I gave him my phone number on Saturday but he hasn't called or texted. Is this a bad sign?

A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I went out on saturday night with some friends and the guy I like and am currently flirting with wasn't there. But just before we left he turned up, saying he was just passing. He gave me a hug and asked what I was doing now. I said a few of us were going to a friend's and he asked if he could come. So we then spent about 3 hours listening to music and all talking and laughing whilst my friends were far from subtle! We were talking about an eBay shop I have last week so I gave him one of my cards with my email and mobile number. I didn't tell him to phone or text but it means he could if he wanted to. He hugged me goodbye twice..

But he hasn't phoned or texted...and now my friends think that is a really bad sign

Is it? And how do I act round him next time I see him??

Was he drunk that night? If so, it's possible he doesn't even remember that you gave him your card. It could also be he's confused as to why you gave him the card, but didn't tell him to call you. If it were me, I wouldn't put too much thought into it. My opinion is if someone likes you, they will make you aware of it, (with exceptions being if you're already spoken for or you've turned them down in the past). If they don't say anything, I assume they aren't interested.

As far as how you should act, don't say or do anything different than you normally would. Act natural. If he still doesn't contact you, move on.

Stop the Press; Newspaper reads: ‘Guy doesn’t phone or text after hugging girl twice…’ but could have if he wanted too... Friends rally together and are of the opinion; it’s a really bad sign! eBay girl is now in acute neurotic distress… The situation is grim folks; he has her business card, but hasn’t called… She’s mentally beside herself to know how too act round him next they meet! What will become of this flirting couple?

Show him your post on Dear Cupid so we can get an idea of what he thinks of you after reading that. Cute, ditsy or crazy!?

Stayc63088 agony auntI don't know. I don't think it means much really. You gave him a card about something with eBay so he may not have felt comfortable contacting you about anything else. Also you didn't tell him you wanted him to contact you and some men are clueless and can't pick up on subtle hints like "I didn't mention you calling me but I gave you this card in hopes that you will because I really really want to hear from you!!" He may think it was an actual business type of card and didn't want to put himself out there for embarrassment by contacting you about anything else. I don't know what an eBay shop is but that's the feel I got for the situation from the context.

I'd say next time you meet up you tell him you would love to talk later, text me, you still have my number right? Be very straightforward with what you want. Only then will you know if he is or isn't interested.
