I’ve met a guy I’ve met through an online dating site and have moved in to his city a few months after we’ve begun talking VIA instant messaging. Hes a very sweet guy and I like him very much. We’ve made out and got intimate a few times. We hold hands in the car while we listen to music and hes open to displays of affection in private. However when we are in public, in front of his parents, or friends, he would only introduce me as a friend and would deflect my attempts to hold his hand. His friend is coming to town this week and he invited me to hang out with them, but I feel as if I do I’ll just be introduced only as his ‘friend’ which makes me feel a little hurt. Besides, I think it’ll be good for him to hang out with his budds cause hes been working so hard. I just know what to interpret from it and if I should continue with this relationship or take it serious if this is how it might be in the long term. I don’t want to force him out, its his choice. Feedback appreciated!
