but acts like you are in every other way....
We lost contact for a couple of yrs (friends for 11yrs) but recently reconnected and have been dating for 6 months. We had "the talk" months ago and agreed that we were going to be exclusive. I'm just frustrated because it feels like we're in a relationship, but he refuses to address me as his girlfriend. He knows a lot of people, so when we are out we're always bumping into someone he knows and he always introduces me as his friend.
Honestly, I would prefer him to just introduce me without any title because it feels like he's going out of his way to let them know I am only his friend.
I just don't get it because other than the title issue he acts like I'm his girlfriend meaning...we hang out multiple times a week, he calls me everyday, hang out with his friends & family, plans trips with me, leaves me at his place alone, etc...
I have brought it up to him once and he basically could not give me a reason why he does it. My sister said maybe he's the type that doesn't use/like titles, but I find that hard to believe because he addresses each and every one of he's ex's as his "ex-girlfriend". I'm just at my wits end and ready to walk. I've already made up my mind that I am going to stop acting like his girlfriend but I'm not sure what approach I should take...completely shut him out of my life or just make myself unavailable? Please advise...
