Knowing how long he has been using the dating app provides a better perspective on where he is coming from in telling you that he isn’t ready to commit.
A guy who has been excessively using the dating app for a long time, a year or longer, without any breaks, isn’t intent on committing to any one woman.
Having been on the dating app for that long, he has had ample opportunity to meet a good match and commit.
Some guys say whatever they believe you want to hear to get what they want out of you.
Telling you that they want a relationship and even stating as much in their online dating profile isn’t a guaranteed indication that they truly want that.
But, you take them at their word and choose to talk to them, even go out on a few dates with them.
