Is he interested?

Hi,

Met this guy and wasn’t so keen on the idea of him as a potential bf but we talked a bit and then I left. He contacted me a week later and we talked some more and he was telling me about how he wanted to do a PhD in my hometown etc.

Thought that would be the end of our ‘communication’ but he asked how I was the following day...

And for the past two weeks - we’ve literally not stopped talking to each other! I’m slowly falling for him but something was bothering me which was the fact he drinks (yeah, I don’t drink and never have) - I asked him and I was expecting him to be defensive about and to get angry.. but he was so calm and explained that he did drink a lot a couple of years ago but now drink 1 or 2 times a month max and is planning on quitting as he doesn’t enjoy it anymore...

He has a flight to catch (visiting his parents) tonight and he’s still texting me back and forth and asking what I have planned this week and what I’m doing etc.

I even said... since you’ve not seen your family in so long, maybe go easy on your mobile usage and we can talk next week when you’re back. He replied and said ‘I really admire the way you think but I’m sure I can spend time with them and find time to speak to you too...’

Is this guy genuinly interested in me? I’m really warming up to him and almost said ‘oh I’ll miss you so much after you leave!!’ Haha but stopped myself!

He’s 27 and I’m 25 :)

Everytime he asks me - what are you doing? Even when I know how busy he is (he handed his thesis in today!!!) - my heart literally skips a beat 🙈

Has he asked to meet up? If not then I’d assume it’s a fantasy relationship he is interested in rather than you as a living breathing person.

Yeah he jokingly said ‘wished you could come on this trip with me...’

But we are meeting up next week when he’s back :)

He's definitely into you! If you feel strongly about the no drinking I'd tread carefully going forward. I like a drink, but my partner love for drink is another level and it can be hard work and very frustrating. Go slow and enjoy!!!
