Should I call him again? Or is this his way of saying "get lost?"

Question - (15 November 2009) 4 Answers - (Newest, 15 November 2009)
A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I've been getting to know this guy through email recently. Emails were going well and we seemed to have clicked, alot of interests same but some differences. Swapped photos and attracted to one another so all good.

We had an issue about a topic on religion so were disucssing that but he said that's up to me in his last email and he'll email me more over the weekend as he was busy with work. (That was last weekend). I emailed him back saying I'm not going to change just because he told me too (unless he becomes my b/f) although it is something that has bothered me before I met him and the decision will be entirely mine and I will do it for me, not him.

The thing is since my last email, he's not emailed back since that. It's been a week and three days and nothing. At first I thought he was just busy with work as he's generally been pretty slow at emailing, longest being 5 days. But ten days?? And nothing to say he's busy??

Should I send a follow up email to say I'm waiting for a response from him and it's been over ten days and if he doesn't want to take things further than to let me know (in a polite way) or do I assume that this is his rude way of just saying "He's no longer interested?"

I'm confused as he seemed perfectly fine in his last email and said he will email me over the weekend and I don't think I said anything to offend him in my very last one... Yet he's not emailed back nor has he said he's not interested or indicated otherwise.

He wanted a girlfriend who would do what he wanted. Since you dared to want a man who would love you for who you actually are... he's gone off in a huff.

You had a lucky escape hun.

Good Luck!! xx

Thanks for your reply CaringGuy... To be fair on him, he does work really long hours (14 hours a day) so the last thing he wants to do is come home and email me...

Saying that though he has had two weekends of no work where he COULD have emailed me but hasn't...

I guess I'm just annoyed....it's fine if you don't want to take things further, absolutely fine that some things are important to people but at least have the audacity to email back and say "I'm not interested." It's just common courtesy. Or at least I thought it is...

I'm guessing that the religion thing got to him. But good for you for not changing. Never change for anyone. I think he's probably moved on, so you should too. To be fair, ten days is a long time, and if a guy was really interested, he would run around after you even if he didn't have much time, because you'd mean that much. I think you'd be better off moving on if you can.
