writes: Dear Cupid,I recently have been hanging out with a guy (i.e./ he skateboards/buses to my campus which is roughly 45 minutes away everyday this past week and we walk around and talk, he taught me how to skateboard, cuddle on couches watch movies and tv shows in my room while cuddling etc.) he texts me everyday and every night and i usually take hours to respond because I'm busy but he replies always pretty fast to me. He said he would like to take me out on a date after the summer is over (i'm leaving for vacation for 4 months and won't see him until september). I know some people don't agree with zodiac's but in case you're curious he's a libra and I'm an aquarius. He hasn't been in a relationship for a year and he hasn't kissed a girl for a year as well. He didn't say anything about us and where we're going with this the last night before I leave for vacation. I don't know if he'll still be there for me in september or maybe he'll find someone over the summer and move on :/ He's always really charming with girls but he told me he's really picky and it takes a special kind of girl for him to even give her a hug. (I've gotten two) I don't know though because 4 months is a very long time, I don't quite know how to keep him believing I'm the special one for him that he can wait for and it'll be worth it.

reader, anonymous, writes (25 November 2013): This is verified as being by the original poster of the questionI know this is quite a late response but it is now almost December. Just to follow up, this summer, this boy called me almost everyday :). He would always text me a "good morning beautiful" and a "good night lovely" and we would talk on the phone for easily 2 or 3 hours. I think that keeping a relationship alive and well involves always keeping in touch but still leaving at least 75% of your day free to focus on you and put your phone down so both of you can build trust in each other. Little things such as sharing your day, everyday, with the person you care about the most subtly (and with time) brings you closer on an emotional level. After 4 months of long distance and looking forward to September when we would see each other again, we've been happily together. He is my much loved boyfriend of 7 months now and we love each other to pieces unconditionally. :)

Well, you have not actually gone on a date with him yet. Just talked to him on campus for a week and exchange texts daily.
How could he express any thoughts as to "where this is going"? What you have is an acquaintanceship which might develop into friendship and in time, something more. Right now it's all quite tentative.
I suggest you go on vacation and enjoy yourself. If I were you I'd send a few postcards.......see how it goes when you get back - no need to spend all your time texting! I'm not a fan of texting I must admit, except maybe to say "sorry, can't see you today, something's come up" sort of thing.
Maybe you could give him your phone number so he can chat with you while you're away.

I would not put your life on hold waiting for him.
go on your vacation... live your life
when you return if he's there pick up where you left off but don't put too much hope into it.
