[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it that you don't want to be exclusive or you don't think you are ready to sleep with him yet? To me, when you say you don't want to be exclusive you are fine if he is still dating and/or sleeping with other woman?  Are you keeping other options open yourself because you aren't sure you want to focus on him?  If your answer is yes to both questions than you are right not to agree to exclusivity at this point and you lose him over that you really weren't that compatible to begin with.

If you really don't want to date other people than be up front that you aren't dating anyone else, you aren't looking to date anyone else, you.  You are focused on getting to know him and seeing if you guys have what it takes to be in a relationship with each other ..you want to wait until you feel you could make things work in a relationship before you say you are exclusive and at some point become intimate.  See what he says.  If he realizes exclusive doesn't mean ready to have sex that day, he still may say he doesn't want to date anyone else and wants to be exclusive knowing that doesn't mean you will be sleeping together right away.  At some point, if it was just about easy sex, he could be on tinder and meet someone that wants to sleep with him and doesn't want a relationship or doesn't make having a relationship a requirement to sleeping with him.[/quote]

OP here. I wrote in my post that I do not have interest in other men at this point. He knows I'm not seeing a anyone. He isn't either, as far as I know. I would prefer he only see me but I can't tell him what to do. I wouldn't mind exclusivity but I don't want to rush. My last ex wanted to rush everything and I says yes because I didn't know any better. It ended badly, and I'm trying to be smart this time around.[/quote]
