+1 It strikes his fragile ego. |
She means the date was the other night, with a guy she met online 6 weeks ago. |
| Yeah I mean it doesn’t bode well that he’s texting while on a date with you. I’d just move along. Plus 6 weeks is awhile to not have advanced the relationship. |
| He was probably planning his hookup for after the chaste date |
I agree. The issue isn't that he is dating other people, as you have to assume people are if you haven't had the exclusivity talk yet, but that he did it while on a date with you! So rude. Most men turn off their notifications and put the phone in their pocket or upside down on the table. Then they text while you're in the bathroom. |
He’s not into you. If he was, he wouldn’t text other romantic interests while spending time with you. |
| Rude, but now you know he’s not overly interested in you. |
You were able to see exactly what he texted? He had the balls to do that right next to you? I would’ve said something right away. Not because he isn’t allowed to date others, but because it’s rude to do it in your company. |
OP here. I want to give this some hope, don't you think six weeks is kind of early to bring up a relationship talk? It's a bit long distance, so we talk a bunch but don't see each other all the time. Which, leads to the insecurity I have with him. |

You’re ignoring a huge red flag if you want to give this some hope. This is as good as it gets. Are you that desperate for a man?
It’s clear that he’s not that into you, let alone be in a relationship with you. |
| What was said via the text? I think that matters. |
| I would have walked out. |
Ditto. Also, are you sure he hasn’t friend zoned you? |
Thinking about you. We made out for a while. |
Oh shit, I'm sorry OP but this is hilarious. If he'd have said "can't talk right now" or LOL in response to a text or something it would be one thing. But he texted another romantic interest thinking about you while on a date with you, and you're still trying to find a way to make it work? Like PP said, this is as good as it gets. And that ain't good. |
