Why would he act so interested and then IGNORE me?

Question

i dated a guy 9 yrs ago. (i was in 10th grade, wasnt anything serious.) we've seen eachother off and on thru the yrs but were both dating other ppl. he approached me a month ago online and we've been e-mailing and texting ever since. every day i'd get a message from him saying "hey beautiful, hope you have a good one,,," etc.

i finally got the courage to call him 3 nights ago. we talked for an hour and had a great convo. he said, "why havent we hung out more over the years?" and brought up going on a date. said he'd be in my town next wk, he'd def call me, wants me to come see him, etc. the next morning i had a text saying "it was so nice hearing from you last night, i went to sleep with a smile on my face."

BUT...he hasn't said anything to me since. i dont understand. i sent a text saying hi yesterday...but no response. am i over-anaylzing? why would he act so interested and then not talk to me for a few days? should i back off and ignore him for a bit?

Answer 1

Hows about the possibility work has been that heavy that he hasn't had the time, or that he may have lost his phone, or no credit, or no connection available.

All these above are possible, why don't you use the phone for what it's meant to be for, and talk to him,

Maybe you should send him another message to casually ask, hey, are we still catching up when you are in town? and leave it at that for him to reply. Maybe he didn't get your first message.

Anyway, you have a bf already, so why are you so interested?? hmm..

Answer 3

i can't explain his bizarre behavior, im sure there is a reason behind it.

what i would do is back off for a while, and if he really meant what he said then he'll come back to you.

Answer 4

Maybe his girlfriend found out about you.

Answer 5

Hey, a girl does that to me at school, it's you people that do that kinda thing, not us! (guys)

Maybe he's playing hard to get, in that case, back off and he'll come around. Wait for him to call you, if he dusnt either he not intrstd or u call him.

Hope all goes well.

Well, he could just be genuinely busy. He could just be playing the game with you. It's still new, so over-analyzing is a bad idea - the quickest way to put an end to a potentially nice thing. I'd give him a few days. If you don't hear back from him, just call him. Don't ask him why he didn't call back. He'll think it's clingy. After you've made that call, wait for him to call the next time. If you're doing all the calling he'll start to think he can put zero effort into whatever it is the two of you have going on.
