It was before a long holiday where we were both had plans to leave the country and I did not want to push to see him again, so things stayed where they were.I bump into him again last Thursday. First thing he asks me is : "why haven t you called me so we could have dinner?" I replied jokingly that if it is the way girls do in Australia, it s not the way we do in Europe. We kept on chatting, it was nice, he gave me some compliments, etc. He emailed me the day after to ask my number to invite me to dinner "at some appropriate moment".I replied the day after with my number. Since ... silence. It will be a week tomorrow. My dating experience says that till 3-4 days after numbers are exchanged for potential dinner, some progress has to be made on the planning front. I am now actually feeling archived like a card in a Rolodex. I don t appreciate. I find it very, very rude and careless although he does not seem the type from the little I know. Could it be a cultural difference? Am I overreacting? Better try to know what s going on or not to show any interest? Advice appreciated, I would like to make the right move, even if it s to do nothing at all. Reply to this Question

 perhaps he has some unseen circumstances that has fallen on his lap and he has become busy. but i would of thought he would of said or done something. just wait another week and if no response then obviously their is something afar wrong. he is obviously wanting to do something as he seems to be interested. but until he calls for that dinner you wont know what his intensions are. perhaps hes nervous their can be many explanations but give him one more week and if no response then message him or something to see what has happened dont seem desperate just enquire what hes been up to. remember he is still a free agent so their for he has no obligation to you but perhaps hes just been busy he is the only ones with answers just becareful how you ask the questions. hope that helps in some way good luck aphex xx
