We had only been talking for about two weeks when he expressed finacial issues that he was having with a business he started about two years ago. So me caring about him I put in a few calls to some investors to help him but that did no seem to cheer him up.(Maybe because they did not help with his problem) Then thrid week comes and he has not found a solution to his money problems he went from calling me about three times a day to no calls at all. I was constantly (and by constantly I mean maybe twice a day which alot for since I am not usually a caller) calling and sending encouraging text messages to let him know that I am here if he needs me to talk or just to listen and for him to be held. But he has turned down all of my efforts and not really replied the way he did when we first met. My friends say to give him a week or two to get out of his depressed moment. I say drop him. What do u think? Am I being harsh? What should I do?

He's probably depressed. Financial issues affect every aspect of your life and he probably can't get his head out of whatever he's dealing with right now to keep up with a relationship. I would let him initiate any further contact.
