A guy asked me out for a drink after matching on OLD. We are both 33. This was back in June. The date was a bit meh, but I think we were both nervous. We continued to text on and off and he invited me out again. I wasn't sure about him, so I cancelled the date when it came around, I had a 'better offer' to go out with a friend. I didn't dislike the guy, I just wasn't sure I fancied him.
We were going to rearrange when I became ill. I had to have a hospital stay which I told him about but didn't go into detail about what for. I said I was a bit stressed at the moment so didn't want to date and hopefully rearrange when I'm better, he agreed.
The date of the hospital stay came and he messaged me afterwards asking if I was ok and that he hoped it had gone well. It hadn't gone as well as I'd hoped and I felt awkward to say so, and I was feeling ill, so I didn't reply. And we haven't spoken for 2 months since.
I'm a lot better now and as I think he had some good qualities about him I'd like to be back in touch, but I think he has lost interest....
He was for a while, liking my instagram stories. So he knows I'm back to normal and going about my life. I thought, maybe he would message, but he hasn't.
Over the weekend, he posted a story on Instagram and a Grid post and I decided I'd 'like' them to give a slight nudge, but again, he hasn't messaged me.
I know everyone is going to say 'YOU message him'. But I feel if he really wanted to see me again, and he was keen before I put our date off, he would message me and ask how I am?
Feeling like he has now lost interest, especially as I feel by me liking his posts (one was a selfie) I'm trying to show I'm open to reconnect. I feel if he was interested in reconnecting, he'd take that hint and message me, but he hasn't.
I don't understand though, why he likes my stories still?
I just think if he was keen enough he'd message and he seems to no longer be keen.
