    7 Signs He's Just a Booty Call and Not Your Boyfriend

    My first thought after typing that title was, "God, so many people are going to read this and think, 'Isn't it obvious? If you don't know the difference between a boyfriend and a booty call, you're pretty stupid.'" But then I realized, if you're reading this, chances are you're aware of just how tricky seeing your way through relationship fog can be. If you're spending time with someone and you don't feel secure in the relationship, it's not a secure relationship. It really is that simple. The reason wrapping your mind around that simple truth is so difficult for some of us is we want to be in relationships so badly, and narcissistic, selfish people are willing to obfuscate the truth and manipulate your vulnerability to get what they want from you. Here are 7 signs he's just a booty call and not your boyfriend. - By Carolyn Castiglia

      Nothing sounds more romantic in a post-coital moment than, "I want to take you to the museum someday." Or, "We should go to the beach together."

      He talks about making plans with you but never actually makes those plans
      Nothing sounds more romantic in a post-coital moment than, "I want to take you to the museum someday." Or, "We should go to the beach together." But is he actually calling you up and making concrete plans to do these things with you? Or he is begrudgingly doing these things once in a while because you're calling him out on his offer? Remember, if he is mopey and grumpy and emotionally withholding on the few occasions you go out together, he is not your boyfriend. A person who genuinely likes you will show it genuinely. If you wouldn't be friends, you should not be lovers. less
