A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

This guy he confuses me when we are together he is all over me in a big way - can't stop staring at me always trying to touch me in some way, holding my hand putting his arm around me etc but then when we are apart he hardly ever texts/calls he'll text me if I text first and he'll answer if I call. My question is should I go by how he is with me or the way he is when we are apart?

some people dont want to talk on phones and text backward and forward all day. if you are trying to rock the boat just accuse him of not being interested or having another girl or something.

Correction* Plenty of people are able to turn on the affection in person and then just aren't bothered their asses after that, so he could well just *not* give a damn about you but in the moments he's with you likes to frisky.

Not enough information OP as neither of those things are conclusive evidence of anything.

Plenty of people are able to turn on the affection in person and then just aren't bothered their asses after that, so he could well just give a damn about you but in the moments he's with you likes to frisky.

On the other hand there are also people that just aren't really that bothered about contact, don't really text first or call for whatever reason but it doesn't mean they're not interested it can just mean they're like me a person who doesn't initiate contact unless I have something meaningful to say.

Why not just test him and not contact him until he contacts you first. It's possible he's just lazy and used to you doing all the work when it comes to contact and has take for granted that you will. So don't contact him for the next few days see if he does it first. If he doesn't contact you within a week then I'd seriously question how much he's into you.

You sound very demanding to me. Not everyone wants to text all day. He might be busy.
