Just found the right guy. Any advice on the do's and don'ts? I can't lose him!?

Ok, we've met 3 times already. I know it's not that long, but he's a good catch and I just go crazy about him. He's hot looking, has a very nice job in his early 20s

The first date was a couple of cocktails and a movie, then we went to a bar. He kissed me. it was very sensual...

anyway, he invited me over to his place to watch a movie. I was like "no no no", no BS.

he promised to behave, I agreed.

We came to his place, watched a movie for a while and were just kissing and cuddling. he never tried more. then, like at 4 am I asked him to drive me home. He did.

next day no call. no text.

The day after he texted me and we went out. Clubs, bars...fun.

then again his apt and we just cuddled. I slept in his bed (no sex), next morning day off, we went to the beach.

then we wanted to go to the movies (his suggestion), but then he said that the plans changed and he had to go to his friend's birthday. He didn't invite me with him thou...

SO the question is: what's the game about? guys, help!!!

Update:

well I talked to my employer (we're best friends ever, she's 38 and has a degree in psychology), and she said that it shows that he's mature and is just playing it cool.

IDK, he's very sweet with me and caring (when I needed help choosing oil for my car oil change, he drove me to the store and helped me. I pretended I didn't know what kind of oil to get :)

also, he's not a party guy at all. He has a serious job as an investment banker, and that's not what they do. I have a lot of friends from that circle.

He doesn't have anyone else, he's just moved here a couple of weeks ago from N Cali.

He's very smart. so that's why I thought he's just trying to seem not too fast or something.

Someone said he might wanted me for sex, but he had 2 opportunities... I wouldn't do it, but he even didn't try.

And I did invite him when I had a party with my friends. he was with his friends, but they didn't want to go to the bar we were at, so he just left them and came to me.

Update 2:

obviously I'm not going to ditch him since I'm not really sure about what's going on, I might be wrong. but what shall I do in this situation?

Will it help if i just start acting "colder" with him? not answer his calls, call back like next day or something... not agree to go out on a date for a couple of times...things like that?

or if someone can tell me more?

Update 3:

no, my boss is cool. I'm a nanny for her kids and i live in her house. we're like family. been together for a year

    Honey, this guy's just trying to have his way with you and the sooner you realize this the better for you. Your head is still in the clouds but you have to get it out as soon as possible. Trust me, you won't find the result of what's going funny. And just so you know, you are making yourself way too available to him.

    Its not really a game so much as its him seeing if he wants this to continue. Men are picky sometimes, which isn't a bad thing, I mean he wants to make sure you're exactly what he's going to need and what he wants. Have you established whether this is an exclusive girlfriend/boyfriend relationship or if its still in the air? You need to know that. He still doesnt' really know you all that well either, so don't freak out too much, he's testing the waters, he needs to get to know you. Its still too early for you to be meeting his friends too, so don't get upset about that.

    He might think that you think he's not sex material or that you just want to go out with him to just hang out...and if you do say he's the "right" guy ... than plan a special evening with dinner and candles... maybe take a shower together to get the mood right.. then if this works invite him to the bed... get a condom! <--- Very important.... It'll be a great first. He wont have a doubt on him mind that you dont love him. and if you just dont want to do it with him than just do dinner and talk to him.. tell him how you feel... who knows what might happen...

    Good luck!

    I dunno. Could it be he's gay? Sounds odd slept in same bed no sex. Maybe he wants you as a "cover." There's something awfully practiced soundng about that first kiss.

    Or, maybe since he's new he needs time to get settled. I'd get busy with some other activities. You can't give much to a relationship if you aren't into other things besides.

    ALSO not recommended talking to your boss about boyfriends. No matter how "cool" they are, talk to others outside the company from now on. Keep it professional.

    This is called, play the stupid girl until she gives in. He's like the dog you put by the door, when you're eating dinner. And you keep telling him NO!, but he inch's his way closer and closer, until he finally gets right next to you. Then you give in and give him what he wants. Then all of a sudden things change and hes not so great a guy.

    If you are looking for guys based in their jobs, cars, or how hot they are, you are already setup to be screwed, so if he screws you over, please don't cry about it, now you know what hes doing.

    Guys usually don't want to bring a girl around their friends until they get serious about someone. The key is to not be too needy and clingy. Give him his space and every once in awhile tell him that you have plans but will try to meet up later.

    Don't pressure him, guys hate that. Just go with the flow. Don't get caught up in him so much that you forget who you are and who your friends are. Guys like a strong and emotionally stable girl. He will respect and like you more if you don't bend down and kiss his ring every time he comes around. Still go out with your friends and have a life. He will want you more.

    He sounds like a party loser... Basically, he wants someone to party with and show off to his friends.

    Good relationships are first built on friendship... You must achieve friendship before getting serious if you want a lasting meaningful relationship

    sorry to say it babe, but he may just be a player, and want sex, or maybe he wants a real relationship, but thinks sex should be in store, either way, you basically have to give him sex to find out,,,how hot are you? then if youre hot he will prob love to have you for a gf...as long as your not btchy or super high maintenance..

    Source(s): good luck...from Mr, answeroni
  • maybe he just wanted some time with his friends. It can't be all about the girlfriend 24-7. give him a little space.
