Hi SW People 馃槂

I have a dilemma. So I finally decided to try online dating late last year with a guy from another continent, another race and different religion. I started talking to this guy back in 2021 and though he was a rude son of a biscuit we hit it off. I liked him from day one and months later he was telling me how he loved me blah blah blah 馃檮.Y'all know how difficult it is to believe guys especially someone you've never met. We started occasionally doing video calls and voice calls and before long I was in love. Of course I never told him this till we started dating late last year.

We dated for 3 months and he broke up with me multiple times for stupid reasons. He's a spoilt brat (he told me this himself) and is used to having his way. He'd apologize and I'd take him back and life would go on. What I love about this guy is that he's genuine about his feelings he tells you exactly how he feels you don't have to second guess what he says. He gives me his undivided attention each day. At first I thought he was entertaining other girls but I doubt he'd have time for me if he was that kind of guy.

He told me he broke up with his ex in 2018 and since then hasn't been able to move on. In February this year which was 4 months into our relationship he broke up with me because I refused to send him nude pictures. That's just not my thing. Next thing he blocked me. I was heartbroken because I thought that we could at least be friends if we couldn't date. I mean we were friends for 2 full years why couldn't we go back to that right. I don't have a problem finding a guy in my country and race so I'm not really short of suitors. Two weeks later he texts me apologizing to me telling me that he can't live without me and loves me. We agreed to stay friends but the spark is still there. Problem is he doesn't want to date me if I won't send him nudes and to be honest I don't mind not dating him if that's what is expected of me 馃檮.

My question is can you date someone online without sharing nudes?

Cause my friends don't share nudes with their boyfriends. The only difference is their boyfriends live in the same city unlike me who only talks to this guy online.

I've had several online relationships. Only one of them sent me nudes, and she did it without my needing to ask. It's definitely not a requirement. If he won't respect your boundaries, i have to question how pure his love is.

@ViciDraco I told him if dating him is conditional maybe it's not love to begin with. He was like saying I love you daily is not a relationship and I was like sharing nudes doesn't proof love for someone. He called me difficult and complicated. I reminded him that he knew from day one that I don't do nudes and he has like I thought you'd change for me and I was like I'm not controlled by love.

@Hotchocolatezebra that's really good on you for knowing your boundaries and demanding they be respected. A person not sharing nudes sounds like a pretty dumb relationship dealbreaker to me. It can hurt to realize that your heart grew attached to someone who isn't going to respect who you are. But if his intention to begin with was to have you change for him then it is probably best that you move on.
