I can't see you tonight because of work shifts. And I don't want you getting serious with me again'. I text back... and tried to phone him a few times to see what it was all about and he text me again... 'I'd like you to stop texting me and phoning me for a while'.What is going on.... does he need space.... or has he changed his mind and that 'a while' means don't EVER text me again!! I'm confused, and fed up with this texting lark... whatever happened to good manners, why can't he talk to me on the phone!! Would like to hear your take on this, as I really would like to see him again, and don't know how to play it. BTW, he is 10 years younger than me, but says he just prefers older women to ones his age.

 Something about that doesnt sound right to me. If someone was really into you then they would at least provide a valid reason for wanting the calls and texts to stop. It takes two to make things work and you certinly shouldnt be the one at his beck and call, allowing him to come and go as he pleases. This makes you a booty call for attention when it isnt available else where.

 I hate text messages especially if I get a barrage of them, the occasional "Hi how are you, what are you up to?" is fine but when it is a full blown conversation, it can take hours of your time up which is great when you are bored, but if you have a busy life and your phone just keeps buzzing it's annoying as anything.
I wouldn't text him now until he texts you next. If this is more than two weeks just send a message saying "hi" etc. If he doesn't reply I'd take it that he meant forever.
