Dating games people play...

lightinthesky...yep. I haven't been single for 12 years so I'm really out of touch with the stupid games.

wish there was a manual

I don't know…maybe it's because I'm kinda desperate deep down and I would wait for months, years even. I mean, since no one is ever interested in me, so if there's even a slight chance that someone actually is/was for a few minutes, I'll hold on to it.

Also, when one decides to wait on the other, wouldn't that also be "playing hard to get"? I mean, is it wrong to stop texting someone when you get tired of initiating the conversation all the time and hope that he would talk to you after not hearing from you for a few days.

I guess my point is that unless you have other options (or usually have other options become available on a regular basis) maybe talk to him one more time and explain how you feel (at least about the lack of communication etc.) and then if he doesn't care, then move on.

But I may just feel like that because I never have the other options and I tend to wait for months at least. The last time I waited a little over a year. I've been waiting for about 3 months this time around.

I've been single my whole life and I'm out of touch with the games and I have to constantly ask someone what I'm supposed to do next and need reassurance that whatever I do/say isn't going to make them automatically hate me. My point is that I don't think there's necessarily an advantage in being single in this case.

Update: been texting back and forth, I kind of hinted that I was disappointed in his actions, he's been sweet since. I'm still guarded but I know he's interested. I'm just wondering if he might just be interested in something casual.

Hmmm…well he's interested to some extent, so that's good. But I can't say whether he wants something casual or not. I suppose time will tell. I wish you good luck.

does he call??

But would that make a difference? Not everyone is comfortable talking on the phone. I don't know how it is in this situation, but calling someone you like/may have interest in etc. … I think that would be terrifying. Is that the norm?

So take your time I think you will see/find out it soon by the way he acts, what you think? I don't know how it usually happens I'm quesing. .

I don't think it's a guy thing as girls also do the same. I think some people are just inconsiderate of others. Just take it slow and don't rush into things that's all

He doesn't call, I don't either. Just texting.

He is out of town right now so it's really an anxious waiting game. To see how he acts when he's back I guess.

from my experience a dude calls when hes interested... i didnt have any relationship with them but they would call me everyday.

That's probably true for most guys, but what if they're shy or don't like using the phone? Just like I wouldn't expect to make all the first moves myself, I wouldn't expect the dude to do so either. I don't know, maybe it's more comforting to think that than to think that no one has been ever interested in me.

quietfeline—as difficult as it is, you might as well wait for now and not jump to conclusions quite yet.

I don't know, I had one guy calling all the time and all he wanted was sex so...
