I really like the guy I'm dating. I want to find a way to see with him more often without coming off as too needy and scaring him away. What should I do?
Love is the battery of life....
Hi,
And how are you feeling today?
Honesty is the best policy. Tell him exactly what you wrote here and see how he reacts.
Play the role and see him when he wants to see you, for now, don't seem so interested act like it's great to hear and spend time with him but it's also ok when you can't. Act like he can talk to you as a friend touch subjects from last conversation, showing interest on result of the issue, he'll appreciate the interest. Ask him over what are his plans for the weekends etc... And agree with whatever they are, then say oh ok well have fun. Eventually he will kick the question back at you and you say nothing much. Plans will begin to develop more often. It worked for me!Good luck!

I think you just need to get over this period of time, when there is still uncertainty. I guess in a relationship there are some things you need to cede . Maybe in your case this is one of them , just relax enjoy your partner build up the trust and in know time you will be seeing each other as much as you'd like. Sometimes holding back our desires makes them more enjoyable later.
Generally, men like to feel needed and wanted by a desirable woman. It's a lovely sensation. As mentioned by writers above, simply tell him that you would like to be with him more often, that time with him is special to you. If said too early in a developing relationship, rather than you coming across as being "needy", the greater likelihood is that he would feel that he is beoming "trapped". Dreaded visions of walking down the aisle into marriage could cloud his perception of the relationship! Men tend to run when they feel that way.
Needy is not good, back off and if he comes back he's yours, if he doesn't, he never was. I should know, I'm 71 yrs old, but I know a lot about Men !
Invite him over for dinner or even a nice Saturday afternoon lunch would really be something nice and different. I donot know how long you have known this gentlemen but don't rush into this you will see that sometimes when you let the pot simmer and the heat stay on that it makes the meal so much better. This guy likes you alot also but is afraid to commit because of past relationships. Beware of his temper because sometimes it gets out of hand and he will say really stupid stuff. Hang in there and this goose can be your feast for a long time.
I hope he's caviar..,.
It is like this, if you really like him and the feeling is not mutual, it won't matter what kind of illusion you create to get his attention, eventually you will have to be yourself. One thing that I know for a fact is that men are attracted to a confident woman. Sometimes the things that you want are not best for you, life is too short to do anything else
