[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP. I'm not talking about flying first class or front row tickets to Taylor Swift. I'm talking about a guy who just drove 10 hours to and from a midwestern state for a one-week vacation to save money on airfare. There's a point when your time should be more valuable. [/quote]

Okay OP, I hear you. This not the man for you. Forget front row at Taylor Swift, you all just do not seem to have compatible lifestyles. He may be a nice guy, friendly etc, but when the rubber meets the road you all are “evenly yoked” to use a Bible term.  And I sense that this has already gotten old for you. Keep him as a friend but not a romantic partner.[/quote]

I'm not sure that is possible. The mojo is strong with this one. There is good chemistry.[/quote]

Well then you can’t be friends but staying in this relationship is just going to breed resentment and turn toxic. You want a lifestyle he can’t afford. You do not want pay for everything all of them and don’t think he does either. You either have to talk about it with him and come to a solution that works for both or end it. The sex isn’t going to sustain things when you can’t/do not want to go out together because …he wants to drive to California. Unless he drives and you fly and met there. But then what type of hotel, activities etc can you do together once you get there? There are woman that have no problem paying for everything and man that are fine with it. That works,  but your situation doesn’t.

Or you can continue and have fun while it lasts, when the resentment and toxicity bubbles up end it then. As long as you aren’t looking for marriage and children and do not get pregnant, that works too.[/quote]

I’m the PP who posted above you.

OP, don’t follow the advice in that last paragraph. If you do, at least TELL him you have no intention to stay together long-term and make sure he’s okay with that. Otherwise, you’ll just be stringing him along and using him.

He’s a person, not something to consume and throw away when you’re done.[/quote]
