Is it normal for a guy to be this full on so quickly?

I met this guy a few weeks ago through facebook. Though I had met him once a few years ago through friends and we did hang out (only that once). Anyways we have been talking a lot through txt and hung out about 2 weeks ago. Anyways to get to the point, he asked me out and I said we could try to get to know each other more. He took that as being as a couple and being in a relationship. I don't want that though as I hardly know the fella all I know is that I wanna get to know him more and see if it could blossom into something more. He says to me that he would want to be in a committed relationship with me right away and how happy he is to have me as his. He also calls me his girlfriend. is it normal for a guy to want to jump into a relationship instantly without hardly knowing who I am? I mean we have only hung out once? I am a little confused...

    He might be new to dating or something. When I first started out I was VERY quick to get into relationships without actually knowing much about the person. Over time you realize that you need to slow down a little though lol.

    • yeah he is new to dating, apparently he has never dated before though he says that he usually gets to know a girl before getting into a relationship.

    Yes it's normal for people to want to move fast. It's very quick, but it does happen. What isn't normal is how he's disregarding your feelings on the matter so blatantly. You need to be blunt with him. Tell him he has to stop treating you like you're dating until you feel comfortable with it. If you want to pursue him, you have to make sure he doesn't pressure you.

    • yes, well he has said il leave it upto you as I don't wanna freak you out or do anything wrong...He thinks dating means you an item as in a relationship but I have made it clear that no I don't want it put up on fb that we are in a relationship since we are getting to know each other.

    Its Normal and its Not at the same time.
    A whirlwind romance creates hurrican sized problems down the track. He sounds too keen.
    If he really likes you he will hold off and play it slow like you want to.
    Usually a guy goes over the top crazy because all he is thinking about is slamming his bits into yours. Usually after he has done this 2 or 3 times he becomes distant and falls madly in love with the next short skirt that his dick jumps up and points to.

  • Thanks :D and yeah I will make another post if I need to which is most likely lol. I find it sad that the majority of girls act slutty like most the ones u have come across, but no, believe it or not- there are a lot of good ones out there too who wont cheat and stuff. Oh I clicked on your link but it said not found O.o?

  • I wanted to add, the older and more experienced this guy gets he'll probably learn to slow down about asking for a commitment so soon. I know you said he's somewhat experienced but I get the feeling he's not cause if he was I doubt he'd be asking or implying you to be his gf even if he really wants that.

    He'd know people need time including him. He doesn't know you. He only knows he's horny for you.

  • Hi.

    I'm a guy that's dated a lot of girls so I'll give you my advice:

    You've asked :
    " IIN for a guy to want to jump into a relationship instantly without hardly knowing who I am? I mean we have only hung out once? I am a little confused..."

    For guys it can be normal to want to take a girl off the market when we really like her, yes. So we try to make her 'ours' as fast as we can. The last thing we want is to let some other moron steal her away from us because we know guys flirt with cute girls all the time, everywhere you go. Plus some girls fall in and out of 'love' weekly or monthly so we need to work fast before we lose our chance. Besides that, guys are super horny creatures we don't need emotions to want to have sex with you. If we like what we see we're ready for sex.

    My advice : DON'T DO IT.

    Being a guy and knowing all that I still don't ask a girl to be my committed gf if we've just met or getting to know each other. That's not fair to her and it makes it weird. It's too much pressure. And guess what, I'm a lucky guy when I like a girl and I flirt with her she has sex with me quickly (first date). If we're in a social setting and I flirt with her we're usually making out in less than 15-30 mins tops.

    Even though we've hooked up and if I really do like her I still don't imply she's my girlfriend or tell her I want her to be only mine. People need time to get to know each other and that includes me knowing her. She could be a total freak, or whatever. So I take my time seeing her then we usually agree we don't want anyone else then we give it a go and be committed.

    You don't even know this guy. He could be a good guy that doesn't understand it takes time to know someone. Or he could be mental and have real control issues like another poster said. Or he could be trying to trick you into getting laid pretending to be a good guy looking for a long term relationship telling you what you want to hear.

    If you're interesting in getting to know him more tell him you guys can hang out and go on a few dates but you're not ready for any serious thing and you need to get to know him better. You should also probably tell him you don't have sex with a guy until you really know him and feel very comfortable with him and that takes time. A long time.

    See if sticks around and is ok with that. If he's not don't bother talking to him anymore.
    If he tries talking you into having sex or being his gf, tell him he needs to respect what you want and if not you're done.
    If you want to give him a chance, give him one chance to listen to you and respect you need time. Make it very clear don't be vague.
    If he keeps nagging you or doesn't care about your feelings don't date him.

    If you don't like him and it doesn't work out don't feel bad for him either. Just be straight with him and tell him you're not into him that way. Guys need to hear the blunt truth to get it. Don't try to give him hints.

    Oh, try not to be alone with this guy either. Try setting something up with several friends until you can really trust him or if you still live at home with your parents ask your parents if he can come over. See how he acts around them but don't be alone with him.

    Also, before you let him jump on you, you should really have him get STD tested because you can get all kinds of bad stuff even from kissing him or going down on him.

    I most often get girls tested before I hook up with them but I admit sometimes I'm caught up in the moment and I don't.

    • Wow you sure did write a lot! Thanks heaps for taking the time in advising me on what to do and giving an anecdote :) Much appreciated. You will be pleased to know that I just recently told him that it's off as I am not looking for a relationship and all that it involves. I didn't tell him this, but he was real pushy with wanting to be in a committed relationship that it just put me off, so in the end it was nothing but his fault.

        Awesome! and you're very welcome.

        Thank you for taking the time to reply back it makes me happy to know I've helped someone.

        You made the right call.

        Yay!

        Hopefully you post back with your next 'guy problem' LOL.

        Hey, since you sound like a good person (girl) maybe you can give me some help on my only girl problem :

        Girls are so easy and want to hook up with me I can't trust them.
        They all seem to be so easily seduced. Doesn't matter if they're married, got a serious bf or whatever. They want it. I don't give it if I know they're married or have a bf but I often find out later.

        Are all girls horny cheating sluts or what (sorry to be blunt)?

        :(
        See this post please :

    Some people just don't realize there are steps to these things. I mean.. back in highschool if you kissed a girl, you were thinking "Omg, I have girlfriend!!" The rules just kind of change on you somewhere as you get older, I don't think everyone catches on right away. I remember when I was in high school my dad recommended I date 2 guys at the same time. I was like O.O wwhhaaattt? But now that I'm older, I realize he meant something more along the lines of, date them to see who is most suitable. Because a date is essentially to get to know someone. not taking them as your bf/gf. Back then I was like, dad -.- I'm not going to juggle two guys.

    No... Is he new to the dating scene? His eagerness could be do to the fact that he's inexperienced. I suggest sitting down and discussing your feelings with him.

        Well, when someone wants to be your boyfriend/girlfriend after you've just barely met and then they pledge their undying love to you despite the fact that ya'll hardly know one another it's a very good sign that the person is not normal!

    I was the same way once. I wasnt to experience, i didnt really know what to do and when to do it. I didnt knew at first why i decide to ask so quickly but now that i think about it, it was to ease the tension.

    The Fear that i might lose that person if i dont ask soon...

    So girl, if you do decline, he might take it as "she doesnt like you like that". Which isnt your intention i believe? You want to get to know him first, and the interest is there right? LET him know that as clearly and fast as possible. He may close his heart right away. Where your words and action may not reach him anymore.

    • oh true I understand as it is also new to me, however I do know a little bit about it haha. I have not declined, we are hanging out more and he asks if it's ok to hold hands, cuddle e.c.t. All I know is that I want it to be fun and easy, not serious and hardcore work which I am definitely not looking for.

            hell no!
            a lot of people don't know what the hell they want and they are just passive and just go with the flow of life.
            in my opinion knowing what you want is not an easy task in a lot of situations. you have to make certain experience for yourself in order to discover it. but what if u cant make the experience for yourself? or you just don't know about it because well its never been shown to you yet.
            and sometimes in order to learn what you want your gonna make some small to grave mistakes.

            do you get the gist of what im saying?

            im just saying when I was new to dating I was a complete idiot when it came to it. I didn't know if I wanted a serious or casual I just Knew I wanted a gf. It just never occurred to me how important my resolve was. maybe I was high off my hormones idk.

            so yea I truly do think its great that you know what you want. I admire people who know what they want. some people think they know what they want but when it gets down to it and they get it, they have no clue what the fuck they actually want
