I have been talking to a guy via text who I met on OkCupid. We haven't met yet. But have been texting for over 2 weeks. We've had a really great vibe in conversation (though to be honest, it's just text. And I am not even sure if there's a physical attraction. I haven't even heard his voice, and he's not the typical guy I go for). Anyway, we were talking about meeting. I was game for meeting. We were talking about possibly yesterday. But it was my b-day, so I'd said I'd let him know. We were talking on Wednesday evening. The last message I sent him, he never responded to. Then I never heard from him on Thursday. I felt weird about it. I did decide to not do anything with him on my birthday. I'd have to drive an hour just to meet him halfway anyway. And my car is ******. I texted him Thursday that next week would be better. Never heard back from him. Friday, my birthday rolls around and I don't hear from him at all. I pretty much at this point, figure he decided he's not interested / changed his mind. Etc. I was kinda bummed! But I rolled with it, too. I ended up erasing his number. Anyway, he texted me this afternoon and was like "sorry, things have been kinda crazy! happy belated birthday!" No explanation. I wrote back and said "what happened? I thought you'd lost interest." and he seemed really flippant but positive, responding with exclamation points, etc. Said he's still interested. He finally also said that he had to work and work was crazy. I guess I just thought it was weird. And a stupid answer. He's also a grad student who finished finals earlier this week. I know he'd been tired too.

But what the ****. Maybe I just have different expectations and perspective. I don't know. To top it off, I have a UTI, and had an allergic reaction to the med my doctor put me on. So I have to deal with that ****, and to be honest, I really just want to tell this dude I'm not interested anymore. Or just not get back to him. He really seems to not get it that what he did bothered me. And before anyone jumps on me: I recognize that we haven't even met yet. But truly, I just think it's weird I didn't hear from him. Even on my birthday.

Should I give this guy a chance? Should I tell him how he made me feel? (I already did, and he seemed to brush it off. he said reassuring words "nah, I would tell you if I wasn't interested", but I didn't feel reassured) Is it too harsh to just say "**** it" and move on? I really just think it's kind of strange of him, and his answer was kind of lame. Idk. He seemed so flippant and he kept saying "so anyway, how are you?" Like he didn't want to talk about it. I don't know. I mean, I really thought he wasn't interested anymore, and I'd deleted his number. Did I jump the gun? Or is this just me and do I just have my own personal standards?
