A female United Kingdom age 30-35, *ofialoren writes:

He likes me, it's pretty obvious. He asked me for my number, invited me out for coffee and generally keeps texting me and flirts when he sees me. And his friends keep nudging him when I am around. Then he invited me out for a party last weekend but I was ill and didn't go.

And he said he would text me on Monday and he didnt. I had a random convo on Fcaebook with him on Tuesday and we spoke for a while and suddenly he went off.

And then today he liked my status about going for a run.

Sounds silly but if he likes me why the hell did he not text me like he said he would, and then why did he go off the convo?And then WHY like my status today?

person12345 agony auntTry to relax. You're way over thinking this. The only thing I would say is that if you want to see him again, invite him someplace so he knows you were actually sick and not just blowing him off. I have no doubt he would say yes.

Relax OP, you're reading far too deeply into this. He probably just forgot to text you and he probably just had to go do something or fell asleep or something when chatting on FB. There could be a million different reasons, remember he was a party the weekend, it's well possible he got absolutely wasted and was still messed up on monday.

Why like your status? Why not? It's FB and it's just a like, nothing special, meaningful or amazing about it.

Seriously it sounds like you haven't even had any proper dates yet or anything so stop freaking out, it's way too early for all that stuff.

Just go with the flow and stop trying to discern signs from things you can't possibly figure out the meaning to and most likely have no deeper meaning attached to them.

I mean come on, is he the only person who liked your status? Are you reading this deeply into why all the other people liked it?

I would have mentioned the no text thing in your FB conversation.

OP just a heads up, not all guys are good at this sort of thing, in fact from what I see and hear most guys are useless at this sort of thing. This not going to be 100% perfect and go right in every way, there are always little hiccups here and there, try and relax and enjoy this, and if you want something, or want to know something then don't be afraid to take the reigns a bit. Better to make things happen than sit around wondering what the meaning of minor things is don't you think?

k_c100 agony auntMaybe his pride is a little hurt because you didnt go to the party, yes you were ill but he might be wondering if that was just an excuse to blow him off, so he might not be sure where he stands with you at the moment.

There could be loads of other reasons why he didnt text you, he might have been busy, forgot....we cant give you the reason I'm afraid because we are not inside his head. We can only speculate.

Its not like he has started ignoring you, he still spoke to you on Facebook (ok so he left suddenly but his interent could have gone down, he might have had to go out, answer the phone...who knows) and has liked your status so he's not ignoring you completely.

If I were you I'd send him a text apologising about the weekend, tell him you are feeling better now and you hope that you can see him again soon. Leave it like that, so the ball is in his court and see what happens. If he still doesnt text and doesnt ask you out again, well he has lost interest and that's the end of it. But hopefully he will text you and re-arrange your date!

I hope this helps and good luck!
