I recently met a guy while I was out with friends. Given the circumstances, guys you meet out are almost always just hook-ups. I'll be honest, this guy was intended to be just that. I really just wanted someone to go home with, but it turns out he lives in another town. Anyway, long story short, I ended just hanging with the girls and he left with his friends. Then early that morning around 3:30 he and his friends came to my place. I wasn't there, my roommate was, and they hung out for a bit. So he calls me the next day. We end up texting all night. We text each other every day. This was a little over a week ago. So he's been asking me if we could hang out sometime. I'm happy to hang out with him. I really like him. He makes me laugh and he's a nice guy. The thing is, I tend to think of things in the long-term. I'm more of a relationship kind of girl and having a hook-up buddy just isn't for me. I want more from this guy than just that. He works in my town. He's here everyday. When he says he wants to hang out, its like Why can't he just stop by after work? I'm questioning his intentions, but I don't want to ask him out right since we've only been talking for a week.I'm not really sure how to handle this. I'm trying to just have fun with this, but I've got too much going on in my life to just waste time you know? Any suggestions?

 You can't really start thinking long term with someone until you actually get to know them and that's what dating is all about. Spend som time with him and getting to know him before you start thinking about anything more long term.
