writes: I recently went out with a guy who said he had liked me for 2 years but was way too shy to approach me. The date went great and he said he felt it went the same way. Then for 5 weeks i heard nothing. i text him(nothing too pushy just a hi, how you? sorta thing) but got no response. Now he has started texting again asking me what went wrong and what he had done. Is this his way of getting out of it being his fault that nothing went further? A person i rely on greatly for advise told me to ignore him and forget it. So i tried but he has text agian and again since and i am begining to have mixed feelings about what to do. one part of me is saying if he was really interested then why would he take nearly 2 months to get back to me where as the other side is saying that no other person has so much as looked at me since i was about 13 and im now 21, thats a long time on your own, so to give him another shot. which side do i listen to? my friend still say to forget him.

Your friend is right! And that half of you that wonders why he took 2 months is also right. You deserve better than that. Don't bother with him and move on. There's a guy out there for you. It isn't this one.

he sounds weird-why would he not contact you for ages and then ask why you didn't contact him-when you did-I would leave him alone,personally-I've dealt with guys like this before and they were dodgy,trust me-if your'e having problems finding a boyfriend try eharmony or a website like that-don't settle for a weirdo who messes you around just because your desperate-I didn't mean that to sound rude

why dont you ask him? just say... look i text you and didnt get a reply... why do you want to reply now? that is the ONLY way you will find out whether he is into you or not.... honestly... 2 months is a long time, however there could be a good explanation, maybe the texts didnt go through and he was waiting fo you to text.... and was upset when you didnt.... texts arent the most reliable form of contact... very convienient though they might be....

Not trying to dog you, because your better than that...I'd say you make him wait for awhile until you know for sure you want to give it another shot. Good Luck!
