Should I just let him pursue me instead?

Question - (31 July 2011) 2 Answers - (Newest, 1 August 2011)
A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

Hi everyone.

Can you tell me if a guy is interested in me if he does not reply to my email? I sent him an email asking him to get together with me but no reponse from him. It has been a week and I happened to run into him at the mall yesterday. I DID NOT ask him about my email or even getting together but as soon as we started talking he explained without my asking how busy he has been and asked me to get together with him in a few weeks when things aren't so busy.

Is he being genuine or is he not really that interested? I never asked him about getting together. He brought it up on his own. But I am having trouble getting past the fact he didn't respond to my email in the first place and only explained because he ran into me. Wouldn't he be able to make some time to answer it if I was a priority, even if he has been as busy as he claims?

What do you guys think?

Should I give him another chance or let him be the one who pursues me if he really wants to?

Thanks!!xxx

No one is TOO busy to send a quick email or meet you for a coffee on a lunch/dinner break.

Not trying to be mean, but when I guy is interested, he will make the effort and make sure he sees you.

You already made it clear that you want to hang out with him - now do NOT contact him again. You've made it clear the door is open - he needs to walk through.

If he doesn't, then it wasn't meant to be.

Don't sit around waiting for this guy either - if you can - go on a date with someone else. Someone REALLY interested in you.

GoodDog agony auntGive it a couple of days and if you still haven't heard anything take it that he's not going to get in touch.

Then you can either try a casual e-mail like a quick 'How are you?' etc and leave it at that or forget him completely.

He could of course be genuinely busy, but don't dwell on it though or you might be disappointed if you don't hear back from him.

Hope it works out for you.
