You’ve been dating for weeks, maybe months. All signs point to the fact that you are his girlfriend, but are you?
In your mind you are exclusive, and it certainly feels like you are his girlfriend. There’s passion, love, fun, and maybe even the occasional “I love you.” But there is also a sneaking suspicion that you both may not be seeing the relationship the same way.
Here are eleven tips that will hopefully lend a little clarity to your situation:
1. You’ve Never Met His Friends or Family
If you have been dating for say, ten weeks, and you’ve never laid eyes on any friend or family member of his, it’s time to start asking questions. Chances are, you aren’t his girlfriend. Sure, we all get busy and sometimes work sends us where friends and family are scarce. But the more likely scenario is that he is avoiding introducing you to the important people in his life, and you should try to find out why.
2. You’re Not His Date to Major Events
What’s a major event? His company party, a friend’s birthday party, or a holiday gathering. If you start to hear any of these excuses, “Oh, it’ll be boring, I will just come by after,” or, “Joe’s a big drinker, I’ll just make an appearance and see you a little later,” there is a good possibility that he isn’t too serious about you.
3. If You Haven’t Had “The Talk,” You Are Likely Not His Girlfriend
Sometimes the loudest thing in the room is what isn’t being said. Think about your time together. Have you talked about how you both see the relationship and where it may be headed? Have you talked about being exclusive sexually? If the answer is no, and you’ve been dating for some months, it’s time to figure things out. Don’t be afraid to get your needs out in the open, so you know where you stand.
4. He Never Calls on the Weekends
This one is a bona fide red flag! If you are dating a man who doesn’t see you as his girlfriend, it may be hard for him to prioritize you. He clearly likes being around you, but making time for quality interaction means that weekend calls and dates are far and few between. You may get lots of texts, but those are easy to send from anywhere. Real human interaction is tough for him to spare.
5. You’ve Never Seen His Place
Does he have a load of excuses about why you can’t go to his place? “My roommates are pigs, and I don’t have time to clean up. Your place is so much nicer.” After some period of time, you have got to see his living space. It’s really hard to know a person without seeing how they live. And if you are his girlfriend, he is going to want to share these sorts of things—and people—with you.
6. You Are Introduced as His “Friend” or Just by Name
It is common and natural to share the nature of your relationship when being introduced. Think about it. “This is my father, John.” “This is my best friend, Amy.” Now if he introduces you as his friend that is exactly what you are: not his girlfriend.
7. Last-Minute Changes Throw Him for a Loop
Here’s a great girlfriend litmus test. How does your guy handle last-minute schedule changes? If you called him and said, “Wednesday won’t work. How about Friday?” would the answer typically be no? We are not suggesting that you test him, but if a legitimate change was needed, how would he react? Does he act like a man who is completely booked up and may be juggling priorities?
