Hello - a workmate and I recently confessed we had feelings for each other at a conference in June. He works on the east coast, I work in Australia. We have worked together for almost 4 years though in different countries, and we meet about 3-4 times a year over which time workmateship > friendship > crush. About 3 weeks after we confessed on the final day of the conference (nothing happened), I had a chance to go to the US for a work trip, and he drove up 5 hours to meet me there for what would I guess be a 30 hour first date which went AMAZINGLY well (yes it included a stay over). Since I am not going to be in the US till October, when I relocate, we agreed to keep in touch and not kickstart a relationship till I get there - my decision, he agreed. Still, we ended up talking, chatting, phone and text, non stop from then till now - mostly initiated by him but heavily reciprocated by me, high frequency, no matter how busy we both were. Except that suddenly in the last 4 days he has gone deathly silent. I have sent him one casual message a day, the last being a birthday message on Friday. He was at a work conference all this week, but that hasn't stopped him in the past, infact he loves telling me how the meetings are going and getting my advice on career stuff (which I love 🙂). So, what gives? Birthday blues? Doesn't know how to let me know he wants to let me go? Suddenly not into me? He isn't the type to have other girls on the side, cause he was seriously way into me (in his own words when I mentioned it was scary to make the decision to not kickstart till Octover, "I can't believe you would worry about me going to someone else, if there was someone I would fall in love with it would be you"). I'm happy to get over him, but should I? Or should I wait a bit longer?

But wouldn't he know from my messages in the last 4 days (none of which he has replied to!) that I'm into him? One of the messages I sent was was "not sure why but I have really been missing you the last 2 days, and wishing I could show you around town.. I like the feeling 🙂". I'm thinking that's the opposite of cold feet?
Pruve it ! ,initiate things too 🙂

The past 4 days that you have sent a message, were they just kinda "how's your day going?" Messages? If so, maybe try telling him some feelz. He will prob like that very much. It's his birthday week and his lady isn't there to celebrate with him. He's prob not feeling "complete". We like to be pampered for our birthday! So yea, he's prob feeling a little blue.

Just my thinking. Hope it helps

Gosh, so strange. And here I was thinking I was giving away my feelings too much with the message about me missing him (see my comment above).. hm.. he is due to receive the gift I sent to him tomorrow when he reaches work though, so that should brighten up his day. I will wait till his Monday is done and then message and ask him if he liked my birthday gift 🙂

Turns out I had lost a few of his messages while switching between US and Australian phones. He had been responding. The truth came out when I sent him a message saying I was really disappointed that he didn't tell me why he had decided to disappear, but I would respect it and stop contacting him. He called back immediately, a bit confused as he had responded. After me being annoyed for about 10 minutes, I got over it and we went back to our normal chats. All good - thank you all for being so lovely when I was hurting from the thought of needing to get over him. I think its made me realize I like him a lot more than I let on, even to myself. It's a good feeling, and I can't wait till I get to the states to do this thing properly.
