A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I started Talking to this guy almost a year ago. We met in school but didn't see each other much and mainly talked on facebook. This past spring, I was really busy with school and wasn't too romantically interested in him so I never really answered his phone calls or messages too much. He still kept chasing after me and would not stop. Finally I decided to give him a chance. Thinking that maybe he wasn't a loser and really liked me. Over the semester break, we went out a few times and he called me a lot. I began to like him. He was nice, sweet, funny and made me laugh. He gave me flowers and made me feel really special. Something that guys never really did with me.

However in this past month, he doesn't seem to be interested in me anymore. I don't know what I did. He doesn't call nearly as much, never returns his calls and says he wants to hang out or do something with me and he won't. I know he is really busy but why did he chase after me, wanted me to be interested and as I got interested he decided to quit? I mean it hasn't gone away. When we do see each other, he is very happy to see me hugs me and kisses me. He slept over last weekend and we went out the monday before. It reassures me when I hang out with him cause he seems like he really likes me but yet when I call, he never calls back. It upsets me. I don't know if I should start ignoring him again or what.

I used to do that. It's called the thrill of the chase. I'd feel completely infatuated with someone and chase them and chase them until I got them. Then almost the second they agreed to a date or kissed me or whatever, I'd lose interest. It went away now that I've met the man of my dreams, but I went after a lot of people who I dumped almost immediately. Sorry, I know that's not what you wanted to hear. It wasn't an intentional thing, it's just how I felt.

I'm in a similar situation.

And unfortunately I have come to the conclusion that if someone who is outgoing about their feelings starts acting cold and distant it means he's just not that into you.

Cut your losses.

I did. And although it's hard right now, I know that ultimately I'd rather be with somebody who doesn't make me doubt his feelings for me.

Good luck!
