Ok, so I met a guy. Coincidentally we have the same name. Not like that matters.

We texted back and forth everyday for 3 weeks. We went on our first ay this past Sunday night. He was a gentleman..held open doors...etc. Didn't make a move on me in the movies blah blah.

Afterwards he texted me. I said I had a great time and hope we can go out again. He said he had a good time too and "where was I taking him? :-D".

We still speak everyday..its only been a few days...but I feel like I have to text him first. He responds right away. I get he's busy with work (2 jobs), training in the gym and he has his daughter part time. I feel like hes not as talkatie as he used to be. We said we'll go out this Monday night coming up.

Am I being paranoid and thinking he's not interested since I have to text him first and he's not as talkative or what??

RyanMarie24 agony auntUPDATE: I heard from him around midnight last night. About 5 minutes after my friend posted a picture of a guy friend and I on facebook.

"ive been busy". I dont buy it. It takes 5 secs to text someone and he just happens to msg me right after that pic was taken. Now he has all the time in the world and has been texting me all day.

R1 agony auntAre you still meeting Monday? If this is still on then there is no problem, if he's backed out then there is a problem.

So_Very_Confused agony auntHe's not ignoring you. His need for contact is less than yours. He also has a lot on his plate. His lack of contact does not necessarily indicate a lack of interest.

When my husband and I had just started seeing each other I was insane as he could go WEEKS without contact. We were long distance so it was even more important to me to have contact. EVENTUALLY, after 3 or four months of us seeing each other and getting serious, I had to talk to him about my need for more regular contact (meaning daily as by then we were spending every weekend together). By then he understood my need and request and agreed to a nightly phone call which eventually morphed into a morning phone call at his request. But it was later on in the relationship.

Had I not given him the space and time to miss me and think about me, he has admitted we probably never would have gotten serious.

I've read before somewhere that women fall in love when they are with a man but a man falls in love with a woman when he's apart from her. It makes sense to me now that I've seen it in action. My husband is the first man that I liked but didn't feel the pressure to have a "real" relationship and because of that, I naturally gave him the space to grow to love me.

You have a date on Monday with him. If you don't hear from him before Sunday afternoon, I would call him Sunday afternoon just to confirm the date. NOT text him. Call him. There is no way to know if he even receives the text or responds to it.

So_Very_Confused agony auntsome folks just don't like texting or talking on the phone... it may not be anything.

if you don't text him what happens? do you know? or have you ever not texted and given him the chance to contact you?

wait and see how it goes Monday... I think you may be worrying about nothing.

R1 agony auntIt's hard to tell. See if he cancels Monday night or not. If he cancels he is probably not keen if you go out you will be able to tell from his behaviour whether he is into you or not.

He tests less?? Who ever writes these titles needs to learn to spell!
