How do you know a guy truly wants a relationship with you?

This is a really good question, but i'm not really sure. Most of the time it is pretty easy to tell if a guy wants a relationship w you, and it sounds to me like he is giving you all the signs that he does. I think the problem is he wants to feel like he has some sort of indepence in his head, when in reality he doesnt, he's yours he's not going anywhere and if you left him he would be heart broken. It's just a male independence thing we all say that we dont want a serious relationship when we are young. If he didnt want a relationship w you he would hide you.

I am sorry to tell you that but he is using you. He knows that you have feelings for him and he is using that. I'm not an expert in relationship but for me you are already his girlfriend especially if you are sleeping with him. Ask him what he wants and if it is not what you want. Walk away. You will find a man who will treat you like a queen! This seems like the type of guys who wants it all without committing. It's fine if it is what you want. If not, be careful, you can become pregnant and he won't necesssarily take responsibilities.

Why not just ask him...are you afraid that'll push him away? Seems like you 2 are doing all the things "couples" do. If a relationship is what you want, let him know that, if he's not ready to commit to you, stop spending as much time with him. You don't have to answer all his texts and calls, let him know you mean business....good luck hun...=)

as soon as someone says they are not ready for a relationship it means they are lying about how they feel for you ---- when you care for someone you dont say stupid things like that ---- no one is ready for a relationship ---- you meet someone you click and you just want to be with them --- you dont think about anything else ---- you dont worry "are we official" or are we exclusive ---- labels dont change how you feel and to me you are exclusive from before the first date ---- you dont have "talk" you just are with each other and no one else matters ---- so if you need all these labels before you think you are together then sorry there is nothing between you --- there should be passion and romance and nothing left to think about --- i may not be expressing what i feel should be there but its not there no matter how much you protest that it is --- the fact that you are here says there is nothing there

I think it an inner feeling and it different for each person and how much you are sure he care for you depend how much you trust him and she trust you!!in other words don't rely on the answer here there is no standard answers!!
