I can really talk myself into a stressful situation, and I think I might need a slap right now.
I was in an emotionally abusive relationship for a few years and ended it over a year ago - all good spent a year dating etc.
I've finally met someone I actually like.
I've known him two months, and we've met up around 7 or 8 times. First few times were his idea, the rest totally mine.
Up until yesterday he hadn't had a day off for 3 weeks (he's a builder). So I wasn't sure whether to just leave him to it but I wanted to see him, so I'd text and he'd come running, regardless of how tired he was.
So he's never denied me, but my mind is telling me he's not that into you, its you thats suggesting you meet up these past 4 times.
I saw him tuesday evening after he'd finished work at 11pm because I wouldn't see him for about a week as I was driving to parents for Xmas the next day.
Bit of texting on Wednesday, he was working, and he was working part of Xmas eve then had to get a train to his parents house. I texted him yesterday saying "How are you doing?" and uhhh no reply yet.
Its such early days but I like him, I know he can't really hurt me at this stage but I feel a bit like Im being ignored - takes 10 seconds to send a text? Even though I suspect he's mostly sleeping/spending time with his family.
I know when I get back to London and ask to see him he'll come running again, but it can't always be me making the move?
Slap me please.
