Question: i've been sexual with this guy for 7 months. in the beginning we were seeing each other several times a week, now we see each other once a week. he tells me no one touches him like me and he cares but he never makes any effort to see me more then once a week. he keeps coming back even when i stop calling him. is he playing on my emotions?

VictorM's advice:

Nah. He's just a guy getting what he can without giving any more than he needs to.

Comments:
Yes, he is playing on your emotions.

He knows you like him, he flatters you, and there is an established routine that gets him want he wants: sex.

Stacey, are you getting what YOU want?
 
Well... saying that he's playing with your emotions is really a cop out and prevents you from facing the truth:

1. Saying it assumes that you can read his mind, which you can't. Paying with one's emotions takes effort. Most guys are too lazy for that.

2. Just about everything can be taken away from you by others (money, health, shelter, job, etc) but your emotions, you own them. They are yours and only you control them. To allow others to play with them is a sign of weakness. Don't allow it.
