Should I just leave him alone and give him time or maybe I have totally scared him off?

Question - (9 November 2009) 3 Answers - (Newest, 22 December 2009)
A female Australia age 41-50, anonymous writes:

I am a bit confused by this guy. I see him around my local pubs quite a bit and he always had lots of girls around him. I thought he was a bit of a jerk. I had a feeling he had a thing for me because he would always stare at me and look at me when he was hugging other people.

Anyway to cut a long story short about a month ago we were at a pub and when it was leaving time we all went outside and I was talking to some of his female friends. He came straight up to me and asked me for my number and then we all went back to his house. We all had heaps of fun and we slept in the same bed but didn't have sex. He dropped me off on Monday. He then texted me on Wednesday asking how my day was etc we sent quite a few texts back and forth over the next few days. We ended up meeting again on Friday and I went back to his house and nothing happend. HE dropped me off on Sat and we texted that night.

We were texting every 3 or 4 days but it seemed like I had to iniate it after the first few times he did. WE would text for hours and they would be long texts.

So a couple of Fridays ago I saw him at my local and he comes up to me and starts rubbing my arm. Now I didn't want a bar of this as I thought he could of at least texted me and asked if we wanted to catch up. So I was fully ignoring him and stuff. He was asking why I was so angry at him and stuff. Then he went and made out with this chick on the balcony and walked her past me.

So i saw him out the front and he came to speak to me and we had a bit of an argument and apparentally I slapped him (totally uncalled for and I have apologised) I sent him a text and nothing back.

So at the pub on Sunday (his best mate who is a girl invited us) I saw him at first I didn't speak to him. She told my mate that he was really into me until the incident (he didn't tell her I slapped him)

So anyway I talked to him and apologised and he is like I appreciate the apology blah blah blah and then I said to him "I really liked you and I Thought you liked me but didn't feel that way when you just rocked up to the pub and I was the one making all the contact" and he was like "I Can't believe you couldn't tell I liked you blah blah" he ended up storming off.

I sent him another text last Monday and apologised and told him that I would love to hang out again but I will leave it up to him. He was going away west until today.

So it's been a week and I haven't heard from him. What I am wandering is do you think I should just leave him alone and give him time or maybe I have totally scared him off? Which is annoying because I did think there was a connection there..

Yeah he might be it's just weird. I don't know if he is playing it cool or just playing haha. Until the slap he was texting me all the time and stuff. And up until Sunday night we were kinda just on speaking terms. I know he was fully burnt by his ex so maybe he just doesn't want a full on thing and is just playing the field. I might just leave it until I see him next and just see what happens. We haven't slept together or anything.

So it's still going on with us. Like I will see him out and ignore him and sometimes say hi and just really weird. Last night I saw him out and he was like "oh I am so glad that your out, it's really good to see you" and was all over me. And he is like. "send me a text, I smashed my phone and lost all my contacts" So when I got home I sent him a text just saying "Hey it's Emma, here is my number" and that's it. He didn't respond. so I am just going to leave it. I am not chasing him. If he is interested he will contact me. But I am just not to sure of what he is playing at.
