So, I've been seeing this guy for a little over a month and it was really casual. I had really intended it to be a one nighter but we ended up hanging out more. Recently he told me he liked me and I responded that he shouldn't get attached because I would be moving soon and was only looking for a fling. He got really upset but I don't know why. Is it normal for girls to want to be just friends with benefits and no strings attached?
Do you think it's normal?

imo, yes. But I sometimes don't like it, depends on the girl and the situation.
you can't help how you feel, so if you don't want to get serious, then you should clear that up with him now, trust me. I've been there.
Well,
You COULD say your a heartless bitch with no feelings whatsoever...
or you could say you just wanted to ****.
Too many people guilt themselves into being in relationships, what a waste of time. Go with your gut, and yes it's totally normal for both girls and guys to feel that way... doesn't mean you have to act on it, feelings can get hurt so it may be best just to let the person go completely.
People go through different stages in their lives and sometimes people develop different feelings for each other in relationships, (friendships or otherwise). So it's normal in the sense that what you're doing is fairly common and it's normal in the sense that you are in one "place" in your relationship and your partner is in another one, (emotionally speaking). That can be awkward; especially when sex is involved. Sex is an intimate thing and sometimes people give into their feelings and those feelings get hurt when that intimacy they feel is not shared by the person they've been with. I'd say that communication is key. If you're going to be "friends with benefits" you need to make sure you are both talking about "where you are" in the relationship A LOT. Otherwise, someone is bound to get hurt.
The only thing I see wrong here is that you're not charging these fools for your time, get yourself some stupid mug that will wait on you hand and foot and bleed him dry of his cash while getting some nookie on the side from other guys.
