Dating doubts .. hehe 😅

Hi people...

So I randomly happened to meet this person as we work in the same city. We exchanged numbers, started talking, met a few times too.

Things went well until the person asked, I hope you are not looking for something serious. We are. Just friends.

Well fine. I may be thinking of taking serious, atleast somewhere at the back of my head. I find casual relationship a waste of time..

But I didn't even bother to confirm whether we were officially dating. Should I ask it directly.

I'm worried how they're gonna react . Plus it's clear anyway that they're not serious. So should I take it ahead as a friendship only.

And is it fine to ask if they are open to me dating other people then, or is this implicit?

Your advice helps, please share thoughts 🙏

Looks like you’re one conversation away from either ‘date’ or ‘mate

Doesn't even seem away. Pretty clear to me.

If dating only means something serious for you then you should move on.. because already your dating partner has given you the red signal so, it won't work for you

He is very clear. So express your feelings too. Pick a side and move along. We need to be clear

You suggest asking is better than assuming?

Yes because communication is the key and we need to express our views and expectations regarding relationships. If he have other plans you both need to discuss And come to a middle ground

Tell them you're interested in serious relationship. Walk away. That's it. Plenty of other options available.

Being held in suspense is torture. Wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. Ask them if you're interested and if they're not on the same page, move on. That's is the least messy way. You could do it other ways, but a clean yes or no is always best, a clean break if no.

Ahh! Torture sounds relatable! Suspense seems to be the only thing bothering, glad to hear that advice. Will surely clear it up . .
