What do you make of this text

[wowjustwow22]

So I met this man walking my dog a year ago . He also has a dog and both our dogs got on so well we decided to start taking them for regular walks together twice a week . We began texting to meet up and then the meet ups turned to late night meet ups which we just let them play together and we would have a beer and talk.

We both developed feelings for each other and as of the other week he said he was falling in love with me and asked me the same question .

It was such a lovely night . Sitting under the stars and talking . The next two days here the same texting all day then when I got home from our usual walk together I had a text off him which read

Hi ..... I have had a long think about our dog walks and they have to stop . It's going too far now and it's not fair on you . I hope you under stand .

I replied and said im sorry if I have done anything wrong and he replied you have done nothing wrong it's just the right time to stop .

I have deleted his number now but I have not been able to stop thinking what he actually means . I won't be texting him again and if he does text me again I won't be replying .

Two grown ups do not usually 'fall in love' after a year of dog walking when that is all they have done (and a couple of picnics and pub meets.)

If he was really keen, you'd have had really proper dates and got into bed well within a year! Sorry but none of this sounds credible.

The only possible reason not to is a) he was in a relationship and he got carried away with the ego boost, or b) you are both very young, inexperienced in relationships, he's possibly sexually inexperienced, and ran for the hills when he thought it was getting serious.

Sorry but you come over a either very naiive, or you are not telling us the whole story.

He probably wanted it to go further more quickly but doesn't think it's going to happen

Is this thread making anyone else think of the episode of Car Share when Kayleigh doesn’t understand what ‘dogging’ is?

Reread the post and I definitely think he was tired of walking and talking. Don't necessarily think he is married. Just expected sex and now not invested as he didn't get it. Good job really

No thoughts to the replies OP?

Yes, I think he's not single too.

OP isn’t answering if she knew what his relationship status was.
This whole thread is a bit dodge.

Of course. That's why the "dates" were so odd. OP knew all along.

Anyone got links to the previous threads ?

Well if anything this thread has thrown some light on the range of innocence between posters.

Wish I was so trusting, alas my view is that op has probably had to start adding Vanish to the wash.

Bloody chorophyll.
