    I think the fact that you mentioned that "he says we have no strings" provides the best insight to the answer.

    Just because he wants to be monogamous doesn't indicate that he thinks anything will come from your relationship, and I wouldn't base any decision you make on that fact.

    You need to decide how you feel about him, and about the whole situation. If you really like him, and you are okay with your current situation, it wouldn't hurt to see what happens.

    I have a feeling, however, that you probably aren't really okay with things the way they are, otherwise you wouldn't be worried about it.

    Talking to him about it is always the best idea. I imagine you are probably afraid of scaring him off, and you might, but it would definitely provide you the answer you are looking for.

    The most likely answer is that even he doesn't know exactly how he feels or what he wants to happen. Since he just got out of a long relationship, he is probably hesitant to dive into something else. If that is something you are willing to deal with, great. If not, you always need to do what makes you happy. Your own feelings should help you make this decision.

    That just means he is Shagging you until someone else that he likes better comes along.The longer you keep seeing him ,the worse it is going to hurt.I think you should let him go, unless you are into that kind of pain.

    He's not stringing you along. He told you flat out what he wants and expects.

    See how it goes? It's going to keep going exactly the way it has been. At least he isn't sleeping with anyone else (of course, we don't KNOW that for sure), but if a "real" relationship is what you want... you're not going to get it from him, and he's already made that pretty clear.

    Go where? He's made himself clear and his honesty should be appreciated. You on the other hand need to assert yourself.
    Judging by the naivity of your question. Date someone less experienced.

    I have been in a very similar situation before I ended up staying with him for far too long and he was only using me because he was lonely. I broke it off after 5 months as i wanted something more.
    Babe don't waste your time go out there and find someone who can appreciate you right now and not leave you guessing about where your relationship is headed

    Truthfully, he just said he doesn't love you, but unless he is just saying that to protect you, you have nothing in a heart-shape to him. Saying he only wants to sleep with you proves that he doesn't care, unless it isn't like him to say that. He may only want to push you away so you don't get hurt, but I don't know him. Most likely, he doesn't love you, he just wants you for that sinful flavor. Move on to someone who actually cares for you, truthfully.

    he isn't stringing you along... as he said... NO STRINGS... he wants to bang you and be free to find other girls too. I do not know how he could be more honest.

    If you expect a tiger to be anything but a tiger you're lying to yourself. He's made it pretty clear what he is and what he expects out of his relationship with you. If that's fine with you, then great. If it isn't, move on.

    If your having fun - see how it goes. If you want something more, tell him that, then don't cave into more 'visits'. If he feels the same way you'll do he'll come crawling back within 2 weeks and want a relationship. If not, then he wasn't the one.

    I think you're a rebound. If you don't have a problem with that, enjoy it while it lasts. If you want something more, he is NOT the one for you.

    Get out now. He's stringing you along. If you ever even have to ask, He's stringing you along. Preserve your dignity and sanity and ditch him. There are plenty more people out there...especially if the only thing you require from a relationship is sleeping with someone once a week.
