Do these sound like the actions of a cheater?
I'm dating a guy who seems like a nice guy, but I'm a little naive. I'm 22 and this is my first real experience dating and I'm fairly new on the singles/dating scene in my small town, so I'm probably an easy mark.
When we're together he's very attentive, and he's constantly telling me how I'm the only one he's seeing and how he's only interested in me, and assuring me that I'm the only one (even though I've never suggested to him that I think he could be cheating). On the other hand, unless I text/call first, I won't hear from him for 4+ days, and when I do it's never to ask how I'm doing, how my day was, or anything about me (or is this just selfish of me?). I'm also concerned because of something his kid said to me. We had been officially dating for about 2 months, hanging out for 3, when I was at his house one day and after he stepped out his pre-school age kid came up to me and asked if I could keep a secret. When I said yes the kid told me that "dad has a girlfriend," and then reminded me to keep it a secret. It seems odd to me that the kid would want to keep this a secret given that the only girlfriend my boyfriend should have is me.
Am I being paranoid or do y'all think there's something to this?

Sounds like you already know the deal by what your gut has told you but you want confirmation because you are new to the game.
Well, I'll tell ya. He says he's so interested in you but doesn't call for days and when he does he doesn't ask anything about you? HMMMM. Now I'm curious - what do y'all talk about then? Does he tell you what he's been up to? Does he ONLY talk about himself? These are clues that he may just not be that into you.
And if a little kid tells you about a girlfriend, I'd start looking a bit closer, maybe show up when he's not expecting to see you, sneak and check his phone if you must, but make sure you really want to know this info, cause if you go looking you will probably find something you might not want to find.

Who feels worse - the guy being cheated on. in my opinion, maximum cheaters don't experience undesirable approximately cheating. They by some ability justify of their suggestions that what they are doing is okay, because of fact their important does not try this or does not try this. And, the cheaters I even have familiar are "serial cheaters" so as that there tells you they are able to't experience too undesirable approximately it if the proceed doing it. do no longer write off what Cammie published. there is actuality to what he's asserting. The cheater will say that they experience undesirable approximately what befell, while the guy who they cheated without longer needs them, and of course they'll come working back to you. given which you are the backup. They already made their decision while they betrayed you and positioned the different individual earlier you. sounds like that's time so you might bypass on and locate somebody who would be completely unswerving to you......

I don't think you're being paranoid at all...and if a guy does not call u for 4 or plus days unless you call him...don't waste ur time....and u know when a guy is cheating when he constantly has to convince himself to u that ur the only girl he's seeing...that's a red flag right there. And a little preschool kid would not just come out and say something like that unless he actually seen his father with another woman.

From the mouth of babe's will come the truth. His son is an innocent child who would not or could not think up such a lie to tell you. I would hold that child's word as the gospel but that relationship may not be making him happy. Most males hate being alone & will stick with the current girl, unless being with her is totally unbearable, until he finds someone else. When he calls if it is always to come over, go out & you guys end up having sex, you're his booty call. If not then you should talk to him before taking action maybe mention visiting him more often but not say anything about what his child said. Since it's only been 2 months, you shouldn't be too worried about it cause it takes men longer to be into us than it takes us to be into them.

Kids sometimes say crazy things or parrot things that have happened before, my niece keeps talking about her mummys and daddys wedding which happened a month ago, saying "i will dance at the wedding in my pretty dress" the reason for not calling or texting could be that hes busy, i know ive gone weeks without talking to girls I like just from getting caught up in life.

YES! I would think he is up to something, and if his kid said that i would beleave the kid.
also if he is always elling you these things you should take it as a hint and sweety if you are only 22 you should find a REAL man with out kids you dont want to be a stepmom so soon if you want to help raise a child let it be your own!

Sounds like he might have a double life, better find out, better than him playing you, and no that's not selfish of you to want him to ask how your day was, it's about being polite. Let him know how you feel, you're 22, it's time to be a big girl, strong woman.

Not to break your heart. But it does sound like he's cheating. Little kids are smarter than you think. And the constant reassuring to you with out you even asking is him basically telling you he is. It is way of telling you but not telling you. Know what I mean? Just go with what your heart tells you. Ask the little boy who is his girlfriend. Just watch your "boyfriends" move, if you really think he is, ask him. Or read his txt. All up to you though.
Follow your heart!

No contact for 4+ days. He is making sure you get the idea that he is independent and not looking for something cozy right now. Be aware that this is casual - he is not serious at all.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. Before you got to the kid part I had already said yes. There is no reason to say you;re the only one. and yes-he should be contacting you more four days??? He's failing all your test. when a person shows you their true self you better believe it. Good luck.
