If they only wanted to date you because they wanted a girlfriend, not neccisarily because they want to be with YOU? @_@


UPDATED INFORMATION!
Ok, I thought it'd be a good idea to give a little more information! *
First off, I JUST got out of a relationship 3 weeks ok. My ex broke up with me and has since treated me really bad...even to the point of making me cry which I DO NOT do often. Not only that, but I thought I still had feelings for him. I found out today that he is already dating someone else...that totally hurt because its like, our relationship wasn't WORTH anything? * We were together for a YEAR and even LIVED together...*sigh* I dunno, ANYWAYS....
The guy I am talking about is a friend of my ex, but ALSO my friend. We get along really well and we have a lot in common. I'm hesitant because of the fact I just got out of a relationship...not to mention the two of THEM are friends and I'm really tired of hearing stuff about my ex.
My biggest problem with going out with him is this: He just joined the Navy, and he will be shipping out in February. I'm wondering if its really worth it to get involved with someone who is just going to be leaving. He says he is looking for a girl who won't leave him or cheat on him while he's gone. But he's going to be gone for FIVE YEARS STRAIGHT! @_@ Who wants to try to keep up a relationship like that?
I dunno...I'm just REALLY confused right now. In a way I want a relationship because I think it might help me completely get over my ex. But would I be jumping into something WORSE!? XD Bah! Can I get some advice PLEASE PLEASE PLEASSSEEE!? ;_;

if I was in that position sure I would. Sometimes I am lonely and I just need someone, it is wrong to mess with feelings but if he or she felt the same way you can both mess with each other. It might lead to a real relationship too.

[LUVSSOURCREAM]

as long as im okay with it. you may never know, feelings might develop.unless he's using you to make someone else jealous then i wouldn't do it

[AhYee]

Yeah, sometimes you just don't know what might blossom from that relationship. Like the saying goes, expect the unexpected. Typically I wouldn't do that kind of relationship, but if I was lonely and I wouldn't mind having someone there, then I would go for it. I'm not losing anything if I do. I might even gain something back =) Unless you feel like feelings shouldn't be played around, then that might not be a bright idea.

[한스 ㅋㅋ]

lol... less likely for a guy to do that to a girl...
As a guy, i would never do that if I'm not attracted to the girl at all.
I need a gf that I can be proud of.
Not some.. random girl.... to fill my boredom.... why need a girlfriend then.......

but maybe in the POV of a desperate guy it is different.

[rectitude*]

Never, because I wouldn't want to be with someone I don't even have the same kind of feelings for. It'll be too awkward for me.

[es623]

no. i dont want to be some 'accessory' because everyone else has one. like an ipod for example. especially if the position can be filled by anyone and not just me, relationships should be more precious than that.

[uh-ohxev]

Mhm no. This is exactly why I haven't had a boyfriend. Because everyone in my school, dates just to say "OMG LOOK AT MY BOYFRIEND" and every week they get a new one. I don't like that. I have to have interest, and be able to communicate with that person before dating them. My friends always try to set me up with guys, that I NEVER even click with. I only date people I like, sorry. I don't see whats fun about being with someone just because? :|

[Shuga]

NO NONONONONONO.

I'd feel so un-appreciated...

[LittleCabbage]

I don't really mind, they might have feelings for you towards the end

[marishane]

Yeah. I think I would. Honestly, I've never had a boyfriend since birth and if someone would want to date me just because they wanted to have a girlfriend I think I might as well go with the flow. I also just wanted to have a boyfriend. I never know, we might develop feelings for each other. But if it doesn't work out, then I won't do it anymore. I just like a little experiment.

[yellowchocolate]

it depends...
if i liked him...and he wanted to go out with me, then i think i would do it.

but on the other hand...one sided relationships suck.
either you dont like eachother or you do, lol.

so i wouldnt go out with someone if they were only looking for a gf.
i'd only go out with someone if they liked me, and we liked eachother equally....this is pretty much the only thing i've learnt from my failed relationship.

[-_-]

No I wouldn't.. not my thing.

[supraspeed]

just go for it, but you on the othe hand don't fall for them unless they fall for you, then you can fall for them lol

[elaynurr]

um no. talk about being desperate. sheesh

[ketchup?]

Helllll no. I want to go out with someone AFTER he develops feelings for me, not before. I think that's lame.

[Strawberii]

It's the other way around for me..LOL.
I orginially went out with him because i wanted a boyfriend.
We've been going out for more than a month and my feelings have definitly grew for him.

[hippiehop]

I wouldn't date someone like that... I think I'd dump him if I found out.

[kimi xx]

I don't think so. I want some one that loves me and I'll love him back. I can't just be in a relationship because I'm lonely and want a boyfriend, same goes for the guy.

[CharlotteDarcy]

sure...but only if you feel the same way about him.

What do they call this? Casual dating?
