Why does my boyfriend never take me out? It’s almost the opposite of what I expect in a
boyfriend.
Does he act warm and loving to you?
Yeah. He’s fairly romantic.
Does he give you gifts? Does he talk to you often?
He sends me gifts frequently. He talks to me sometimes, but he’s often too busy to
talk.
Most guys are eager to take a girl out to show off to their friends, if only to prove
they have a girlfriend. If he won’t take you out, it is because he doesn’t want others
to know about the relationship.
He says it saves money.
If he’s too poor to take you out, you shouldn’t be dating him. Unless you want to support
him after you get married.
He says we aren’t serious enough to get married. Or even meet his family.
So you don’t get to meet his family or his friends. I think he’s seeing someone else.
You think he’s cheating on me with someone else. Is that why he sometimes won’t answer
the phone?
Or you are the other woman. And he won’t take you out because other people might report
to his official girlfriend that he’s seeing you.
Why would he do that?
Because he’s a jerk. Or he may simply be using you for sex and not want to take you
out because that would take the relationship for the next level.
Being a jerk covers both of those situations.
Or, frankly, he might be embarrassed about you so he doesn’t want to be seen with you.
It’s not like we’re an interracial couple in 1950s America. Or a biker dude with a crunchy
granola hippie chick.
Then he’s either a jerk who doesn’t want to do anything but sleep with you or is seeing
someone else. He’s a ***.
I ought to cut him off.
As long as it isn’t with something sharper than your tongue, go for it.
