A few hits and a few misses, the usual.I'm just a little puzzled as to what I should do in the following situations.Guy emails me indicating interest, asks me a few questions. I email back, answer his questions, add a few things and ask him things back. He emails back, answers my questions but doesn't ask more questions.I responded to him in the first place because I liked what he looks like, what his interests are and so on. So now I don't know what to do.I am totally tempted to email back and say that I don't know what to say to him since he hasn't asked me anything. That would be a bit rude I know but it's like being on a date with someone where you have to make all the conversation.Why do these guys show interest (this one even complimented me on my looks) if by the second email they're not asking me anything?I suppose you could say after he read my email he's not interested anymore and replied to be polite. But why then respond with a lengthy email and start adding x's at the end of your message and saying hope to hear from you soon?So what's a good response to one of these? I don't want to brush someone off that easy but where do you go from here? Reply to this Question Share |

If not then no, hes not interested. if you dont feel you can wait however just send him a random email saying `hey how are you? ive been doing.....` just ask him how he is and what you have been up to lately. make the email interesting. Im sure if he sends you an email back then at least he wants to talk to you. give it a try.

i think men act in strange ways at times lol, we woman over analyse everthing lol and i would be thinking the same as you lol. You'll probably find that he didn't realise he didn't ask anything and is now waiting to hear from you.
why not just sending him an email saying "hi how was your weekend i did ............what did you get up to?"
this will start things off again but if you dont get a response from that then move on.
Hope this helps
