Ok,I wrote a topic before (can casual ever become serious).
Basically,I've been seeing a guy 8 years my junior on a very casual basis for the last 3 months.I know he obviously does like me,but it'll never turn into anything serious.
In the beginning I thought I was falling for him,and probably could have,had we spent more time together.Lately though I have realised that it's never going to lead anywhere.I never know when I'll see him next,and he has said(when I asked him where this is going basically) that I like to see him more than he'd like,he's happy seeing me every 10 days or so,and we don't have any phone contact in between,just the odd txt's,so it's very clear he doesn't want a relationship..(he's just a pup,isn't he?)
My mates said I should enjoy it for what it is,he is a drop dead gorgeous creature,and when we meet we do have fun!But,the same friends also told me that I should keep my options open.
So...just for the fun of it one night I joined a dating site,just out of curiosity,nothing else.
I didn't even put my photo on my profile as I wasn't looking for anything.
But,now I have been in contact for a while with this guy on there,just by messaging.
We haven't exchanged numbers or anything like that,he hasn't asked me any awkward questions,but he sounds really sound.
He is my age,really quite striking looking,but,it seems like talking to a friend.He told me about himself,his job,upbringing etc,and does seem quite genuine,and,we do seem to have a lot in common.
So,he asked that in a few months time or so,if we get to know eachother better first,if then maybe he could take me for a meal,just as mates,strictly no expectations?(as he likes the sound of me,and,I did send him a photo of me via the site,so he does know what I look like:-)
I have never met anyone through the internet before,and nor has he,he went on the site for the same reason,just out of curiosity and nothing else,and hi didn't expect to meet any genuine people there as he though (like me) that it might just be full of nutters!lol
So,would you go for it?
(It's like my mates said,I don't owe the guy I see casually anything,as we are not commited,and we never will be,it's just fun.But this other guy just seem to be more on my level.)
