Do I just cut contact

Been dating a guy for around two months...we have both agreed that we are only dating each other but no labels on it...

He can be quite hot and cold anyway last week was a ‘cold’week and on Thursday we ageeed to call it a day whatever ‘it’ was. That lasted until Friday night when he began texting me again which led to him
On Saturday saying that he had freaked out about his feelings toward me and could he please see me...after more messages all instigated by him I agreed to meet him yesterday for dinner.

Over the conversation at dinner he told me he doesn’t do emotions...he does like me but doesn’t want the whole gf/bf label yet. Which I don’t want yet either but I don’t want to get messed around either. He said he is emotionally distant 🤷🏻‍♀️ Do I run??

Yes. You’ll only get drawn in and then dumped and then picked back up again, and before you know it you’re an emotional wreck.
It shouldn’t be this hard, especially if you’re adults

The hills are this way ->. You do not need such a man in your life. It also makes me think that your boundaries in relationships are too low and thus need more work.

Relationships should not be such hard work honestly and this man has more red flags about him that a Communist Party Committee meeting. His "I don't do emotions" shtick, contacting you after agreeing to call "it" a day and his ongoing hot and cold attitude should already have you blocking and deleting this person. Love your own self for a change.

He wants to shag around. If he's so emotionally distant then why does he have to have whole weeks off to 'freak out about his feelings'? This whole 'I don't want to put labels on us' is so that he can legitimately tell all other women that he doesn't have a girlfriend.

Run. After two months it shouldn't be this hard, and he's clearly not that into you or there wouldn't be weeks of silence.

It is a bit 'sigh' already isn't it. What a shame.

BitOutOfPractice · 23/04/2018 10:40

He sounds like a nightmare. Run!

I think that you can do better Op!
Much, much better!

sameoldsame · 23/04/2018 10:41

And for gods sake do it now. Do not get drawn into this. You’ll start having feelings and they’ll be bloody hard to get over

Ah so his other non gf cancelled and he text you to fill the slot...... Ltb, there is no good to come from him.

When he looks in a mirror he sees a man, but he's a child still.When a couple meet and if the spark in there it develops into something that suits them both be it a full committed relationship or a fwb . He obviously still doesn't know what/when/how/why . Stop seeing him and meet someone who deserves you.

If you have only been seeing each other for two months and this is the honeymoon stage for both of you, think what it will be like when the honeymoon is over!!!
