Does He Want Me Back?

13 replies

Jennielouise · 02/03/2015 00:02

So I met this guy in October 2014 (Overseas) We Kept in touch when I went back to the Uk,we spoke everyday for upto 5 hours at a time,skyped,phoned one another,and texted.He told me how he felt about me,and that is more than like he was always thinking about me.
I went back to see him at the end of January 2015,everything was perfect on the first night,he said he was so happy that I had gone to see him.
We arranged to meet another night but I fell through,and he ended up waiting for me for 1 hour,I explained the next day that I was sorry we didnt see each other,and that I wasnt playing games with him,that I really wanted to see him.We arranged to meet again on the last night,he was working at the hotel where I was staying,i didnt know he had finished work,he was upset and went home after waiting 20 minutes,he said he was expecting to see me and when he didnt he decided to go home.I Gave him an ultimatium said if he didnt come that night,there wouldnt be a next time,I had been drinking and was upset,I wish that I hadnt said it.After that he said we're better as friends,i said i can't be your friend,he said i cant be your lover.The next day he blocked me on facebook,so I was texting everyday for a week had no replies,decided to install whatsapp,found his last seen status was a week earlier,I sent him a photo of the present I had bought for him for Valentines day,he said I don't care,I don;t want anything from you,you give me space and peace.Bye.I never messaged him,his last status on whatsapp was a week earlier,so he rarely used it,after the message he sent me,he was going on everyday ever since sometimes 6 times a day.Then yesterday which would be two weeks since I had said anything to him,he sends me a message hi how are you,I had changed my status on whatsapp wrote no distance is too far as long as I have you,feelings are real,i can't forget you.and had uploaded a photo of me holding red roses,and after that,thats when he messaged me the next day.

So what does it sounds like,is he still into me,does he want me back?
What should I do?

Sounds like a lot of angst for little gain.

Does "he want you back"? Sound like he never really had you anyway?

It wasn't a relationship was it - just a couple of dates and a lot of skyping/electronic communication. + he lives overseas.

I'd consign it to the dustbin. Him blocking you is a BAD bad bad sign. It speaks of petulance, not getting his own way and narcissism. How fucking old are people who de-friend people on facebook? 15?

It doesn't matter what he wants. What you should want is nothing to do with him.

I had changed my status on whatsapp wrote no distance is too far as long as I have you,feelings are real,i can't forget you.and had uploaded a photo of me holding red roses

Why??! He'd asked you to leave him alone. Why would you then do this?? He doesn't like you. Next.

VanitasVanitatum · 02/03/2015 00:57

You stood him up twice, no wonder he was pissed off. You sound like you are being very intense with him, you need to give him space like he asked.

Jennielouise · 02/03/2015 01:11

I did give him space,didn't text him or saying anything to him for 2 weeks,then on friday after I had put a photo of me holding a bunch of red roses,and changing my status too.No distance is too far as long as I have you,feelings are real.I can;t forget you,and yesterday he messaged me said Hi How are you?

Does he want me back? Back to where? You don't appear to have a RL relationship - you met in Oct 14 then you came back to the UK. Were you on holiday in his home country?

How long did you actually spend together in Oct?

And all he's said is 'hi'

I'm a little confused at why so much investment in something that looks like it doesn't have legs, unless one of you is planning to move?

dangerrabbit · 02/03/2015 06:14

Find a person in the country where you are actually living. Preferably without all the added drama, unless that's your bag.

Rebecca2014 · 02/03/2015 06:23

Okay you stood him up. You planned meet up a second time and again you do not show up so he leaves. You then behave like a child and give him an ultimatum which he may saw as a red flag considering how little you actually seen each other.

You bothered him for a week after he told you he just wanted to be friends and you put up a silly picture of you holding roses with a quote. How old are you? its a long distance relationship which will never work, just find a man who lives near you.

LineRunner · 02/03/2015 06:27

He works in the hotel you stayed in? Is this how you met him the first time, on holiday?

Out of interest, why did you then fail to meet him twice, if you 'went back to see him'? I am wondering what you were doing instead that was so important. Were you with other people?

Anyway, it sounds like a shambles, so I would give it a swerve.

Watchmestumble · 02/03/2015 07:11

So you made a trip abroad to see him but only actually saw him once? Confused sorry.

TastelesslyDone · 02/03/2015 07:13

Leave the guy alone, for both your sakes. "Going back to see him" and standing him up twice just don't add up.

Find yourself a more local guy who you can then text / Whatsapp / Facebook to your heart's content

EhricLovesTheBhrothers · 02/03/2015 07:21

Are you very young?
Fwiw this 'relationship ' really isn't going anywhere.

bigbluestars · 02/03/2015 07:25

How old are you OP?

This sounds like a holiday romance with a waiter at a hotel- one of 50 flings he has had in the past year.
It's a learning exercise and part of growing up.

AllThatGlistens · 02/03/2015 07:32

Oh God.

This sounds very angst ridden for not much return.

So all of your what's app contacts saw your status directed at him declaring your feelings and you have only met a handful of times?

I am genuinely cringing a bit.
