Should I continue pursuing this girl or pull the plug?

Question - (3 February 2011) 3 Answers - (Newest, 3 February 2011)
A male United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I'm in a quasi-relationship and I'm unsure if i should continue pursuing this girl or pull the plug altogether.

I've been seeing this girl, but it got off to a rocky start. We had 2 dates, and then on the 3rd she said that she wasn't ready for a relationship, although we've been seeing eachother at least once a week since then. She dates other men simultaneously, and although i'm not technically her boyfriend yet, it feels like an injustice to me because I like her very much and even if i'm not her official boyfriend yet, I'd like her to date me exclusively and not have me feel like a player in a game.

Last time i saw her everthing was going well until she reminded me that I wasn't her boyfriend, which i sure feel like until she reminds me that I'm not. It bothers me because it's like somebody telling me that we're "just friends." Yet her interest in me is like a bipolar personality; Sometimes we go out and she says that she had a lot of fun and wants to see me again, and other times she spends a long time saying that she's not ready for a relationship and that she's playing the "dating game."

I keep flirting with the idea of telling her that we shouldn't see eachother anymore because it's been causing me a significant amount of grief, but I don't want to just give up and run away like i did with my last relationship. We haven't been dating for very long. Under a month. it's possible that I'm just over-zealous and needlessly obsessive. It's also possible that I may be trying to progress the relationship too quickly for her.

My friends keep telling me that I deserve more, I have no idea why. I don't know what makes me so special that I'm above her. I'm mystified by this sense of entitlement that people keep bestowing upon me. It's been a long time since I've had a girl come within 3 feet of me, and I really want to have a healthy, stable relationship, but at the moment this isn't it. I can't make up my mind because I'm entertaining both sides of the debate.

So, to reiterate my dilemma: Should I continue pursuing this girl or pull the plug?

Advice_man agony auntI agree, move away! She is toying with you and just wanting your attention to play with. Her interest is rather selfish than genuine. Think the other way around: if there was a girl you really liked and made a move on you...would you loose this chance and date other girls at the same time? Don't think so. Keep distance! Best of luck!

Pull the plug. She priming you to be her doormat. She's a gamer doing the high school immature girl thing. Tell her goodbye and move forward to a mature young lady who has a stable head on her shoulders. That one is wanting to sleep around. You don't need that kinda trouble.
