[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe he needs to pick up a few things from their apartment? Maybe they’re out of town part of week or a single parent who can only meet up every few weeks. Who knows. [b]But he cares enough about them to not break up over text.[/b]  It sounds to me like he was dating more than you understood. Which isn’t terrible but could be rattling. I’d give him the time but also ask him in a non confrontational way about his relationships after those few weeks and wrap ups are complete. I like hearing about past partners and the more he tells you the less unknown/wild fable it is. Plus if he chooses to remain friends (actual friends) with any of them clearing the air will help.

Sweet baby Jes***, there are options other than text or in-person.  He can call on the phone.  He can have a video call.  I can’t even imagine if I told my now DH I needed 1-2 weeks to set up meetings in person with guys I started dating six weeks after I started dating him for relationships that allegedly weren’t serious in order for us to be in an exclusive relationship. I don’t think it was even a process to be exclusive, I simply stopped going on dates with other people and didn’t respond to any new online matches - that can happen right away.  I took down my profiles that day.  Anyone that warranted more than simply not making any upcoming plans only needed a phone call as to why the plans we were talking about (was it really more than a few days in advance) were not going to happen.[/quote]

Women, would you like the man you’ve been casually dating (and not sleeping with) to take you out for coffee and tell you in the coffee establishment he’s going exclusive with another woman?

obv this guy hasn’t been transparent. you don’t need in person break up dates with ppl you have been casually dating.
