Pray to god he doesn't see this but if he does, sorry, I need to figure it out. I (a guy) met some guys in a candle-lit lounge some nights ago after striking up a conversation and one guy in the group kept staring at me. I'd notice him looking at me as I spoke with another guy and the moment I'd match his eyes, he'd look away. Turns out he's bisexual too. We had mad chemistry. Like obviously we had stuff in common but the stares. The end of the night came and he gave me a REAL hug and said "It was lovely to meet you". He asked for my number and we decided to meet up a few days later.

What I thought was a date was not. Anyway, he immediately said after a bit of walking "Hey, so I just want to express some boundaries quickly. I am already involved in a situationship for 6 months. I really, really wanted to get to know you though." and I became really, really anxious. I said "Sorry... what am I doing here? This is a date, which would mean you are cheating on your exclusive situationship. Bros don't just hug like we did or sit next to each other and stare into each other's eyes like this, no?" and he sighed and was like "Yeah you're right. I don't know, it's quite complicated."

He essentially said he's never met someone like me and it really validated his bisexuality because it reminded him he indeed can have a connection and attraction to someone. He wasn't just saying shit, he did mean that I believe. He called me very cute. I told him how I replayed a video I had made from the bar so I could hear his laugh and he rubbed my leg and said that's really cute. But it took me so long to process everything enough to see bro is in an exclusive thing and we still went on a date that he says he didn't intend to be a date... but he is clearly flirting with me. I stood up and walked away to process things.

We cleared things up after a couple days and communicated and I personally apologized for getting attached so quickly-- if you went months without a real connection and you get one, you kind of lose control chasing it but no less, I CLEARLY put expectations into this-- but there's still no explanation of him flirting back and touching me despite being in this exclusive thing. We agreed to give it a hard reset and meet again under proper pretenses but... What would you advise I do? What would YOU do? Help.
