Our house is on the market and we are looking round houses in a new city. We really liked a house we saw and the agent offered to put us in touch with the sellers. I agreed to be in touch with them but made it clear to the agent and the seller that we could not commit to anything yet as we haven't sold and don't have a buyer, but we were interested in discussing timelines - i.e., that IF we sold, we would be interested in making an offer on the seller's house. . I hoped at the time that meant i could just let them know that if we sold tomorrow, we'd like to buy their house.
DH, a sceptic, got cold feet about giving them any hope of buying their house without money in the bank from a sale this end, so after two weeks of agreeing to meet the sellers, told me to call the meeting off until further notice, which I did.
The sellers are now upset with me and feel used, even though I made it clear to them that we couldn't commit to anything until we sold our house.
