Where did he go

So I met a guy who lives across the world whilst I was away I have family there.

he pursed me hard, anyway we hooked up briefly the last night.

We have been in touch call texting I was texting long messages at first which to be fair he was week before I was just giddy, it’s been around 11 weeks now he like send me pics he was sending me training pics etc I have no clue how modern dating I’ve just come out of a 17 year relationship.

So at first was a bit like what do I even say back to pics I sent one liners flame etc I sent a few then we got into sexting only 3 times I did pull back a week as was busy, he climataxed each time I sent pics nothing to explicit just tease he did get on nude I like a bit of a chat so I didn’t alway go straight in and I didn’t really initiate.

Anyway he came back to me after a week we were chatty then sexted next day again all fine he had face, ass and tease video anyway he gone quiet ended it with us giggling.

He has replied back to me with thinking of you too I was in the middle of going out and liked it I don’t know why I didn’t say anything back and also I sent a pic he said hello gorgeous hope all is well but didn’t really bite to my pic so again I was weird ha.

He has some heavy medical stuff going on which hit the week after so don’t know if it’s this or he just got bored or I wasn’t spicey enough he maybe seeing someone I wanted to get to know him as we had a good connection there but then maybe he just wanted the spicy looking back I miss the escape what do I even do from here now leave him to it.

Ask him.

More to the point, where did you go @Creek2025 ? This is nothing more than an escapist fantasy, so why do you care so much about where he went? Seeing as you have put it there in your post, this interaction appears to be wank fodder for him. Don't lose yourself in this! You are a whole complete person, not just phone porn and whilst I get that a bit of escapist fantasy is fun, don't see it as more than that.

Creek2025 · 12/05/2026 10:56

Yes you are right I think I’ve been overthinking all of it now I wanted the fun and he disappearing but replies still then I got paranoid I wasn’t enough.

You are more than enough and probably way too good for this malarky. It is a lot to adjust to coming out of a 17 year relationship. Chalk this up to experience and be really, really kind to yourself.

I can't figure out what you're getting from this?

mindutopia · 12/05/2026 11:27

This all sounds a bit grim really. I think once you cross into the sexting territory especially long distance when there is no hope of a relationship, that’s kinda what you become. You stopped sending pics. He got bored.

@Creek2025 at the end of reading your post I admittedly thought wtf!

It’s weird. Try to find someone closer to home that you can actually go on dates with.

Bristolandlazy · 12/05/2026 14:54

This doesn't really have legs does it, unless you're into ultra long distance dating. I don't get the point unless you're enjoying the sexting. Sounds a bit one sided to me.

Have a listen to the Sweet Bobby podcast

It was a bit of fun, as far as he's concerned. Nothing more. You stopped sending pictures, he's lost interested and moved onto someone else.
