By the way, I asked him thrice to breakup with him and he said no. Move on, sister. The answer was: He has to look how to fit me in, as he is very busy with his 2 business (which are real checked it out online). He bought me my fave chocolate bar which i feel was an excuse to come over to see me, unfortunately it was the night i couldnt make. We have hooked up but lately, we do see each other when we can (he currently works out of town). HELP! If youre worried about them knowing your info, then get something like Google Voice. any answers,is he interested or am i wasting my time? We talked on the phone a few times and he was very clear that he was very interested and wanted to meet asap. I would prefer an invitation for a nice dinner, glass of wine and conversation somewhere quiet with a nice ambience to get to know each other better and see how the chemistry feels! Last 3 nights nothing One day when I was in his apartment and enjoyed his cocktails I was totally drunk then we had sex then. Try to move on. I wonder how long it will take him to get stable what hes going thru sounds very intense so I want to give him the benefit of the doubt but then Im like how long does it take to send a txt message. Still nice texts. When I dont send a Good Morning text I get one from him about the same time every day. Matched with the guy 2 months ago. I grew to despise this man. I recently was messaging someone on line and he soon gave me his phone number. I know what a real man does when hes into someone, but Im not sure in this scenario what it all means? Men love to lead women on them go for the grab, another thing never tell a guy you havent dated in a while bc they will prey on your weekness. But I told him you have a dating app on your phone. But this seems all not going very smooth. I mentioned communication was very important for me; he promised me it wont never happen again. Since we are friends in real life, we met up (just both of us) to discuss about school stuff. So its not just the guys who are making this the norm. I forgot to mention i would ask him very direct questions like, what city do you live in? and he would tell me the region and it happened with other questions also where i would ask him a direct question and he was either vague or tried changing subjects. I dont think there is such thing as being too interested. 2 months later: still no call or video chat , only messages. You are so right. I started texting a guy I met on the a dating site on Facebook. And it worked! We already know that we like eachother, I just dont know what to do about getting him to go dating again. I work alot and He runs his own business, so i know his too busy to meet and text often, but we still have made plans to meet up when both our schedules work, but because of his way of texting Im getting confused on his signals, he likes me or just wants a hook up? Bp, I been dating this guy for over two weeks and hes and nice guy and things seemed good with us we had plans for this weekend but he had to work but he hasnt text me back yet now I am not sure what to do. That's a HUGE excuse to keep you at arm's length. I know hes been moving into a new place but I am beginning to question was he sincere in his interest. This is a throwaway account. He used to respond to all your texts, but now he replies only a couple times a week. And if he cant, dont jump in bed with him. Bp. He sends pictures of him and his children and I enjoy the texts and seems to be moving forward but slowly has not asked inquired about an in person date and our texts are usually about our day to day activities and kids. We talked, kissed, and he fed me pretty words, like he knew I was something amazing and hes never felt this way. I dont even see him as someone who is even in your life. I called him out to be honest and fair, and to not use my time and energy, when he is not interested, because I am not looking for a pen pal. we start texting and at times we talk on the phone. Next! Until then, live your life. The truth is Im a shy and reserve woman. Sorry, this post was deleted by the person who originally posted it. I told him I was at the beach and where is my invite? He also did not want to interrupt my workout. I could tell this was a big deal to him and that on the phone I may not be able to understand, I could see how that might happen when we had lunch. Right? He texts me Good Morning every morning and says goodnight every night and we text off and on throughout the day sometimes about mundane things, sometimes deeper conversations. Well, after in text he said he had a good time and would hang out again, but couldnt see it working. Now I havent heard from him in over a week. Very busy though. step back from this and look at how you (mis)connected with this guy. If a man is not fluent in digital literacy, thats a red flag for me. I know guys arent big texters, but I dont think its asking too much for a Good Morning text or ANYTHING before 7:30 in the evening. So while havjng flaws doesnt make him a no, how he communicates with me over the phone will help me understand him a lot. My situation isnt complicated, its just more about being new to the dating game. He says he likes me and wants to get to know me better but hasnt taken the time to see mewhat are you thoughts on this situation? If youve been seeing him for a while, maybe you could say itd be nice to hear from him more in between dates. Am I wasting my time or is it too early to tell. Im confused at his signals. Please dont spend your emotional energy on a man who may have disappeared. He said depending on if he decides to actually not go out tonight (1:30am), he should be awake, and is usually up at that time anyway. I met a guy through a dating app and we have known/ been talking to each other for two months now. About the men, youre just meeting the wrong guys. He has never said how pretty you are ornot even no compliments . My response: Hi there handsome! At the end of the day, I gave it back to him and didnt have the thought of meeting him again because he was a lil bit flirty and flashy. We spoke everyday morning to might in texts thats eh you own Im like em wdf dude?advice welcomed pleads, Yes, sounds like you are being bread-crumbed, or as I call it, pinged. This is why starting off a relationship with lots of texting sets up unrealistic expectations and lets these pingers use you to stroke their ego. I waited for 24 hours to passed and just replied I understand.. 5) Youre best off finding people who are comfortable, open and honest with themselves (and you) to show themselves to you. I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt, but my gut is telling me run the other way. We did a few days of DMing. Recently I noticed his texting was becoming less active. What others think isnt important. Ifyou dont hear back, move on. But three days is not a long time. If he only talks about daily life Most likely, he does not have someone to share with his daily experiences. Give that some consideration, ok? And you wont either until you ask him. The next day he was asking my friend to give me his number and text him. If youre looking for excitement stick with him. I was floored really not like him. And thats what makes it all so confusing. Take a breath. How awful if I had said yes and then on the date I dont want to but feel like Im obliged to. He works Long hours I might see him 2 or 3 times in a month Hook up. Understanding men does not have to be complicated. Ever since hes been texting on and off every few days, always busy and tired, he was also away with the girl for 2 weeks vacation. He has two kids by the way. If theyre canceling dates and texting less, theyre likely pulling away or exploring their options, she says. Then one day, you notice a shift. Then he started writing more and more and I was thrown off guard. I asked him about it I asked him why he had so many profiles on facebook. Check out the content of his text messages to you. I gave him an opportunity to say If he wants to meet and he said he cant wait when it happens. Thank you for writing this. The date itself went great, and she texted after saying she had a great time, but hasnt been returning texts or Snapchats much since. The thing is he wont and has not told me he is in a relationship and I dont understand why he doesnt tell me ? He works long hours during he week and he said he only has the weekends for free time. maybe 2ndits just a meeting., I have been texting this guy for the past two weeks in the past two weeks he has made plans to see me three days in a row in both weeks as we go out together during the day n spend hours together is that mean we are in a relationship, Nope! Everybody has issues that they run into, and everyone needs advice every now and again. Im at work or at the store or with my kids and I dont want or need the people around me to hear a 45-minute personal conversation. He isnt. We texted/Snapped for a few weeks then finally met in person. We finally met and went on a date the same day. They talked on and off all day. Im. Move on to a man who is available and interested, ok? I want a man who is not afraid to express himself in person. That I have set a date and he wont commit to it, I gave my phone number and he wont call. I stated in my on line dating profile that I want to date men in my city (New York). During your road trip Id have a grownup conversation with him about whether hes looking for the same thing you are. I married for 14 years and decided to check whats out there before i ruin that what I have. The evening of the 3rd date he was running late at work. Bp, Hello. This shows that you value your connection and want to take it to the next level without coming across as too eager. He said he would like to talk again. And he doesnt live all that far away. Theres a piece of me that makes this whole experience feel less magical if thats all he is. Am I being too harsh since Im the one that has delayed the in person meet up? Ive ignored him and even not responded to him and he doesnt go away. He says he just wants a friendship with me and i think that is fine but how are we having a friendship if I never see him he also sends me bible versus. He is quite a social guy and he has many friends of which he visits often and talks/chat to everyday whereas I am more of a person that can stay home all day and talk to no one and I would be totally fine and happy with that. Its not because his mother is sick. He texted mostly after this meet up with some phone calls. Why isnt he coming to meet you NOW? So the next day I said hi to him via text we chat hea responsive and wishes me luck in my job interview telling me not to worry but its been 9 days since our first date and no sign of a second other than him thinking of coming to see me!!! He deserves more. Hi! I mentioned I had the weekend off. Weve talked on the phone a couple times, but everything else has been texting. Bp. The thing is, hes asking me such pointless things, like whats your favourite colour, What are you doing now? What are your plans for tomorrow? I am not a big texter I feel that if I want to tell someone something specific, Ill text (Im not a technophobe) but Im not one for conversing for ages back and forth pointless things. He should SHOW you with an action that took effort. He said thanks for all the encouragement and kind words and that he hopes I am doing very well and staying safe in quarantine. However, if it continues, Avgitidis says its a sign of something else: Youre not a priority so one of those things I think is if theyre not responding to your text message in the evening after work Youre on the back burner.. We fell out of touch again since he was in a relationship. Its now 6 weeks and I can say the texting I try not to do as its so easy to misread. If he doesnt, and keeps just texting, Id ask him to stop. Men dont lose attraction all that easily they simply decide or come to a conclusion that youre not the one. Then there is this small chance that hes for real, so I let it go on. Some people are too nice to tell me that. Good for you. But I am pulling back. i was messaging non stop with a nice man,we met up after 2 days for coffee,still talking away face to face,arranged a dinner date 5 days later,inbetween we constantly messaged,met for dinner,talked non stop again,met next night for another dinner,both at resturantes,no home visits! Heres some more: https://datelikeagrownup.com/talk-man-something-thats-bugging/ Bp. We kissed passionately and I felt something there. For almost a year, I took a shot at getting to know someone before getting to sit across from him, touch him, laugh with him. He has said that he has told her about me and he has sent her one of my profile pictures from my Facebook page and he says that she is very happy and that he told her that I was her new mom. Bp. Not the sexy kind. Flaking and distracting. Then the next day I didnt hear from him at all. But hes not a man who will turn into a relationship. Is he just a player? We began texting, and I learned that he recently moved from very far away to care of his dying mother. Point taken, that makes complete sense. He now texts me every day, but when I answer, his responses are VERY brief and really leave me struggling to know how to respond. He used texting to avoid full attachment and bolted. Im wondering if maybe he is in a relationship and thats why he wouldnt text me directly So frustrating!! I thought he was just being super polite and taking it slow. Since then weve been constantly texting each other on a daily basis. Finally I sent him a Snapchat and he responded. He told me that he has been hurt by so many women and that he wants a woman who would love him and the way he loves her. We both dont set expectations since he is far away. Hi June. He shows signs through body language and speaking to me differently than others. I know hes stressed from work- hes trying to find a new job and really hates his current one. These guys disappear. I just wanna hear some advices from you. Its far from it. Right away we were texting each other like crazy and asking each other tons of questions. As much as those texts getting left on read with no response can ache, its worth noting that some people arent allowed to have their phones at work, or tend to put them away during the day. A lesson from that story might just come into play in this week's lesson in Matthew 9-10, Mark 5, and Luke 9 . Id do that all over again. If he can, great! Continue getting to know him. But then, I also thought, okay, maybe he wants me to be more expressive and assure him I still like him? He is 40 and been married twice already. Advice please, Hell yes ask him directly, Julie. We have text a lot, and he really doesnt live that far from me. So, I just send: call me on ..(my number). We spent the night together. Bp. I would really like to get us to know each other better and I know distance is a problem, but there are always solytions to each problem as long as both sides agree to that.. The weekend came, it was a great time, a reunion party weekend with friends almost , no time to really talk and get to know one another. Im not nudging him again as I dont want to look desperate. Hes texting and calling and not being able to see you often. Remember that you dont really know each other and you have no idea what his real story is. We are trying to set up a day to get together (hopefully) this week but because of both of our work schedules we havent been able to narrow down a day and time but we both really want to go out. As a note there are a lot of women who prefer the phone call and the quickie meeting. Sometimes they feel incapable of discussing matters like like, love, and lust. But any way I went he chose RSL club to meet near where I live. Hes not looking for the same thing you are. . Your advice is definitely going to help me sort this situation out! I think you know the answer. The messages were always short and I was wondering why he even bothered to message me so I asked. If this is the case, he may have a crush on you. He acts like theres chemistry and no dealbreakers discussed in all our texts. Even on weekends when he is home literally doing nothing, he doesnt make plans with me, he just texts all day. One day just disappearing without a trace when he finds someone close to him or is convinced you'll never meet anyways. Im very confused. But now this week he is texting me only. Texting stopped that night due to us both being busy with finals coming up. Why did I feel like I needed validation for living a full, beautiful life? Dont focus on this guy, ok? He texts me very rarely and if he does he just sends a meme. He seems as a busy guy, but texting only? I took it as he never was that into me Im just what ever he must be lonely. I told him he had a kiss coming his way and that I was looking forward to seeing him again soon. These are qualities you are projecting on to him based on a few days of texting. Should I ask him directly or is that sounding too needy? My problem comes with him having a difficult time at the moment. Right I have a bit of a twister for you He texted. There are so many more out there. But I really loved him. If hes interested he will get in touch. I just dont want to miss out on a chance to be with him. Oh please stop waiting. And he wants to send me flowers. i dont wana seem eager or desperate he has asked me of my self, via back and we talked on phone, skyped web camhe tried kiss me on the first date but i said nope. Bp, Just remember that you do NOT know this man. He said he had a good time,I did too.. (but no concrete date) I was feeling a little bit annoyed that I had to push this man to action all the time! Texting lacks the context you get from in-person conversations; without seeing him, it can be hard to tell his tone, mood, and body language. We swapped numbers and have been texting pretty much everyday since then. He said he started to date someone around the time he met me. Ask him to call or ask you out. Im grateful for the lesson, even though my heart is hurt, because I know now the red flags of emotional immaturity. Next time, get to the face-to-face dates asap! I also agree with #4. I feel like Im smarter than this. Melissa stayed up until 3 AM texting with her dude. Sorry, I havent an idea of whats up. Thank you for reminding me AGAIN about texting etiquette. But too darn bad. He makes an effort to spend time with you. He didnt say wasnt interested because he IS interested. Or should I trust what he is saying? I will not sleep with him until he invest in me and I need to be in a committed relationship before sleeping together.

After everything we shared how can he just stop talking to me and not tell me anything and disappear. Others are saying I should ask him out. He said he is a cautious person but it has now 14 weeks of texting and I am getting bored. Bp. The next day I hear nothing. More than anything, this entire adventure was a lesson in manifesting the love that I hope to find. I responded coldly to his last message and then stopped responding. We chat for hours on end on the dating site and he asked me for my number. but he can only say for sure if he likes her girl by meeting her After that i decided to take the leap and ask him when hes free and ill clear my schedule. Men are very hesitant about revealing how they feel. Bp. Sounds really childish and dumb as I type it but its the reality of my situation. Im sorry to say but I think youre in love with a fantasy.

Ive seen countless women create completefantasies and get drawn in often before they even meet a man. I thought the second date went well at the end he even said see you next week?
