Is he losing interest?

Met new guy online - initially very keen. He initiated all dates and we had a great time. We do have very good chemistry, good conversation and l like him.

We've now been dating a month. We see a lot of each other - in fact it's been every day this week pretty much.

I can't quite put my finger on why I feel like this but I'm scared he is losing interest.

He stayed over last night and left this morning but I didn't hear much from him all day. Until late this evening, when I know he is on a train travelling to visit friends.

This week some of his messages have seemed a little short - but I'm not sure if it is because we've seen each other a lot.

When we are together it still seems good, but I guess I'm feeling more insecure when we're apart.

He didn't initiate sex last night - but cuddled me all night and it happened twice this morning. When he said goodbye this morning he didn't say 'see you soon' - just kissed me goodbye.

Is it likely I'm just paranoid or should I go on instinct here? Do men get comfortable?

Its all too much too soon. You don't know him and yet he is wandering about with your key?

Are you still going out on dates? Appearing two nights in a row, later than planned means he is coning for a shag

He should have left at the same time as you this am - no need to leave him alone at yours

Busy all weekend, arrives late at night, still has profile on dating site. Probably dating evenings and weekends, no wonder you feel on edge! Of course he's too busy to spend quality time with you, besides he's got it made here, sex on tap whilst he continues to date others. Who wouldn't be happy with that. Are you happy though?

I feel like I'm getting a bad rap here.

First of all it's not really about the sex - we don't always have it and I waited six dates. Proper dates; and yes we still go on them.

He came over for dinner last night. Crossed wires meant he actually waited outside my house for 40 minutes before I realised - didn't hear him knock.

Sorry got distracted before I could finish post - you’re not getting a bad rap - no one is judging you. Really trying to help you by seeing where you are differing from what other people might do in your circumstances and trying to get you to value yourself a bit more.
Honestly I don’t think he was outside your house for 40 mins - didn’t he have a key?! It sounds like something he said when he realised you were upset he only came round late. I bet you still let him sleep over despite only turning up late? You are a month in - try to wind it back - don’t let him have your key and insist on dates before shags still.
