A partner with this intention is bored in his relationship.

This is evidenced by his intention to talk to other girls on dating apps under the guise of finding friends.

Dating apps aren’t the first stop to find friends.

A partner who genuinely wants to find friends has a wide berth of options that are far more appropriate than dating apps.

Dating apps are full of temptation.

Anyone who signs up on them with the sole purpose of finding friends is entering a platform whose primary focus is to match people for romantic relationships.

A partner that uses dating apps to supposedly find friends is constantly putting himself in a precarious position.

No matter his intentions, his mere presence on dating apps means that he is constantly exposed to temptation.

A girl pretending to be on dating apps to find friends could easily take a fancy to him.

The truth is, plenty of people who state that they are on dating apps to find friends are either being disingenuous or remain open to the possibility of finding a romantic partner through friendship.

This means she is susceptible to developing feelings for a man she is compatible with, despite her original intention to find a friend.

That man could be your partner.

That being said, it’s hard to believe that your partner’s intentions are pure.

Besides there being far more reliable places to find friends than on dating apps, not mentioning being in a relationship is totally suspicious.

Unfortunately, in not mentioning being in a relationship, he wants to eat his cake and have it too.

He wants to interact with these girls freely.

Informing any of them of his relationship status risks this fluidity.

Fluid conversations can lead to flirting.

Not only is flirting fun, but it also puts conversation on a path that fosters sexual chemistry.

By not mentioning being in a relationship, your partner wants these girls to think he is single.

The idea is to see what else is out there.

Is there a woman out there that is a better catch than you?

He carries this out by masking his behavior under the guise of seeking friendship so as to keep you from being suspicious.

This is a sneaky way for him to see whether there is someone better out there.

He tells you that he is on dating apps with the sole purpose of finding friends and nothing more.

Meanwhile, he doesn’t tell any of these so-called female friends on dating apps that he is in a relationship.

This gives him the bandwidth to mislead these girls into thinking he is single, which could result in flirtatious banter in the foreseeable future.

And make no mistake about it, he intends to flirt back, especially with the girls who are far more attractive than you are.

Any one of these girls could be one he cheats with or leaves you for.

Needless to say, it’s not okay for your partner to use dating apps to find friends and not mention being in a relationship.

The temptation is too great, and his stated intentions are misleading.
