writes:Ok, in my last question, I asked about a guy from camp. The problem with this situation is that the only contact I have with him now is over the email. I actually invited him to prom a few weeks ago over the email, cleverly(or so I thought) phrasing it like so: "...go to prom with me, as friends, if nothing else." I hoped he might get the hint. Well, another problem(and he's told me this via email) he doesn't check his email very often. It's been about 3 weeks and I haven't heard a word from him. I ended up emailing him again and telling him that he didn't need to freak out about it, just say no if you don't want to go. He's a pretty laid back guy, and I'm pretty sure he wouldn't freak out about this, but the fact remains that it's been 3 weeks, and I haven't heard a word from him. Do you think he's freaked out, or do you think he just hasn't checked his email? Reply to this Question

Well, the thing is he might not have checked his email. But if he didnt want to go, the easiest thing would to be to just ignore the email. Which he might have done. Just message him saying sorry but you asked someone else and its ok he doesnt have to go now. His reply should answer your question.

 If he is anything like me, :o
I have almost had e-mail accounts shut down because I have forgotten for too long to check them.
I would just send him another polite message saying that you thought that you were afraid your previous message may have not gotten to him since you didn't recive a reply but you would like to know if he etc, etc, etc.
Hope this helps. Doc.

 Hey there,
Do you have his phone number? I'd just call him up and ask him about it. Just say, "I need to get tickets, so I needed to know sooner than later if you can go. If you can't, no problem, I just need to know so I can ask someone else!"... something like that. If you don't have his phone number or you don't have another way to contact him, I'd wait another week, then make new plans.
Oh wait. I just re-read your question. You only have his e-mail. Okay, so wait another week or two and then make some new plans... he might be using a new e-mail address or hasn't checked it in awhile. I doubt he's been freaking out or anything... but that's my suggestion. Sorry I didn't read it very well. And sorry I didn't delete my original advice and start over.
Haha! Have fun at your prom, girl.
