[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A man (39yo) and I (38yo) have been dating (proper dates a few times per week) for the past 2.5 months. Recently, we started having sex.

The other night I asked him if he was dating or seeing anyone else and he said no, but that he had "met a few people a few weeks ago."

I asked if they had slept together and he said no. I told him that I wouldn't feel comfortable remaining intimate unless we were exclusive. He said, "that sounds reasonable."

I was fine in the moment but after reflecting on it, I'm not crazy about it. I guess I'm disappointed that a) he didn't bring it up first, and that b) he didn't seem overly enthusiastic about it when I did.

Am I being too sensitive? Should I let this go?[/quote]

Did he even say he wanted to be exclusive? Sounds like he said what you wanted was reasonable and didn’t commit to what he wanted. Maybe I’m mishearing.[/quote]

+1. I'm hearing that he's ambivalent about you remaining intimate with him because he'd like to keep his options open. It's reasonable for you to not feel comfortable, but he's just going to do what he wants to do. And if you stop sleeping with him, so be it.[/quote]
