The thing is, he lives in another city around 5 hours where I live, but his parents are here, so he comes around twice a month. He mentioned that we should go skating together sometime when he's here. Anyhow, we've been emailing each other every day for 3 weeks; he mentioned that he's looking for jobs in other cities and that it'd be nice to move here. The thing is, he has never suggested in his Email that we meet up, nor does he mention if he's coming to Toronto during particular weekends; he just comes when he's not that busy or when there's a family gathering here, but most of the time is to visit his parents. I didn't reply to his Email for a few days, but he still wrote to me twice despite me not replying (he was telling me how his interview went, among other things). The thing is, would you Email someone frequently if you're not interested? There is also the age factor, he's 14 years older than me, but I don't feel much of an age difference. I guess it is just bothering me how he doesn't even want to meet up, and I am definitely not going to suggest it. Should I just stop writing to him? I don't know where this is headed or if I need to do anything. Sure, I like writing to him, but I don't want to waste my time if he's not interested. Any insight? Thanks for taking the time to read this.

i agree with the one-sided comment. you should invite him to lunch, cinema, a drink? tell him you want to go skating as it was mentioned when you first met. he's older than you and he might feel awkward and afraid of rejection if he were to ask you out. good luck!

Just ask him how he thinks of you since you have nothing to lose from it. And why are you getting annoyed at him when he doesn't ask you if you want to meet up when you're not asking him. It can't all be onesided, that's a bit harsh if you ask me.
