If He Says These 10 Things, He's Just Stringing You Along Until He Finds Someone 'Better' He might seem sweet on the surface, but he has an ulterior motive. Falling in love with someone new is an exhilarating feeling — but it's also scary. How can you be sure the person you're dating is as into you as you are into them? The best relationships are based on people who have the same feelings for each other, but unfortunately, not every relationship is that way. Luckily, there are some hints to look for that tell you what the other person is feeling without you having to ask outright. Listen to the things he says. If these 10 phrases come up often, they're signs he doesn't want a relationship with you, and you should move on with someone who can be the person you deserve. 1. “I wish I had met you sooner.” A guy whose only intention is to take benefit from you will fawn on you with words that will send butterflies to your stomach. By wishing he had met you sooner, he wants to instill in you the idea that he has wasted relationships with other girls and that you’re actually the one who’s worthy of his time and (*sarcasm intended*) efforts. But of course, you won’t believe that right away. You shouldn’t. The sentence itself should already make you question, what happened with his previous dates? And you should wonder how it feels if you were one of the girls in his past and you heard him say this to another, or how many times has he used this sentence as a bait. ---DECRYPTED---
