Talked to me christmas and new year and while on holiday also speak to him a lot at night. I do believe he hasn't got a girlfriend as doesn't matter when I phone him but lately things have changed he has become very quiet and just send short messages says he is in a bad place at the moment with work and his house etc. So me being me went and said if he needed space then just tell me so he has now said yes just for a bit. He also told me to take it easy x I'm totally confused have I just been given the brush off, or is it truly he needs space if so how much space should he have and how long should I wait for him. Help!!!! I don't want to loose him he is my dream man.

reader, anonymous, writes (7 February 2010): A man who lives 200 miles away, that you have never met in person, who is short with you is your dream man? really? You don't know this guy yet, you've never even met. He's dealing with some stuff so you aren't his first priority and rather than be supportive you bring the "space" drama and obsessing about your own agenda. He told you he's in a tough place right now. You went overboard and said if you need space just tell me - which is kind of accusing him of not being straight. So he asked you to take it easy, and then decided to take you up on your offer. You kinda set yourself up here. I think you need to take a step back. Why do people let themselves get so emotionally involved with people they have never even met face to face?

Give him the space he needs, but just text him once in a while to see what's happening. You'll soon know whether he's interested, because he will either reply and more detail, or he won't reply at all.
