There is a man 10 years younger than me that I was with every day for 10 working weeks in a training class, during that time, he pursued getting to know me, and as the weeks progressed, I got the distinct feeling that he likes me and is interested in me in that romantic way....but now we rarely see each other except for brief moments where he is always distracting me and grinning and trying to talk to me when I am on the phone....he emailed me in response to a note I gave him, after calling three times in one week trying to catch me to talk, and he said that we could hang out when ever I wanted, and that he was going to call me on a Fri, but he did not and I had sent him an e-mail inviting him over for dinner and a movie, and I got no response from the e-mail either, and then I sent an e-mail apologizing for scaring him off if he thought I was being too forward....then I saw him on Sunday aft at work, and he flirted with me big time again, but we could not talk, he was supposed to let me know if he could help me install something this week at my home, but I have heard nothing from him....During these two weeks he has been without a car as he totaled his and money is tight, what I think is he may not have been home all week, but staying with someone else that could drive him to work, he has to be in at 6 am, I just hope it was his mom and not a girl....He also has a child that he shares custody with on weekends, and the only day off work that we share is a Sat when he has her.....I don't think it is impossible, however, for us to get together, but I am perplexed at the no responses from my e-mails, and then his subsequent flirting behavior.....do you think he is just telling me he is not interested, is he too busy just now, without a car so he can't ask me out, or did I turn him off asking him over after he said we could get together anytime? I don't have an opportunity to build on our relationship anymore unless we can see each other outside of work, so should I just forget about him? He claims he does not have a girlfriend, and has been single for the last 5 years, he is 35.....and dating is not an issue where we work, we have different schedules.

 lmao K... hey life's a bitch isn't it? ;o) Seriously you DO need to wait it out or you'll end up putting too much pressure on him and undo everything that's been done. Trust me on this one!

Hi K! ;o)
You just have to be PATIENT here! I think he does like you but he needs to prioritise his life at the moment. He has so much swimming around his head just now. I also think he'll make contact with you again, again you just need to be patient and do nothing. He knows you like him and he likes you too. Once he gets his car back on the road things will be different and he'll have a lot more time on his hands. Until then..... BE PATIENT!!!!
