Please tell me what you all think!!!!!!!!!!!! (27)
as much as id like to totally agree with you here, and i would have 2 weeks ago....im gonna have to say until you both agree on a commitment to one another, then its still open field time. i would hope you both respect the others feelings and be considerate, but unless its made to be exclusive, searching for someone isnt a crime, ya never know whats around the corner or in the next email, for either of you...

I agree with Dreamer. I am not waiting another day for that committment from her. I have waited nine years and it hasn't happened yet, so I refuse to grow any older waiting for something that may never happen. I could have passed by the woman that can make me happy and visa-versa while waiting for...

Well. he told you he wanted to build a friendship so I don't think he is leading you on unless you find him no longer available since he made that statement. He may still be searching but at least he respects you enough to give you the benefit of the doubt. What he is saying is he just doesn't know right now but he is keeping you in mind. Nothing wrong with that.

He wants you to be his friend. He is looking to date other people and so should you.
If it were me, I would assume he doesn't want to date me and move on.
Be tough!

I think Dreamer nailed it - until you have that discussion to establish your relationship (and whether or not you continue seeing other people) then you're both still free-agents. Maybe you should consider checking out other items on the menu - doesn't necessarily mean you have to 'order' anything...enjoy yourself. And if you need to talk - you know where to find us....

"if you are talking to someone with the potential of dating, do you continue to talk to others?"
Yes, now once I am actually "dating" someone I tend not to go out with other people. That's not because dating more then one person is right or wrong but because I don't like to split my energy in such matters.
Leading someone on is telling them you are feeling/doing other then what you are actually feeling/doing.
Sounds to me like your guy is in the curious but not convinced stage of his envovlement with you. What you are comfortable with him doing and how long you are willing to wait until he is convinced is up to you.

Good post Ocee

Well, I'm going to quote from a popular book again...
"A man would rather be trampled by elephants that are on fire than tell you that he's just not that into you"
As you go along with this guy, remember this...
And good luck :)

Well personally I think that if he says he wants to build a Friendship first that he is unsure of what he is looking for but knows that he doesn't want to lose you as a friend. Maybe he just got out of a relationship or something and just really wants to be sure before jumping into something more. I don't think he is intentionally leading you on. I have talked to more people also too, not only can you meet your soulmate but some good friends along the way also.

I actually recoomend that book: He's Just Not That Into You. It was suggested to me as a cruel joke, but I did buy it and read it..... it really enlightened me, helped me a lot, and I look at dating differently... I'd check it out, it helps, seriously.

I agree with Dreamer too.
If he says he only wants to be friends and get to know you then he isn't tied down to you and should have the right just like yourself to keep looking etc...
Tracy :o)

OMG!! I just experienced this last night.
I asked "the new guy" what was up with us, what he felt if anything, and he just "played stupid" (as my 14 y/o daughter called it) I gave him plenty of leeway to say he was either into or NOT into me, and he wouldn't answer me either way.
I'm not going to sit around and wait for him to make up his mind!! Yes, I do care for him, but life is too short.
I will talk to other people (of both genders). I don't have a problem with him talking to others on the site we met on either.

Personally, I like getting to know someone first by becoming good friends. Isn't this how a relationship starts off? I learned the hard way it's better to take things slow.
There are some who like to keep an eye out thinking maybe someone better will come along. Perhaps he's one of those who likes to keep a full hand until the right one comes up.
When I take an interest in someone they get 100% of me. If things don't work out, then I move on.

Earl made a really good point.
When a guy decides he is interested, it should be 100% clear that he wants you and will do what it takes to get you!

Ok Question. I have been talking to this guy who I met on another site, we've gone out and spent time together all that great stuff. He tells me he wants to build a friendship before jumping into anything. Then I notice that he updated his profile, seems to me that he is still searching. My thought is that if you are talking to someone with potential of dating, do you continue to talk to others? To me that is just leading someone on. Am I just old fashioned in thinking or what?
