When it comes to myself, I hate being called "girlfriend," and I DO NOT want to call the guy I'm dating "boyfriend." I am happy just dating. Thankfully, RedSox is as well.
I don't know what he really thinks about relationships, but I know what I think.
For me boyfriend/girlfriend is on the same plane as husband/wife. As far as I'm concerned, the ONLY difference is the latter involves the law.
Girlfriend comes with a ton of obligations, a lot of "supposed to" and "have to."
I don't HAVE to be faithful to RedSox. I choose to.
I'm not SUPPOSED to support him. I want to.
I'm not OBLIGED to do anything with him or for him. I love to.
I fear a loss of freedom and independence that comes with the "girlfriend" title, so until I feel comfortable, safe, supported, loved, cared for... fearless, I am happy just dating.
