Thanks for responding to my question. I'm not having any kind of sexual relationship with the man that I posted the question about and I'm not sure of his intensions with me. And I do not know if he has a gf. I just find it odd, that if he does have a gf (I'm only speculating that he has a gf) why he would not say, my gf and I went away for the weekend & this summer we will be renting a cottage in ME.

Maybe he is in a failing relationship and wants to leave but feel that if he discusses this he has a chance of ruining the chances of moving on
Maybe he is just looking to other women for sex , kinds like a forbidden fruit thing
different people priorityze different ways and things in their life , maybe he just feels this information is just not as important as you

Yknow, there are also many women hiding their relationship just to look available to men.
i think it depends on the personality instead of gender.
there are many men respecting their relationship.

 I think anytime a man entertains the attention of a female without mentioning he has a girlfriend is a bad sign. It tells me he wants the opportunity to still play around should he choose to do so. This is typical of men who are in newly formed relationships, wherein they're not totally committed as we are (though they may act like they are until they do something like this). Usually within the first year of a relationship (yes even after he's said he loves you) he may still be secretly keeping his options open in case something better comes along. I hope that answers your question.

The way you have stated your question here is as if there is a universal truth about mentioning your girlfriend, there are very few universal truths, and I don't think this is one of those.
