Comfortable or Losing interest?

I will admit that I haven’t dated someone of quality in awhile (took a year break after dating 3 losers in a row). It has been going pretty good with this guy and I know around 3 moths or so it can be make or break time. He is honestly the first guy in forever who hasn’t annoyed me by saying or doing something immature. He acts his age! (32)

We hung out last week Thursday (spur of the moment and Sunday planned) This past week on Tuesday was the first day he went without texting me at all(but no big deal). But every other day he has been initiating texts and communication but just things like “I ate too much at lunch today” or about his fantasy baseball team lol I initiated one text this week asking if he was still going to see his friend 2 hours away this weekend. He replied that he was and that he was excited and that he was at the casino. So I let him be. Last night he texted me that he made it to his friend’s but it took 5 hours bc of so much traffic. I told him At least he can now focus on having a great time with his friend (same way i’d usually reply).he didn’t respond to that but later initiated more texts last night but just about the horrible traffic.He didn’t respond to my last text (which didn’t require a response so its ok) But I noticed that this week he hasn’t asked me anything about me, how my day was, how a situation at work went or what my plans were for the holiday weekend or anything.

He also stopped calling me babe as of last week.

Is this normal "comfortable" behavior or is he going to start to fade? We started off pretty fast so I thought that maybe he just needs some space but he knows that if that were the case all he would have to do is tell me. I like brutal honestly and he knows that.

Thanks!

I think if I were you I would just ask him , not in a deep 'where is this going' conversation but just say what you've said above (that's only my opinion though!) .. I'm only thinking this because you can spend hours/ days guessing and trying to work it out and still be wrong- by asking him, what's the worst that can happen? He may say lets just be mates - least you will know and wouldn't have wasted your time

When are you due to see him next?

@oysterbabe No set plan yet. He won't be back until Monday night. He usually does ask me during the week when I am free so we can hang out. He did this last week, which resulted in us hanging out on Sunday (my choice of day). Thursday ended up being a last minute hang out bc he said he had a stressful 2 days at work and he would love for me to come over and have dinner with him and stay over. So I went and it was cute. No sex so he wasn't using me. Sunday we did have a set plan. We went to a sports bar to have lunch and watch sports and he wanted me to stay over so I did (this time sex but we have been sexually active). He has been the same until them but this week communication dropped some and the pet names also stopped. I guess I could just see if he asks me to do something this week.
