Ok so ive had four dates with a guy in past 4 weeks (3 dates in the first week then 1 date in past 3 week's. On first 3 dates hes seemed v keen and always said hed like to meet again. 4th date was a little awkward but its hard making convo for hours on end in busy bar!) Anyway hes been very quiet lately...no contact 8 days! He was abroad for 7 and then straight back to work. I text him after 8 days saying "hi stranger, are u alive?!" And was all set to forget him but he replied straight away saying busy at work and mum was taken in to hospital yest (which i do believe as i know shes been unwell) and that hes not had time to think about anything else .... I sort of feel that although he has a lot going on he should still have time to contact me if he was still interested...fed up of feeling in limbo....time to move on or give him a bit more time??!

I was dating a guy for over 2 months who wasn't really that into me...we had such connection and chemistry when we were together, I didn't get why he was so distant when we weren't. I did all the chasing and did some embarrassing, needy texts! So people judging you sending one text!! They judge me more.

I been dating this new guy for a month, 4 dates and he texts me every day unlike other guy. All I can say is if you need chase a guy, his not the one for you. learn from this to cut these guys off quicker.

olympicsbaby it's fine to be fussy Smile so you should be, why waste your time on something that won't make you happy. This guy has caused you a lot of angst in a very short time, imagine the anxiety of coping with his hot/cold, on/off, love you/love you not crappy games in a few months from now, is that how you would want to live? No, so I really think you have done yourself a great service here in blocking...now to forget and go find someone worthy of you. Good luck, there are some decent men out there but I suspect they are not hanging out on dating sites.
