writes: Here's one of those typical, age old "Why isn't he contacting me back?!" scenarios.I went on a date last week. I felt it went super well. I had fun and was extremely attracted to my date. He seemed into me. So, the next afternoon, I decided to just message him a thanks and that I had fun, as I have recently decided to be more assertive and quit playing the wishing, hoping, and waiting game. He said he had fun too and then we began chatting like always about various goings on in our lives. Through the rest of the week, we chatted here or there, initiated by the both of us, and he seemed friendly as ever. Towards the end of the week, nothing. We didn't speak for a couple of days and I finally decided that I wanted another date and got up the courage to ask. So, I sent a friendly text asking to make plans within the next couple of weeks. Nothing... 24 hours later... Nothing.Well, my phone has actually been on the fritz. My Mom keeps complaining that I'm not answering her calls, but I'm never getting them and my phone keeps shutting off and having stokes and so on and so forth. So, I wondered if he got my message. Last night, I sent a quick text explaining the phone situation and asking if he got my message. He said he didn't. So, I asked about plans again... and again, nothing. Here it is the next day, and nothing.I know no one knows but truly him. However, this is driving me crazy. He seemed interested and into me and suddenly my request for a hangout is not responded to twice. Is it safe to assume that I'm being ignored? What should I do? Should I just wait it out and see if he contacts me?[And I don't really feel like reading that I shouldn't have asked him and that I should have waited for him to message me. I think that is bologna and that if you like someone you should just go for it.]Nevertheless, thanks for the advice!

But Annnia, that's what I was thinking. He got my, "Hey did you get my message?" and said no. So, in the event he didn't receive my second request to hang out, shouldn't he be curious enough to ask what I had said?
I don't know... I haven't tried to talk to him since. I figure he'll come to me if he wants to.

Call him and ask him...thats the best way for know. You cant depend on your phone...maybe he genuinely hasn't received your messages.

Hm.. What a mess.. Because it actually could be the case that he hasnt got Your messages! But on the other hand - IF this is the case he should contact you and Get curious about what you wanted to say to him in the text he said he didnt got! IF he got the text he is a total jerk. Go fix your phone!!!!!
