I starting learning French and wanted to find someone to practice with. I went on a language exchange website and began talking to this guy. We really got on and were emailing for about 8 months when I casually suggested that we video chat. He was really keen to, even after I avoided the subject after changing my mind. He brought it up so much that I decided to video chat with him. We talked for almost 2 hours. After the video chat we exchanged a couple of emails and he slipped in that he spent the weekend with his girlfriend. He never mentioned he had a girlfriend before seeing me for the first time on FaceTime (I didn't have a profile picture on my account). Anyway, he suggested to video chat again so we did and he brought up his girlfriend again. He knows I don't have a boyfriend because he asked me. This is making me super paranoid... did he only mention his girlfriend after we video chatted because he doesn't think i'm attractive? or does he think I want more than friendship? I enjoy talking to him but I don't want anything romantic at all, that was never what I was looking for. We have video chatted several times now, hours at a time and the last time he spent a long time talking about his girlfriend and the gifts that he brought her. He even sent me a picture of her holding the gifts. Why does he keep doing this?
He is the one to instigate conversation with me, text me, remember little details about me and send me pictures of things relating to our common interests. He also emails me to ask to FaceTime. If he thinks I have feelings for him (which I don't, but maybe did like the attention a little) why would he do this only to talk about his girlfriend constantly? I have never had a male friend before so I can't figure it out. Also it made me feel super paranoid, that he only mentioned his girlfriend after he saw me for the first time. Without sounding arrogant, I get a lot of attention from guys and I am told that I am pretty (of course i'm not everyones type), am I overthinking this?. Why does he keep seeking me out if he has a girlfriend? and why does he keep bringing her up to me? He's 21 btw. Does he just actually just genuinely like me as a friend and feels comfortable around me? That would be the ideal situation for me because I like him platonically also but if he is doing it to rub it in my face for some reason then I wouldn't feel great about it.
