I see people “being led on” a lot and I wonder, what are some actual signs of leading someone on in a relationship?
My 2 yr relationship with my GF is very good, I’m just curious because I do hear the phrase a lot without knowing the literal signs of it.
I also may have been “led on” before by exes.
They act like they like you sometimes but then act like they don’t, like saying they love you or showering you with compliments and then pushing you away.
What exactly do you mean? Like the other person not wanting to get married?
Pretending to like someone, I think
Assuming you mean in the beginning stages of dating or a flirty friendship? Small things like laughing at your stupid jokes, making you feel like yall are on a team and stick up for each other. Also making you feel like they MAKE time for you. Random acts of kindness. It should feel like a partnership and not one sided.
In my experience, when those things start fading, it’s done.
I think I am leading her on, then. I stopped giving her gifts or showing her affection and stopped texting her as much but I still want to be in a relationship with her. I keep her along as my girlfriend but I admittedly don’t do much, I don’t kiss her.
Please let her go then. Maybe yall can stay friends, but that’s selfish behavior. I’ve been on the other end and it really sucks.
Too late. She said goodbye and let me go.
Not really related, but this is one of the many reasons why I’ve never been able to be in a relationship. I don’t feel that way about others, so faking it feels wrong to me. I went out with a guy a couple of times and felt gross doing that. So that’s about it.
Sometimes it’s frustrating that I can’t have an intimate relationship with someone that way, but what can you do? Have to go through life with the cards you’re dealt, I guess.
That kinda sounds like you’re just aromantic
Hopefully you meet someone and it makes sense.
If not, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with being happy with yourself.

Don’t worry! I’m sure she just thinks it’s too soon in the relationship. Only be concerned when she starts going all out then like pulling away, like another user said.
