No labels long distance "situationship"

Been talking to this guy for almost 4 months now and it’s been good so far. Most of our chats are about missing each other and him wanting to be close. We haven’t met yet, but he’s planning to this year. He’s super busy running his own company, so I get it.

The thing is… aside from our intimacy, I feel like I might not be the only one he’s talking to that way. He seems loyal, but since we haven’t met, I know he could be keeping his options open.

One thing I can’t deny: he’s consistent. Always checks on me, always makes time. Also helps me with my expenses a bit. But I’m starting to crave exclusivity, and it feels too early to ask for that. He says he likes me and wants me, but I wonder… do situationships like this last, or do they fade out eventually?

👀 Anyone else been in something similar? How did it turn out for you?

I’ve been talking to this guy for 3 months now. We’re long distance and honestly… we don’t really have a label, so I guess you could call it a situationship.

I asked him once if he sees us being in a real relationship someday. He didn’t say no, but he also didn’t fully say yes either. He told me he wants to meet me first before deciding.

Now I’m kinda confused if that’s actually reasonable since we haven’t met in person yet, or if he’s just keeping me around while still exploring other options. 😅

Has anyone been in a similar situation before? Did it turn into something serious after meeting, or was it just mixed signals the whole time? I’d love to hear your thoughts or experiences.

So there’s this guy I’ve been talking to for about 3 months now. We met on Snapchat because he randomly added me one day. At first, I honestly didn’t pay much attention to his snaps, but I can’t lie… he’s actually cute and definitely my type. 😭

The thing is, I know a lot of people say guys on Snapchat are usually just playing around and not looking for anything serious. He’s still close with his old friends there too, so of course that thought crosses my mind sometimes.

What confuses me is that he’s been so consistent with me. Like genuinely consistent. Never a day goes by without him messaging me. Even when I try not to text first, he still reaches out and tells me he misses me. 🥹

I asked him before if he sees us being in a relationship, and he never really said “no.” He just said he’s the type of person who wants to meet first before fully deciding. Which honestly makes sense… except we literally live on different continents, so meeting isn’t exactly easy. But at the same time, it’s not impossible either, and the possibility is actually very real.

Now I’m starting to get attached, and I guess my fear is… what if one day he just stops messaging? 😅

Do you guys think someone can really stay consistent like this until meeting in person? Or is this one of those situations where people eventually lose interest over time? I honestly don’t know what to think anymore.

What’s your take on this? 🤍

So I started talking to this guy around 3 months ago after he randomly added me on Snapchat. At first, I honestly didn’t pay much attention to his messages because I was still emotionally involved with someone else — kind of an online LDR situation. But over time, I slowly started detaching from that person, and I realized how happy this new guy makes me because of how he treats me.

He’s been really consistent, always there for me, checks on how I feel, and makes me feel cared for. He’s even planning to meet me someday, and he has helped me a bit financially too, but to me it feels more like genuine care rather than anything else. We haven’t really put a label on what we are yet, though he did say we’re “on the way to a relationship,” which I guess is kind of like a situationship for now.

The thing is, I’ve grown to see him as someone really important to me. Honestly, I don’t even feel interested in talking to other guys anymore. I do know he probably still talks to other girls since his Snapscore keeps going up, but at the same time, I know I can’t really accuse him of anything because we’re not officially together.

I guess what I’m wondering is… do connections like this usually turn into real relationships once two people finally meet and build a deeper connection? Or is it possible he could eventually detach because of the distance and choose someone closer to him instead?

One time I apologized for being far away, and he just told me not to worry because one day we’ll meet. That honestly stayed with me.

So I’ve been talking to this guy for about 3 months now, and honestly… he’s been one of the most consistent people I’ve met. We randomly added each other on Snapchat and at first I didn’t really pay much attention because I was still emotionally tied to someone else from an online LDR situation. But over time, I slowly detached from that and started appreciating the person who was actually showing up for me.

He’s always present, checks on me, cares about how I feel, and even talks about wanting to meet me someday. He’s also helped me a bit financially before, but to me it never felt transactional — more like genuine care and support.

We don’t really have an official label yet, though he once said we’re “on the way to a relationship,” which I guess is basically a situationship 😭 But truthfully, he’s become really important to me. I don’t even feel interested in entertaining anyone else.

At the same time, I know we’re not exclusive. I know he probably still talks to other girls too, and I can’t really get mad because technically there’s no commitment yet. I just can’t help but wonder sometimes… can something like this actually grow into a real relationship once two people finally meet and build a deeper connection? Or do long-distance situations usually fade away eventually?

I even apologized once for being so far away, and he just told me, “Don’t worry, one day we’ll meet.” And honestly… that stayed with me.
