Why is he doing it? Every time I'm free to visit him, he's "busy"!

A United Kingdom, anonymous writes:

Hi there everyone,

Over the summer I met a guy who's slightly younger than me (by 2 years) who came to stay at the place I was working whilst on a sporting event. We got on really well and went out together with a few of the friends he was playing sport with after my shift. We had a great time and we all got on so well. When they left to go home, we all kept in touch with each other, but mostly with this guy called Stephen.

He told me that he thought I was amazing and how much he's attracted to me to a *jaw dropping* extent, and to this day we text every day and speak occasionally on the phone. Some of the texts have been rather sexual sometimes late at night, but that's not all they're about.

The thing is, he's not mentioned meeting up with me in a while, and every time I've happened to be near where he lives he's suddenly "busy". Now this may well be the truth because he's recently been accepted to an England team with his sport and he's doing extremely well (always on the move/travelling for it). It's his whole life.

The thing is, even though I have my own goals in life that I care deeply about, I also care really deeply for him, but he seems to be content with the way things are now (speaking every day via text) between us for the moment. It's something I really look forward to every evening, and he's the one who will always initiate the contact.

I don't think we would still be in touch 3 months down the line every day if he didn't feel something, but I'm afraid I'll scare him off if I press the matter too hard. I think he may be afraid to see me again, I'm not sure...

I can't work him out! Should I just pull the plug now if he's just stringing me along? Or should I keep things the way they are in the hope that eventually he will gather up the courage to see me and possibly take things further?

Thanks for your time guys, I really appreciate it.

Tricky. He doesn't seem like the kind of guy who would string you along. Maybe you should tell him how you feel. Honesty is always the best policy.Good Luck
