writes:A friend recently introduced me to a man (57 yrs. old). He invited me for dinner at his house along with my friend. He is a gentleman. The problem or what I see as a problem is that he keeps asking me over to cook dinner for me and then wants me to stay over (which I haven't done yet) He says he'll sleep on the sofa, but he hasn't taken me out on a date.. His communication style is through text messages. Is this a problem or is it just me? I am very social and love to go to happy hour and be around people. Help!!!!

I know I'm a bit younger than you and the man you're talking about, but, he seems to be acting like guys my age. If you want him to take you on a date, speak up and if you don't like the fact that all he does is text you, then tell him! If he doesn't get his act together then dear, he's not worth your time! You seem like a woman who knows what she wants so go out there and find it, and if he's no it then let him be. He needs to grow up, he's acting like a 22 year old. Oh and I wouldn't trust that sleeping on the couch business, that's what he says to get you over there and he probably figures he can change your mind once you're there.

 I think that I would probably be a bit uncomfortable with this situation myself.
However, you need to go with your gut. Whether his intentions are noble or not, you need to feel comfortable before you agree to anything like that.
If you are uncomfortable and nervous, that may ruin the rest of the evening for you.
I suggest maybe telling him that maybe you would like to get to know him better, and see him in more social situations before you agree to stay at his place. He should respect that.
