Does he need some "cave time"???

Question - (8 April 2010) 1 Answers - (Newest, 8 April 2010)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I just spent a lovely couple of days with the man I've been dating for 3 months.

We live a couple of hours away, we talk quite a bit but don't get to see each other all that often, so when we do it's quite special.

I went down to see him this time seeing as previous times he's come up to see me, and we had a lovely time just being lazy and watching movies and eating pizza and making love, and we kissed and cuddled all night, then the next day we woke up and got dressed and he dropped me at the station because he had training at 11 (he's a cagefighter), we kissed and he said text me when you get home.

So I text him when I got home:

'Hey baby, I managed to get myself home about an hour ago so you can call off the search party now lol. I had a bit of a think on the train, and I realized I really wanna make us work. You're gorgeous, I feel proper comfortable with you, you're a proper safe guy, and you're really good with me. Where have you been all my life lol?!! I really like how things are going between us, and I just wanna keep taking it slowly and being how we are :)

Hope you're ok, hope you sorted your ear out (he'd injured it in training). Talk soon baby. Mwah xxx'

And guess what... HE DIDN'T REPLY!

Now I'm worried.

I don't know if I put my foot in it by expressing how I feel, if I've overwhelmed him, if he's in shock, if he's thinking about what he wants between us, if he's not interested anymore, if he felt no need to reply and is gonna call me in a couple of days or if he's just busy.

I don't know what to do! I haven't contacted him since that's for sure, I don't wanna look like a bunny boiler, but I don't know why he didn't say something to that.

Me and him have talked about how we feel about each other before, and he's always said to me he really appreciates how honest I am with him, so what's the deal?! I'm telling him how I feel!

Now I don't know if I'm overreacting or what, but when I was with him, he was saying and doing so much to let me know he was into me - he said 'I feel so lucky that I'm with the girl that everyone wants', he was constantly telling me how beautiful I am, he said we make a good couple, he said I'm way too sexy for him, he cuddled me and held my hand all night, he asked about my life, about my family, and arranged plans for a couple of weeks - why do all that if you're not into me?!

I don't know what to do now. He knew I liked him before, and he even laid in bed telling me how happy he was!

What do I do?

Do you think he just needs some time to figure things out or what? Does he need some 'cave time'?

Should I contact him again?

Help!!

EbonyBlossom agony auntDo you know for sure that he got the text? Check your delivery reports.

Sometimes I send my boyfriend a sentimental text, and he doesn't always reply because he doesn't know what to say! Sometimes guys just aren't good with words. But I know for a fact my boyfriend loves me to pieces so if he replies because he's speechless and doesn't know how to beat what I said then I'm a bit flattered!

Maybe he loved you so much that he thought you were too good and wouldn't want to be with him for the rest of your life. So he'll need time to get used to the idea, he could just be really shocked.

Call him and tell him you're worried about what you said. Don't accuse him of anything, just say you're scared that you hurt or worried him by what you said.
