writes:I met a man a few years ago. We had instant, magnetic chemistry and it seemed very special. Since then, I have heard from him several times to check on the status of my independent research and find out how I am doing. Our communication has always been friendly and a little flirtatious but it never escalated to anything. He has never called for instance, just the email that comes every 6 months to 1.5 years...really, really random.Last year, I got an email from him. It was short and to the point to ask how my work was going. I responded with a short letter and never got a response from him. I wrote him again later to confirm his address so that he could review my work (because he volunteered at one point), and I got no response. I am really confused why I haven't gotten any response from him.This is what I know about him: He is single (at least the last time I checked). Lives in Europe (I live in the US). And, is somewhat popular with women.What are with the games? I don't understand why I randomly hear from him and then nothing for a year or more and no response to my letters. What are his motives? Can anyone explain this?

 It doesn't appear to be a game to me. It looks like a working casual friendship that you are somehow misinterpreting into something more because of a mild flirtation. Maybe you like him more than you are prepared to admit, and he isn't on the same playing field.
Lots of people flirt in the work field, but it often doesn't mean anything. I know people who just do it for an ego boost or a quick thrill without ever wanting to take things further. I would forget it and make friends elsewhere. As he hasn't really made any effort for quite sometime I would assume he wasn't interested.
Move on...there are better people to find!!!
God bless
