Search Results: does he just want sex

First off we have NOT had sex. We've sexted a bit.

Anyway he sometimes gets called into emergencies at work & I asked him to text me if he does. It's a simple request so I know he hasn't been in an accident or something.

.

He didn't do it the first time, okay. We talked about it & he promised he'd text me.

Second time, just a few days later, he's called in and AGAIN he doesn't text me.

He promised & promised up and down that if it happened again he'd text me. He says he wants a future with me, etc., etc. - we get along quite well otherwise - and said he'd text.

Third time and AGAIN he doesn't text me.

.

There's other little things he's done - it's not just this - that imply he doesn't respect me.

Like I'll link him something and instead of looking at it he'll just respond off the article (and been wrong). And other things, etc. it'd take too long to list all the little nuisances that are niggling the back of my mine.

.

But this not texting when he promises and promises is like fuck you.

If you really did mean what you said --- and I am someone raised to stand by my word, not spout empty valueless air --- you'd do it.

Within what kinds of conditions do you choose whom you will date?

What are the parameters?

What are the guidelines?

Do you have a cut off point?

how does it work?

How do you know the person has the same goals?

Growing up, never imagined marriage - or sex- or relationships - growing up so none of it is an obvious forgone conclusion for me even now…so I’m very curious how dating works for people who already know what they want and will only dare to marry.

THANKS!!
