So I have found myself just on the right side of 50, single again after a long term relationship.
I dated someone years ago who at the time I didn't want to pursue. My life was complicated so I called time on it, twice.
Anyway, this person has suddenly reappeared, coinciding with me being in a place where my head was getting together after my relationship ending.
So we start texting, catching up at first. He keeps texting every few days, this turns to banter, to flirting etc etc.
We eventually meet up after weeks of texting and the chemistry was insane. Not what I was expecting at all.
So flirty texting continues and we arrange to see each other again. Again, chemistry off the scale and we ended up picking up where we left it years ago, if you know what I mean.
Anyway he contacted me the next day. Great!! I thought!! Then nothing. For days and days. The longest period of no texting since we have been back in contact.
He then reaches out to say hi and a bit about what he's been up to, asking how I am. And then nothing!!
WTF is this? He pursued me and now I think has gone
ghost. What is that all about? Not great for the old self esteem which was already on the floor 🤣
Anyone who has been on the newly single scene want to try and explain modern day dating to a newbie please? Or how to navigate men in their 40's?
