He may have texted you to tell you that he needed space, but he may actually just need space in order to spend more time on the dating website.

If the both of you have been dating but your relationship has never been made official, there is a good reason for that.

An official relationship with you may have never been his objective.

By texting you to tell you that he needed space, he may have simply done it because he knows that his interaction with you is coming to an end.

He may have already sensed this for quite some time now.

From the very beginning of his interaction with you, he may have already known that you were the type of girl who would want to get into a committed relationship relatively soon.

He may have never had the desire to actually get into a committed relationship with you at some point.

With this early knowledge, he most likely already knew that he would be using a dating website in the foreseeable future.

However, for the moment, he knew that he was attracted to you.

He knew that if he didn’t at least give you some kind of hope that an official relationship was on the horizon, you may have decided to no longer communicate with him.

He didn’t want this.

He was attracted to you and was hoping to get more out of his interaction with you.

Hence, he may have decided to give you the impression that he was also looking for a serious relationship just so that you would stick around.

Now that the both of you have been talking for some time, he knows that time is running out.

He knows that at some point you are going to want a committed relationship to happen.

Hence, he may have texted you to tell you that he needed space because he knows that his relationship with you is about to end.

He doesn’t want to be in a committed relationship.

He has strung you along because he was able to get benefits from you that he wouldn’t have gotten if not for his deceit.

However, the time is fast approaching for when he knows you will want this relationship to move on to the next level and he is now on the dating website because he is hoping to find a replacement.

He knew from the start that he would only be able to keep up this lie about wanting to ultimately be in a committed relationship for so long.

By texting you and telling you that he needed space, he is trying to buy some time.

He is hoping that he will be able to use the dating website to find another girl before you catch on to what he is doing and possibly cut him off from your life.

Another reason why he may have texted you to tell you that he needed space but is still using a dating website could be because he is trying to send you a message.

There may be something about you that he doesn’t like.

He may have never told you about it or he may have done so to some extent, but you may have ignored what he told you.

Perhaps, there was a part of him that was hoping that you would have corrected this troubling behavior by now.

However, you haven’t corrected it and he may have texted you to tell you that he needed space in the hopes that you will feel enough pressure that you will make the correction that he wants.

He may have felt that telling you that he needed space was the only way to really get you to start reflecting on how you may have been behaving in the relationship.

Perhaps you will reflect back on the relationship and finally understand that there are certain areas in your behavior that need to be corrected.

He may be hoping that you come to this epiphany.

Until then, he is still going to be using dating websites because he isn’t entirely certain if you will be able to make this reflection and take the necessary steps to make changes.

In still using a dating website, he is giving himself the opportunity to start building relationships with other girls, just in case his relationship with you doesn’t work out.
