Situationship
I (21/F) have been talking to this guy(22/M) for a little over a month now.
He says he doesn’t want to rush into a relationship because he wants us to take our time, which I understand. At the same time, he talks a lot about the future like living together, marriage, engagement after bachelor’s, moving out together, etc.
He’s respectful overall and always asks before bringing up more intimate topics, but sometimes those conversations make me uncomfortable because I’m not fully ready for that yet. I’m okay with taking time before officially dating, but I also want slower pacing when it comes to physical/intimate discussions.
How do I bring this up without making him feel bad or misunderstood? And realistically, how long should a situationship last before it becomes something serious?
