Let’s be real: sometimes, a guy wants to have fun without the whole “boyfriend vibe” turning a casual thing into something more. If you’re aiming to keep things light and avoid giving off those commitment cues, here are some practical (and a little humorous) ways to dial down the “boyfriend energy” while still keeping things fun and friendly.

1. Ease Up on the Small Gestures

First off, those small, considerate gestures—like bringing her coffee just the way she likes it, or leaving a cute text “just to check-in”—might seem innocent, but they’re like kryptonite for the casual vibe. To avoid giving “relationship energy,” keep things more in-the-moment. Be friendly, but not overly attentive to the details that make her think you’re memorizing her quirks for the long haul.

2. Avoid the “Predictable Routine
Routine is a relationship magnet. Shake it up by not setting weekly “date nights.” Have fun, be adventurous, and keep the planning loose to emphasize that you’re not following a relationship playbook.
