Hey mike,
Don’t know if your still checking this sight regularly but what if I’m texting this guy after we’ve been to a few parties together and I get great quick responses, well I mean he doesn’t ask alot of questions but he gives good answers. Anyways I’m always the one to text him first, he said to me one time in person that he doesn’t text people and I should text him first but honestly it’s almost unconfortable to text him first all the time. What do I do?

I’m really confused. Please help. I met a guy nearly 3 months ago. Normally, I don’t give strangers my number, but I gave him my number, (not really thinking he was going to use it). He texted me by the time I reached my car. He was really cute and sweet in those texts. Sounds good so far.

He was always a perfect gentleman, sweet flirting – not sexual. Odd though, that he only texted me on weekdays. About a month in he was texting me daily and asked for permission to call me. He became more sexual in his flirting. As we had only met once and live in different states, I didn’t feel ready for that (intensified flirting) and told him. He seemed to understand and we continued texting that evening a bit longer. He even said that he would like me to get to know him better so that I could see he was a good guy. I think he might have been hurt and I told him that I never thought he was a bad guy, I just wanted to make sure I was not misrepresenting myself.

Then nothing for weeks. The cynic in me thinking, well, he was probably playing and now he’s done. The romantic in me (and my girlfriends) thought maybe he is slowing down because I told him he was moving to fast for me.

Going with the “romantic”, I waited 2 weeks for him to text me and when he didn’t, I texted him “hello”. That way, if he was wondering if I meant to end things politely when I asked him to slow down, he would know I just meant – slow down. The next day, he responded – briefly. Again nothing for a week. The same battle between romantic and cynic. Romantic won and I texted him a last chance”hi”. He responded the next day and since has been texting me about every 2 weeks. He is sweet and flirty, but somehow, not in the way that he was when we first met. Plus I have concerns about the fact that he only texts me on weekdays.

My question – what is going on? Was he playing and now have I just created a bad situation for myself by reaching out to him? Was he serious and now he regrets it?

Mike is right, they can’t read your mind and they get rejected way more than we do. When I want a man to call and all he is doing is texting, when he asks me a question via text, my standard response is, my fingers are tired so why don’t you pick up the phone and call me and find out. They call everytime. Mike I know you read these, so I am sure you don’t mind if I share this site.

Hey Mike. I was just finished reading your texting articles (which I absolutely loved) and I am kind of in a confused situation. I met this guy at the beach through mutual friends and we ended up chatting all night. He seemed to be interested and I was pretty sure he was when he ended up asking for my number. I’m the type of girl that doesn’t like to play games because I think they are quite dumb and immature, so I decided to text him the next day just to say “Hey it was nice meeting you!”. He didn’t end up responding until 4 hours later. 4 hours? I mean, come on, everyone knows that our cell phones are glued to our hands. By the way, his response was “It was nice meeting you too and I hope you had a good time!” I obviously didn’t respond, and I couldn’t respond even if I wanted to because there was nothing to really say back. It has been 2 days and I still haven’t heard from him. He’s obviously not interested right? Thanks!

my situation has a bit of a caveat to it. i’m having an emotional affair with someone who’s already in a relationship. it’s a long-distance thing that has been going on for only a month. for the first two weeks, we talked every day, whether by text or chat or phone. sometimes our phone conversations would last for hours.

last week, he told me he’d text me to let me know when we could talk, but i never heard from him. i didn’t hear from him next until the weekend, when he texted me after having had

Not at all… If it is said in a state of need, than yes but if you are tough than no…
Just be confident when you say this to him

Hi Mike,

Thanks so much for responding so quickly! You are so awesome! So you don’t think that would be super forward or desperate as a girl?

Thanks!

Hi Kit
Texting is very safe and a lot of times guys/girls want to hide behind this safety. I understand that you want him to call but does he know this? A lot of girls don’t realize that guys don’t know what they are thinking. It is time to tell him. Ask him very simply to give you a call. Say… “hey I like this text thing but it would be interesting to talk to you in person, I have time tomorrow night at 8 give me a ring”

Hi,

I met this guy recently. We chatted a bit he asked for my number, thinking he would call. Instead he has endlessly texted me. In fact he started just an hour after seeing me. From his texts I have gathered he is really into me. He sent the last two texts. I stop responding because I want him to call. How do I get him to call?

Thanks!

Liz Takahashi, I am not sure what kind of men you are dating…because none of those sound familiar. I think you need to swim in a new tank.
