I don't know, I haven't heard a peep from him since Sunday when we chatted and he told me he is struggling with letting someone in and he needs time to "sit on it for awhile." Okay...how long is awhile? Do I text him something? Sigh....this is the part of dating that stinks!!!


YOU do not initiate contact w/him at all. It's in his court.

he said he wants space and imo, NO expectations of him.

So let him sit on it. Did you tell him you wanted a r? That seems to scare the men off pretty fast.

When h and i were separated i did date and used online for some of it.

I was only looking for pleasant companionship (though maybe internally I was open for more, I was still hoping my m would survive)

but the men seemed quite comfortable with my NOT wanting a serious r with them. They wanted more and they pursued me.

As much of a high school game as it may seem to be = and YES It is. Men still like the hunt and imo, they do not want to be pursued, in general...

and this guy pretty much told you to back off, so I would not be wondering when YOU contact him.

I'd move on... and if he calls, that's nice...if not, no biggie. There are a lot of men out there who DO want r's...and this guy already has a "vacant look"...

that says a lot.
