    Hi everyone. Feeling awful but could use insight. I met what I thought was a great man on a dating app. We had a fun first date with dinner and a long walk. We got coffee on the second date and spoke about our intentions. I told him I did not want casual sex because I’m interested in building something. I have kids and he doesn’t and his job will make him move in several years temporarily. We both knew this about each other going in. We both said we want a relationship. On the third date, he spent the night and we were intimate. The next day we got lunch and spent some of the day together before he went to work. Today I said I enjoyed our time and was interested in what he saw going forward. He waited hours to reply and said that he likes me but “has worries about anything long term due to my kids and his having to move. And just ‘hanging out for fun’ might be better.”

    We specifically both said we did not want anything casual. Then we had sex and suddenly he wants to just “hang out for fun.” I gave him a chance and I had hope for him. I am hurt and upset and this has made me feel very used. Did he just lie to get what he wanted?

    It’s not his fault that you didn’t get to know him or his true intentions before you went intimate…

    You learned a very important lesson here. Firstly, this guy is a jerk. You were clear what you want – good for you! But next time, you don’t have sex until exclusive. Wanting the same things is not the same as being exclusive. You assumed they were the same.

    It usually takes more than 3 dates to be exclusive.

    So, keep at it, and do not less this jerk get to you:

    – keep voicing what you want, not casual and exclusive

    – let him make it clear he cleared the decks of other women.

    – wait until you agree together there are no other people.

    – never contact a man first after sex and if he waits longer than 48 hours, he is not serious about you.

    If you want closure with this guy:

    “Bob, that is disappointing to hear that you now only want something casual. We are no longer on the same page and I wish you best.”

    Or simply just ignore him and move on

    You can’t believe a man’s words at first. You have to get to know people to determine if their words matc their behavior.

    He may not have actually lied. Maybe he was just saying what he thinks women want to hear, maybe he changed his mind.

    It’s all on you for sleeping with a practical stranger.
