writes:I met a guy while studying abroad in Italy this past spring- I would say we were together for about a month before I had to return home and we decided to stay in touch, especially as my family is from Italy (I speak Italian fluently) and am planning to return at least for a visit next year once I have finished school. I was pleasantly surprised that he put forth as much effort to stay in touch (and he initiated on my first day home- checking in to see how my trip was, etc.) mostly via email and facebook, as most of my friends were warning me that there was no way we would stay in touch especially as we are not exclusive or anything like that. It has been a little over 2 months since I was in Italy and we generally sent each other one message per week, however- he has not replied back to my message which I sent 2 weeks ago, and the last we chatted was almost 3 weeks ago as of next week. We had been staying in touch really well and now I'm confused as to why I haven't heard from him... I don't think I'm even all that upset from a romantic standpoint- but also as a friend, because it was nice at least having someone to talk to about my life, hearing about things back in Italy, etc. I am away right now, and was thinking about sending him a quick message when I arrive home next weekend just to check in and see how he is- is that pushy of me or should I just wait for him to respond? Thanks for any help!

For all you know there's just something going on and he forgot to reply the first time but after all those weeks and if no reply after this one I wouldn't give him another thought. You are not his to back burner! Don't stand for it, there's someone better out there for you.
