I have been trying to keep things fun, have a good sense of humor etc. I actually met some of his friends and family already. That is great and sweet in a sense but from my experience a guy can flake or even blow a person off despite introducing them to friends and family early on so I don't place great importance on this (yet anyway) We are usually in some form of contact each day whether through texting or calling. We do joke around alot through text b/c sometimes we can't talk. At times though he tends to flake for a whole day and night where I don't hear a word and then the next day he will text me not really explaining anything. So that right there shows he isn't taking this too seriously yet (and maybe never will) despite his actions when together. This is about the 2nd or third time it's happened. He had a very stressful week at work and I felt now that the week was over, things would get back to normal. I texted him in the afternoon joking around and no response. A few hours later i texted asking if he was still planning on going to so and so..by the end of the work day i just joked saying hope you're ok lol and left it alone. I should have stopped after one text--that was silly of me but we have texted alot in the past so i felt semi comfortable with it. He doesn't respond until 11pm at night. I was actually starting to think before he may be blowing me off (insecurity maybe from other guys) and he doesn't explain anything..just says hey sorry lol etc etc I pointed out in a joking way ok flaky lol He did text me in the morning and I just feel like maybe I need to start mirroring what he does at times? If he takes hours to respond then I should do the same..not necessarily to play games but to show the same type of consideration he is showing me. I feel it's wayyy too early for me to say anything to him but I can show with my actions how I should be treated?? He has mentioned if he is stressed or something like that he almost just focuses on that and shuts down but I doubt that was the case with this.... Or maybe I am just expecting too much too soon at this point?
