat me like the last bottle of water from a dessert. Treasure me and put me first, and not be afraid to show me to the world. and not undermine me with the word pseudo.

If I love a man, I'd want to share everything with him and never feel insecure because I'm only a pseudo girlfriend. At least right now, you only like him a lot, what if you fall in love with him, will he be able to take care of your heart?

No, because I would be fully emotionally invested in the relationship even though he wasn't. I couldn't do that.

And yet if men weren't willing to do that, none of you would probably meet any of them lol

What is a pseudo girlfriend?

[Asker]

It means that they are sort of like a girlfriend, but without the proper 'dating' or 'an item' thing. And no physical intimacy side of the relationship.

If you don't date and you don't do anything physical, isn't that just a female friend?

[M_A_X]

Yeah, that's just a female friend. lol It just sounds like this dude doesn't want to date you or touch you lol

[TheDigitalSaint]

That's what I thought MAX.

[snowangle]

Of course not. Why should I settle? :)
