Online dating advice please

[Onliner765]

I have been messaging a guy on a dating app, for a few weeks, lots in common, lots to talk about, swapped numbers, been on 2 dates with him recently.

Anyhow, Sunday was our most recent date, went really well etc. However, since Tuesday, the messages are becoming less and less.

For example, he would message me good morning, on the train to work. He hasn’t done that for the last 2 mornings. Message me when he got home from work, last night no messages at all.

He has mentioned being really busy in work, lots of pressure to finish the job. I have noticed he hasn’t been on the dating app since Sunday, although he has been on WhatsApp (I have gone to message him, then deleted it) He would probably reply if I messaged him, however he isn’t extending the convo, if you know what I mean. It isn’t flowing like before.

I’m new to online dating! He sent the last message yesterday morning, in reply to mine, which didn’t extend the convo. So do I just leave it? Should I ask if he is ok? Or send a message? He seems to have gone from extremely keen, to zero!

Back off him. If he's interested then he will contact you. It's early days and he could genuinely be busy! If you haven't heard from him by say Sunday then maybe pop him a hi, how are you message then. The best thing you can do is get on with doing your own thing as that always seems to trigger getting a message in my case.

I'm that person who isn't texting straight back and before we texted all the time. It's just simply I've not got anything to talk about all day every day so I keep texting to a minimum so its doesn't run stale
