Can this still be casual dating or can you never go back?

So I ended up in a relationship by accident. I only meant to date him casually - I don't even want a sexual side to this, but he invited me for a weekend away at his parents and I (foolishly, in retrospect) went because he said it would be casual and there would be partying.


Now he has defined it as a "relationship" to other people, which to me, means monogamy, but I want to be free to date other people if I feel like it.


Sometimes he will say that he doesn't tell people I'm his girlfriend, but it still says "in a relationship" on facebook - I'm in college so this matters more than I'd like to admit in my social circles. I don't have my "relationship" defined online.


Basically, I do enjoy spending time with him, but that's really it. How do I tell him this? I'm horrible at being assertive and don't want to be unclear or mean or anything.

Well, you certainly want to clarify this before it goes much further. Tell him you are happy you have found a good friend like him to go out with. See what he has to say.





Either way, you need to talk to him about it.
Reply:Just use the last paragraph you wrote to tell him..."basically I do enjoy spending time with him, but that's really it."


Simple as that.
Reply:Break it off with him if you dont want he has to offer. He sounds like a great guy, and now you'll toy with him and he will take it out on his next relationship with a girl who does want him.
Reply:ask him how u two ended up "dating" and tell him u dont remember him asking u out.
Reply:Let him know that you are an open person and you don't want to be in a relationship right now per say. You just want to enjoy the college life and be carefree with your decisions in the relationships you feel that would flourish more with another person besides him.
Reply:You should go ...meet his mom ...See what hes made of!
Reply:you have to just say it
Reply:How would you like it if the guy 'you were in a relationship with' didn't respect you enough to date you and only you. You're being mean, you can't have the cake and eat it too. I'm not trying to be mean, but you should either try to date just him, or break up with him.
