How would you define a proper connection with someone?



started seeing a guy he recently broke up with his ex, wasn't a problem at first but i wasn't entrurely comfortable because i knew they were still in contact so i put up a wall in some respect
i found out he was still in touch more than a knew and put a stop to it, but then we started talking more seriously and he said he's not ready for a relationship and that it wasn't just about sex but that he didn't feel a proper connection with me

he then gor bacj with his ex but still wants to see me
