So we don’t ask women to be in a relationship anymore?

And there you have it! But let me ask you this, say if a woman goes on dates with a man and it's all good but they both agree they're open to a relationship but don't want to rush head first. As time progresses, it seems like they are. So should the man or woman ask if they are to get clarity or does it matter?
This is me in most relationships, I dont want to rush. Just let it play out. I think in that situation a third party action is going to be the catalyst for that clarity. Since both agreed, I dont think its "on" anyone specifically to ask. Its on whoever had that experience with with a another person to get clarity. Couldve been a "so what are yall doing" conversation with a parent, best friend that sparks it. Maybe an event that only a bf/gf should be brought to, not a casual relationship. Maybe its a tragedy that brought yall close. Or sometimes, its a jealousy thing or concern with potential infidelity (most often its this). And having that "locked in" will ease that person's concerns.

In any case, whoever feels some type of way (good or bad) or is concerned with wasting time should broach that subject.

No one is saying you have to whip out the cello but some of you are trying to hard. When relationships are getting serious, there is a period of uncertainty. If you take the lead in the relationship, you will probably be the one to put your foot forward.

Take everything you see here with a grain o salt. :russ:Nobody should be basing life decisions off people trolling or venting online.

In some regards, it's true that there's men that have never asked for a relationship. Women always dropped it on them first, told them "love you" first. I've never asked for a relationship from a woman myself.

Every individual has their ways. Some may not work for others.

A lot of early to mid-twenties modern day relationships start this way lmao y’all just date and hang out until y’all become official, but some couples don’t let it be known when that occurs.

For instance, me and my girl technically had our first hangout in Feb, but we didn’t have sex until July, so I told her the July date was our anniversary since there wasn’t a defined one :mjlol: looking back on it, I should’ve asked her, but too late now :yeshrug: I really don’t care

If I or any woman for that matter has to ask... then
:scust:

I think for the most part, in the past the men I've dated they would ask me or pretty much tell me that we are together.

It wouldn't matter if you had to ask if they are the right man. I pay attention to actions, not words. So I doubt you'll be disgusted if the right dude came along.

And why would you be disgusted anyway? Men are expected to ask you out, make plans, pay for the dates. That's 90% of the work.

I made the post in the thread and it was true


:unimpressed:



I have never asked a chick to be in a relationship
And I been in a few
In a 2yr relationship now
Like 1 poster said earlier


I have never even considered being committed before a chick offered the relationship

When im single i keep a roster so im not lonely or looking for a relationship in the 1st place


I just kick it with women
Based off the interaction, information, vibe

That determines where she fits in or if she even fits

So she gets added to the roster

Or

1 time smash

Or

Dont even smash or deal with her again

Or

Friendzoned


If i think she dating material
I date her while still utilizing my roster

I would think she doing the same and dont care either way :unimpressed:


Ive been offered numerous relationships
Even been proposed to by a chick i wasnt in a relationship with

I get offered relationships like women get offered sex

Sex isnt an indicator of a monogamous relationship lol.

then the question is are both parties agreeing to cut off all orbitors and be exclusive to each other.

there is no right or wrong answer, my thing is we are in a multi cultural country but move around with assumptions as if everyone has the same values and this is what gets people in trouble.

bum ass “old school” dudes removing agency from women to speak their mind, and socially
Awkward women who dont know how to communicate like an adult.
