So there’s this guy I’ve been chatting almost daily to for a few weeks via text… I remember him from high school… I like the attention but he isn’t very forward in making plans… he says he will then doesn’t…

I’m confident and have my sht together which he has said himself. I’m not sure if I come across intimidating as he lacks the life experience I have (He is 32). He has a flirty side which is attractive and he asks questions to get to know me. But it would never be more than something casual…*

I would quite like a males perspective… is it me? Or him? Or impossible to tell?! And what I mean by that is am I being too available… are the messages filling some sort of void that is enough for him and he doesn’t like me enough to pursue meeting IRL or is he nervous because he really likes me and I doesn’t want to risk meeting IRL?

He's married.

He's married.

I’m pretty sure he still lives at home 😆

"I would quite like a males perspective"

Then why are you posting here?

32, still lives with his parents and isn't asking you on a date ...

Yeah, this is going nowhere, OP. It’s not because you’re intimidating, or too available, or he’s too nervous or doesn’t like you enough. It’s because he’s socially stunted. Move on.

If he wanted to date you, he would be.
