Status-less Long Distance Relationship (25F) (28M)
Hey everyone,
I’ve got a bit of a relationship puzzle on my hands and I’d love to hear your thoughts and advice. Here’s the scoop:
My partner (28M) and I (25F) met in Singapore and we had an amazing 3-month connection. But, here’s the twist – he had to head back to his home country, and while he’s eager to return to Singapore (possibly around January 2024), it’s not set in stone. The final decision lies with his company, so it’s a bit of a waiting game.
Now, here’s where things get interesting. We haven’t officially put a label on our relationship, knowing he’d be leaving soon. But there’s definitely a strong liking and care between us. I mustered up the courage to ask him about ‘what are we?’ and the whole exclusivity thing right before he left. His response was a bit ambiguous. He didn’t want to make any promises at the moment, but he also mentioned he’d be up for exclusivity without the official status. So, it’s left me in a bit of a relationship limbo.
Honestly, part of me really wants to wait for him. I’m not keen on dating multiple people simultaneously, and I believe in taking chances on love. But I can’t deny that I have my moments of doubt. Especially with 6 hours time difference, there is less communication, and without a defined status or a set date for our next meeting, I’m left pondering whether this is worth pursuing.
What do you think, fellow netizens? Have you been in a similar situation? Any advice or personal stories to share? I’m all ears and looking forward to your insights! ????????️
