He actually seemed glad to see me, he said he was so glad he ran into me and wanted to go out sometime and catch up. The problem is - he said that 6 weeks ago. We exchanged numbers and talk on the phone occasionally, yet never seem to meet up. While on the phone he has often mentioned his interest in us hanging out together again; but STILL...no meeting between us. Whats wrong with this? Is he just leading me on?

Well how does the conversation go? Is it like- yeah we should hang out sometime. Or- Lets see a movie this saturday, are you free? Since these are quite different. From my experience, I hear/say "we should hang out sometime" as kind of a polite thing to say, even though I don't actually mean it. If it still hasnt happened he probably isnt all too interested in actually hanging out. You can try though. Next time he says something about hanging out, just pick a day and ask how it works for him. Good luck.

He is a talker and not a doer.
Maybe , he could be waiting for you to take the bold step...
Why not , next time ,you initiate the meet up.
You ask him out and see how he will response?
