So I've started seeing a guy; we went on our first date last weekend. He took me to Putt Putt and then to Texas Roadhouse. It's been the first date in a while where it's been mutual on both sides. Usually, I tend to like a guy and they don't feel the same about me and vice versa. He lives 2 1/2 hours away, so I can't just see him whenever, though I am not against the idea of a long distance relationship. Anyway, my birthday is this weekend and I was going to go and see him, but then he told me he didn't want me wasting money I didn't have. I told him I didn't have any issue with going to see him and I did have *some* money. In the end he said that he would come down here and asked me what I wanted to do for my birthday.
Anyway, he confessed to me last night that he had went on 4 dates in the past week, not including the one with me. It's to be expected that they are going to date around and see what there is, but I've never a guy openly tell me they have been on other dates. I just assume they have. It made me feel a little uneasy. I asked what happened with those dates and he said he just wasn't interested. I asked if he had any other dates planned and he said not at the moment. I guess he's been on around 60 "dates" this entire year. He said some days he would go for lunch with one person and then go to dinner with another.
I'm not looking to hop into a relationship with him right away or anything, but I do like him and he said he does like me, and I am trying to take it day by day. But I obviously want to capture his interest more than any other girls might. Part of me wishes he would had never told me he'd been on other dates in the past week. I can speculate he'd probably been on other dates, but to actually be told he had been, it's like a blow to the ego in a way. Though I am glad he was being honest about it. To me that shows character and not like he's trying to shady about it.
Could I do anything to make myself more appealing or to hold his interest over other girls?
