Gemini / Cancer Cusp Mind Games?

Hey everyone! I'm in a bit of conundrum over this Gemini / Cancer cusp guy (He's a Gemini by one day). I'm an Aquarian by the way
Him and I met through a mutual friend at a party and he asked me out for a drink through FB. I'm a flight attendant and I frequently visit the city that he lives in so I told him that I'll let him know when I'm coming into town. I realized over time that he is not very attentive with his messages and he often doesn't respond for hours and days.
So we hang out once as a group and he indicated that he was interested in hanging out just the two of us. So we went on one date, and we hit off really well that I was thoroughly convinced that he really liked me and wanted to see me again. We have a lot in common, not just by interest but in our background and our outlook on life. He'd say something like "We should talk about music sometime.", etc. He told me some of his deepest secrets about himself and I shared mine, which I thought was quite unusual for a first date.
Anyhow, fast forward that we couldn't see each other over the holidays as he went home but we kept in touch loosely. His responses were short and hardly a conversation that went dead quick. So I didn't message him until the New Year. He then messaged me at midnight his time on New Year's day wishing me a happy new year. I messaged him back a happy new year. He then messaged me letting me know that he's going back to the city where he lives. I took a hint but didn't tell him then when I was coming into town because there were still some time and he indicated before that his schedule is not set until about a week before. So then I messaged him on Wednesday that I'm coming into town on Saturday and Sunday and asked if he wanted to hang out. He responded. "It's difficult to say if I have much time over the weekend, but I hope I will!". Now I'm confused... It sounds like I'm somewhat in the middle of his priority list: not high enough to move his schedules around but not low enough to outright say no. He almost sounds like he's waiting for a confirmation from his potential date who he wants to see more? It's just so non-committal but still letting me know that he wants to see me. What do you all think is going on in his life, in his mind? Is this typical of Gemini/Cancer cusp behavior? How do I even respond to that message— Please help!

I think you should take it at face value. Making assumptions about whether or not he can see you for one weekend, is silly.

And, even if there is another... you 2 are only in the dating stage. There are no commitments spoken of, yet.

Slow down and just enjoy the ride. And, try not to give into your insecurities.

My Gemini is on the cusp as well. I was convinced he was a cancer for the longest time, all the neediness you know. But I think his Leo Venus/mars are probably more responsible for that
😄

Like misslissa said, slow down and enjoy the ride. Stay busy and let him make the effort to see you as well.

And try calling him once in awhile. My Gem hates texting and would much rather talk over the phone.

Hmmm I have an Aquarius friend whose a flight attendant. Maya is that you? Lol
