A female United States age 26-29, *rettyGirlRock writes:

I ilk this guy and we hav made out before but after that he said things were complicated and he couldn't have any type of relationship right now. That was about a week and a half ago. I haven't texted him for a while and now I texted him yesterday and asked what he was doing he didn't respond tell kind of late and he said he was just sitting at home wishing I would text him more. So I said I had to go but I promised to text him as much as I could the next day. So we were texting and in the 40 text he sent me he asked 18 questions all about what I was doing that day (I was going 2 a dance) and he was asking who I met saying I probably looked hoot. And He said he was irresistible and I was like don't flatter yourself and he was like ouch and I was saying he had 2 be like a god to be irresistible to me and he asked what a god was so I told him. And he was missing the abs and he said if I worked on my ass he'd work on his abs. Then he was like just kidding I liked your butt just the way it is. And I was like thanks... To bad were just friends because we can't have that kind of fun anymore. And he said patience is a virtue. What is that suppose to mean? And is he playing me?

He's stringing you along and doesn't want you as a girlfriend ever so I'd just stop doing all the work to force it to happen..it will just backfire and he'll dump you for someone else. I think yyou should just accept he isn't all that interested in you instead of fighting it and trying to make things happen when they aren't meant to be.

OP, what is it that you want to know? You said you don't want a relationship so what does it matter what his text messages mean?

He's flirting with you and just wants to get in your pants. It's so obvious, just look at all those texts.

If you don't want a relationship with him, then what do you want? If you weren't interested in him you wouldn't be over analysing every little thing he said. You counted the exact amount of texts he sent, that is a little obsessive.

If the point of your post is wanting to know what "patience is a virtue means" ask him.

Sounds to me he means he wants to just make out with you again, that's about it.

tennisstar88 agony auntBy the way, I did answer your question. You didn't say what you wanted from him, but in the beginning of your post you state that he doesn't want a relationship..so that leads me to believe you want one. If not then you should be more specific. Instead of guessing of what he means by that saying, a smart idea would be to ask him yourself.

Who are you, my mother?

This guy never said he didn't want a relationship and I never said I wanted one from him. Will someone please post helpful advice?

tennisstar88 agony auntHe sounds an awful lot about the other one.

Well if he says he doesn't want a relationship right now, then he means what he says. The "patience is virtue" still means if you stay around you never know what might happen. But that doesn't necessarily mean a relationship. Could he change his mind about one? Sure, within time. But as of now, no. If a relationship is what you're after, then you're not going to get it from him.

Even if you are both minors, you would still be breaking the law by engaging in sexual acts.

tennisstar88 agony auntAre you still reading into what this guy says, I'm assuming he's the same guy you've been asking about.

As it was stated in these prior posts, he is a horny teenage guy who wants to see how far he can go with you. He has already said he doesn't want a relationship, and sees you as a fun friend. A light FWBs. In which you are still a minor, and he could go to jail for statutory rape if he has any kind of sex with you. Something to think about.

Anyways, "patience is a virtue" is a mysterious comment he's making to make you stick around and see what happens with you two. Which is nothing but FWBs..you already know that and you already know you're getting played. So why do you continue to stick around this guy?
