I need some good advice! Ive been dating this guy for 4 months.

The first 3 months were great! He text me all the time, called me, spent lots of time with me and the sex was great. But the last month his text and calls have been less and less. I haven't seen him as much either.

The last couple of weeks have been a date a week and not on the weekend. Ive played it cool, not chased, don't initiate contact etc, just have really gave him his space. But this week I havent seen him since last thursday 10 days ago and the last time he text me was tuesday 5 days ago.

When we do talk I dont ask or question him just have a good time. But he brings up excuses like his kids or work etc. I just dont say anything. Im thinking when he texts me, and he will, that i should just be done with him and not respond, move on.

Should I call it quits or hang in there a little longer?

I think you should verbally call it quits.. meaning don't just stop answering his texts. Call him and tell him yourself that you want to call it off, otherwise you're being just as silly as him not contacting you ever.

If he tries to keep you and puts up a bit of a fight for you calling it quits, then you'll know that maybe he is really just busy, and tell him ok, we can keep dating, but i would really appreciate a little bit more of your time so that i know what's going on with you.

You can't keep me waiting around all week.. i have other people in my life too.

Or something like that.

Hey there!

I think you should just call it quits. 5 days without any sort of contact or meeting is pretty long and the more excuses he makes, the more reasons you have to move on.

I think you've got the right idea on pretty much everything, so he seems to be the one causing the problem- so yup, it seems the right time to move on.

And if he does question your choice then tell him honestly how you've been feeling about his lack of contact.
