*If you think he's stringing you along, he is. It's as simple as that. Prolonged confusion and misunderstanding only have a place in romantic comedies. Trust me, there will be no montage of you looking all beautiful and forlorn in your trendy loft apartment. When a man is ready to commit you will know it because he will ACT like your boyfriend. He will make plans. He will introduce you to his family and friends. His actions, not his words or your feelings, will show you that he respects you and wants you in his life.
*When I was a kid, I did pinewood derby races with my church. We would get a block of wood, some little plastic wheels and axles. Then, it was up to us (and of course our parents) to construct miniature cars. Then, they'd be judged on design and raced. It was a lot of fun, but of course the fun part was winning a prize. One year I didn't win a single stupid plastic trophy and my frown was glued to my face. My mom tried to console me by saying that at least I got a blue ribbon. Big freakin' deal. Everyone got a blue ribbon! My point is there isn't anything special about the prize everyone gets just for showing up. The same goes for you, girl. And I don't just mean your *ahem* grand prize. I mean your precious time, your pleasant company and other positive qualities. If you dole out the best of yourself to every hobo that comes along, you're devaluing yourself and making it OK for men to use you. Hold back a little, make sure he's quality and deserves you and all of your qualities.

* To quote one of my favorite bands, "men can do terrible things, yes they can." Well, so can women. Men will sleep with you just because they can. Women will sleep with men, hoping to somehow trap them or make them fall in love or some other ill-conceived notion. And yes, ladies I hate to say it but men will sometimes see you as a conquest, something so hot they wanted a piece. Don't take that as a compliment! I'm sure you are a hot piece, but if you want a relationship from this guy, giving your hot piece up is not going to get you there.
If you also just want a hot piece, however, that's a blog for a different time...
