Context: I’m 19 and completely inexperienced when it comes to dating. Two days ago, my friend, her boyfriend, and I were supposed to go see Backrooms together, but one of the boyfriend’s friends joined us last minute. This guy insisted on paying for my movie ticket, snacks, dinner afterward, and even 3 books when we stopped at a bookstore, and then he drove me home. After the movie, I mentioned that I wanted to see Obsession next because, in my mind, they’re kind of sister movies, and he said we should go see it together, which we did yesterday. He acted the exact same way then too. He’s also going fishing on Sunday, and I’m going with him. I’ve never had a guy act like this toward me before, so I honestly don’t know what to make of it. But I really love it, and I can’t stop thinking about him.
Yeah, I’d be careful with this one. It’s pretty love-bomby, which at this stage in my life just stands out as a red flag.
That said, you’re both young, so he may be legit and just not learned how to not be over the top when into someone lol.
It’s dumb young puppy love behavior. It’s adorable. No need to be so cynical about it. If these kids were ten years older then yeah I’d call it love bombing.
Yea doing all that after seeing a girl for about 2 days is a red flag to me too. I mean, it’s typical for their age but to me it’s still a sign of hella immaturity and perhaps even shallowness.
This isn’t love bombing lol
This is a natural progression. You don’t have to wait a month after meeting someone to go on a date.
I think the paying for everything before they really even met is a little odd, but it matters on how it was done.
