Is it common to approach someone from your friend group for casual sex?
I decided to give a chance to a friend’s friend. We met in our friend’s birthday and she’s the wife of one of his closest friends. We were both marriage testimonies in their wedding and we started getting closer after 1 year because he confessed to our friends that he liked me.
It never crossed my mind that his goal was to drag me into a casual relationship until I got to know that he never had a long-term relationship at almost 40, would text me minimally, superficial conversations, being emotionally lazy and low effort. I’m much younger than him and virgin, he started losing interest because I don’t want to have sex until our relationship becomes official. I ended things with him because I feel he lead me on and disrespected me because he made it seem that he wanted a monogamic and committed relationship in the beginning.
Now things are weird between us and our friends were excited about us and thought we looked good together because like me, they assumed he wanted something serious. Is this something common to do? Did I miss out something? #relationships source
