Personally, I feel you pushed for a relationship way to fast! Should have at least slept with her for a month.
A lot of these girls that go to bar often are in "party mode" They come to hook up with guys but not to make them there boyfriend.
That's a great point. Most men can't discern between meeting someone and feeling someway committed to them from the beginning. Most are drawn to this invisible word called 'commitment'. As if suddenly SAYING it makes it somehow more real.
The only difference between saying "I'm her boyfriend" and "We hang out all the time" is that the "boyfriend" already has pressure. Just let it happen naturally. My rule of thumb - if a chick drops the 'L' word in under 6 weeks - I throw it right back in their face. Have had it happen 2x in 2 years. Both times, I said the same thing. They say "I love you" and I said "I'm going to let you have a Mulligan on that and pretend you didn't say it." and I shut up (we were in bed, having just finished fucking). One went to sleep and we discussed it the next day, the other got bitter quick. But - I explain they're not in love with ME, they're in love with being in love. In 6 weeks, they don't KNOW me well enough. BUT - then I say I'm into them, and we'll see where it goes (push/pull). ...and when one went down that love road again a week later - I bounced.
There's enough pressure already, don't invent more trying to somehow stake your claim on a woman with a title that is imaginary.
This isn't directed at any one guy. Ouch brought out a great point that triggered another thought.
