Why Hasn’t He Kissed You Yet? 7 Reasons He’s Holding Back (4 of 4)

6. There Might Be Other Girls

This one might be tough to swallow, but you can’t rule out the possibility that you aren’t the only girl he’s dating. If he’s passed on multiple opportunities to kiss you, it could be that he’s trying to figure out how he feels about you. Or he’s weighing his options. He doesn’t want to lead you on, which is noble of him because it’s better than being kissed only to have him ghost you. If you feel something is wrong and are okay with asking him where he stands, do it. 

7. He Doesn’t Want to Ruin Friendship

If you were friends before giving dating a try, your past history together might be making him extra cautious. The fear of ruining what’s been a meaningful bond is enough to make him think twice about getting involved with you romantically. If these concerns are on your mind as well, it is best to be honest and open about it. Dating a previously platonic friend can be a risky proposition, but the risk is easier to handle when you know where you both stand.
