My question for April is that I had joined a dating site called Badoo about 11/2 weeks ago and have been chatting to a few men on the online chat but have not met any of them yet as most of the ones that got a hold of me live in another city or province. Anwyay, one particular man named Eric and I were chatting and he lives in another city called Calgary which is about a few hundred miles from here. He asked me how long I was on this site and if I have been chatting with other men. I told him yes, a few and I told him that I was dating to get to know someone well because it takes time to get to know someone. He just stated that he only wanted to date and get to know me only because I’m such a beautiful woman and too many men will want to scoop me up. I told him that this is dating and I don’t mind if he dates others and keeps in touch because it takes awhile to get to know someone.
He told me he only wanted to get to know one woman at a time and that was me and to delete my account and get to know only him. Now, the first voice inside me said that “we don’t even know each other and I feel like I would like to date others as well to get to know who I really like”. This is what I read from other love coaches and that’s why they call it dating.
Do you feel that he is too controlling too soon or he just doesn’t know that dating entails meeting others as I’m not sleeping with anyone as I’m looking for a long-term relationship myself but I would like to have my options open especially if I haven’t met them in person yet? Thank you.
