Creepy or sweet?

[Maleah]

Let's say you were dating a guy. You guys have known each other for a few months now, became good friends, and then decided to date. You haven't spent the night at each other's houses or anything. Just spent a handful of day long dates together. Things are going great. He says all the right things, you have a lot in common, and there's chemistry. Less than a few weeks into the relationship, he tells a mutual friend that he thinks you're going to be the next woman he marries.

Mutual friend of course spills the beans.

Creepy this early into the relationship?

Or sounds like love at first sight on his end?

What do you think?

I think it just depends, but I lean toward sweet. ;)

[Shana]

It's not creepy. Brian knew that he wanted to be with me forever after we had just seen each other twice. It can happen ;)

Well, could go either way, I guess. Be flattered, but also be cautious.

[Mary]

I think it just depends, but I lean toward sweet. ;)

Ditto!

[Jo]

As long as next also means the last woman he marries, it is sweet.:giggle

[Jeri]

Depending on the man, it could be creepy - but I also lean towards sweet. I'm pretty sure Jim told his roommates something similar about me in the early days of our relationship.

[Kate]

I do rather think it's sweet.

Totally agree with Tobye, it's a huge compliment but at the same time early in ANY relationship you need to be cautious, I've known my fair share of total nutters in my life (and my sister dated most of them :rofl The few she didn't seem to gravitate towards my MIL :giggle )

I'd take it as a good sign he doesn't just see you as a casual fling- I think that's always a risk with men when they know you're single with kids, but at the same time the fact he is someone who is looking for commitment doesn't mean you shouldn't keep a guard at least in the early days

And yeah... Jo is right- as long as next means last ;) (one of my cousins appears to be trying to out-do Gza gza Gabor with the number of spouses he's had and he's my age!)

ITA. I'm pretty sure Bertram talked about marriage in the first few weeks we were dating... it just took us awhile to actually get there. LOL

I too think it is sweet. but yes...be cautious. I knew my husband was the one I wanted to spend the rest of my life with after a few dates. And now it is going on 19 years later:)

I completely agree, it could be creepy but probably just sweet. Sean and I both knew in a matter of weeks that we were going to get married, without sex.
