writes:Is he interested?I have know a guy a long time through work and when I left I gave him a note just saying "I would like to keep in touch and if you ever want to meet for a coffee or a chat give me a call" I thought this would have no pressure attached and sound casual/informal.He called about 4 weeks later and he invited me to watch him bowling- this evening was lovely and he sent me a text afterwards saying he hoped we could meet again. Our 2nd 'date' was an invitation to a family gathering and again this was a nice afternoon. He was keen to meet up the following weekend and asked me out for the following weekend - we met up with 4 other friends and family and went bowling, followed by a concert, again with his family on Sunday night. Saturday was very relaxed and a fantastic night, however, after Sunday it suddenly felt different.When we get together it is great, however, the issue that gives me worry is that he doesn't tend to keep in touch during the week - he says he does do 'texting' but if I text he tends to not read them properly or doesn't reply.After Sunday he did not suggest a date the following week just said he would give me a call about arrangements for next week. He did not ring or text so I suggested the cinema and he agreed - should I have done this or not?I'm in my 40s and he is in his 50s and I don't know how to play the dating game.... do I have to wait for him to suggest going out and where to go or is it acceptable for me to invite him out occasionally?I like to keep in touch (I'm not needy by the way!) and have sent about 4 texts over the course of the week but rarely get much back which makes me feel that he is not really interested and I'm just someone to go out with.Please any indications to help a confused, 40 something would be great.
