Trapped

I’ve heard of being getting trapped in a friend relationship when you really wanted more, but what about becoming trapped in an emotional, committed relationship when you just wanted some fun?

Maybe it is because we haven’t actually had “fun” yet…and the build up to “fun” is taking too long...

Picture this:

You date someone for a month or so, everything is going really well, you really click emotionally…great…but then they announce they believe in no sex before marriage… can you leave that relationship without seeming shallow and making it look like you were only after one thing?

I feel I am morally in a similar situation.

See I’ve built up trust, told her she’s beautiful, held her face in my hands while we kiss…but there still isn’t that spark…although I’m fairly sure she thinks there must be. But how can I end this now? Come to think of it… end what?

Things are bizarre we kiss to greet, go out, chat, watch a film at her place and that’s about it, maybe a bit more kissing at some point, but there is always a reason not to stay.

We are not officially in a relationship though (both have single Facebook statuses for all that’s worth) and don’t introduce each other as “boyfriend and girlfriend”.

She went for a meal with another bloke (who apparently is in a relationship).

Maybe I’m over thinking it, I’m pretty sure any other red blooded male would tell her to get lost…am I showing cowardice or kindness?

I’m off on annual leave for a few weeks to visit family…maybe it will just fizzle out.

Do these things fizzle?
