Is he interested or not?

Question - (20 January 2014) 4 Answers - (Newest, 20 January 2014)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

2 weeks ago on a Friday night I went out in a nightclub in central London and met a 24 year old banker, who is single and a nice guy. I am 21 years old and go to university about 2 hours away from London. My home is in London (where my parents live), but I live at university.

The 24 year old asked for my number and we texted all day Saturday, Sunday and Monday, he added me on Facebook and Snapchat so I thought he was quite interested in me!

Conversation died on Monday night and we didn't text until a week later, I started the second texting conversation but it was very brief and his reply was to the affect of "I'm good, I've been very busy, you?" I replied and guess what - he didn't reply to my response despite me asking him about work etc

What should I do? Is he interested or not?

Thanks for your advice in advance xoxoxo

Ciar agony auntYou should do nothing and carry on as if you hadn't met this guy.

He may be busy and he may be interested in you but not enough to worry you'll be scooped up by someone else in his absence.

If and when he does contact you again, be cheerful and do NOT make any reference to his delay in responding. That would suggest you were painfully aware of the passage of time because you had nothing else to distract you.

Distinguish yourself from the herd by steering away from sex talk. If you meet up in person put a time limit on your dates and don't spend the rest of the night talking on the phone or texting.

People tend to value what is earned over what is given away freely.

As a university student, you probably have more time on your hands to text than a banker.

So your expectations for contact through text should be minimal.

However, if he really wanted to pursue it, he'd pick up the phone and arrange a date.

He hasn't. He told you he was busy and been abrupt since. He's probably not interested

Guys like to chase .. It comes down to the cavemen days when the bashed us on the heads and took us back to the cave ( wheezing here to an extent )

I've been with my hubby 24yrs since I was 14teen and he's still chasing haha .you were eager ( you need to hold that )

He has put you on the back burner, just incase .. You really don't need some rude twit , do you ?

Then mark this down to experience .. Don't be over keen .. Be mysterious .. Don't be fooled into thinking this something when it even hasn't gotten of the ground .

Be cool .. Chill .. Leave him to it ..

xTheAlmightyDuckx agony auntYou obviously don't know much about this guy as you met him in a club, and its very common for people you meet in clubs to seem all interested and then just stop talking..

Its kinda shitty but it does happen, and as he hasn't replied and the conversation died, it could of meant he was interested and then whatever other commitments he has to his life (such as being a banker) may of taking over.

Its good though that he was interested in you and made conversation as normally people you meet in clubs give you the whole fake number trick :L

But maybe if you feel interested, try and start another convo up and see how long you can keep this one going, if he replys and you manage to get him talking again and you feel you to kinda connect then why not go ahead and see if he is free in a week or so!

However if he does the likely things which many people do and just replys a few times and then doesn't get back to you, then drop him and move on and set it as your goal to try and find a hunkier, muscularly more funnier man in a nightclub next time :)
