A female Australia age 51-59, *at71 writes:

I met a guy online, we have been talking via text for about the last 6 weeks. I usually initiate the conversations. We chatted every day to start with now I tend to leave it to every few days. Our conversations are really good (fun and very slightly flirty) and we've got to know quite a lot about each other. he always texts back straight away. I know his profile said he wanted to meet someone to hang out with to start with and just see where it goes from there, which I'm happy with. I happened to be out with friends a couple of times and suggested that maybe we catch up for a drink. The first time he said he didn't feel like going out which was fair enough but maybe next time. The next time I suggested catching up ( I'd mentioned it early in the week and again on the Friday I was going out) he just came back with a reply that said he would see what he was up to. So I just said no worries text me if your out. He replied no worries I'll text you if I'm out and about. I didn't get anything. I feel like not bothering to text him back, as I would like to meet but he seems to be playing hard to get. Any suggestions?

Honeypie agony auntI don't think he is playing hard to get either. I just don't think he is as interested in meeting as you are.

Otherwise, I think he would have found the time and taken the effort to meet up.

sorry :(

Wait and leave it to him to make contact. That at least will show if he's interested. But he sounds low key, so I'd not put much hope into seeing him.

Trinklett agony auntHe likes having someone to chat with from time to time. He's probably a bit bored and is using you to kill time. I'll forget him and look elsewhere; unless you're ok with his terms. If he contacts you, play it down and don't reply all the time. If he's interested, he'll arrange that meeting.

aunt honesty agony auntTo be honest it sounds to me like he is not interested in meeting with you. Am sure he enjoys the conversations that you both have but I think that might be as far as it goes. The worst thing about meeting someone over the internet is that for all you know he may be in a relationship or even married and just looking for someone to talk to. I think you should back off. Don't contact him and see if he contacts you. If he doesn't well then he is not interested so you should just move on and try and meet someone else.
