Am I just someone for him to talk to?

A age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Ok so I have been talking to this guy(getting to know him)for about 2 months. We have hung out a couple of times,he has told me he has a crush on me, we text and talk on the phone almost every day. He calls me sweetheart, hun, gorgeous, sweetie and beautiful ect.. But my only problem is that it seems like he's always too busy to spend sometime with me, usually when I talk to a guy we text 24/7 and are always meeting up. Why is this guy different? I know I shouldn't be comparing him to other guys. But why is this guy not putting so much time to get to know me. I think we're old enough to not be shy with each other (I'm 18 and he's 22). and its not like he hasn't been in a relationship with someone cause he's had a few girlfriends already.. So my question is, is he really interested in me? Or is he just having me as someone to talk to?

PunkyPippi agony auntMaybe he prefers in person interaction as opposed to texting. I HATE texting, because you can't see the subtle cues the person gives you through their voice, their facial expressions, and what their bodies are doing.

If he has a crush on you, take him for his word. Does he have a job? Is he in school? He may just be a busy person. Arrange a date with some time in advance so he can clear his schedule.

sparkleworks agony auntI wouldn't say it's a sign that he's not interested in you.

If most of the guys you've dated in the past have been around the same age as you, then this guy is in a very different place in his life being a couple of years older. I don't know what kind of job, responsibilities, etc. that he has, but it's likely that he has less free time than the guys you've been dating throughout your teenage years. You said you talk every day so I don't think that's anything to worry about!

He may also be afraid of coming on too strongly, so he's trying to 'play it cool'. Or it may just be the way he approaches relationships... he obviously puts in a fair amount of effort to give you attention every day, but he's not making it his *whole* life, which is healthy.

I'd say it sounds like things are going pretty well.
