Should I take a few steps back?

Ok been kinda seeing this leo man for a short time. First let me say no sexual activities have occurred since we started. We have lots in common and I've always make sure when we are together it's laughs and good times. Recently I've noticed that he's been distant. I know this man now for about 3 years and he would say how come you don't call or text and I tell him straight out that now he knows how I feel. I told him I'm only showing you the same kind of acknowledgment you give me. We laughed about it and I told him I would try to keep in contact more. Now I find myself ALWAYS initiating contact. He told me that he likes when he hears from me, that I should do it more often. I don't text him everyday. But I took it upon myself to give him a few days and see if he contacts me it's been 4 days now..we are not a couple or have anything set in stone, and I know he doesn't have any obligations to me. Is this usual for leo's to be this way?

Hi Leyla699,

I've experienced something related with the Leo I'm involved with. I noticed that he only contacted me for a "practical" reason, like arranging when to see each other next, rather than a friendly hello kind of call in between (he's very busy, demanding work schedule, so we can't see each other as often as we'd like). I started to do friendly hello calls if I didn't hear from him for a certain length of time and that worked well and he expressed appreciation. Over time he started to do the same thing sometimes - a call to say hello and catch up a little in between visits. He also reciprocates in other ways like visiting me for a short time soon after the call.

So I think contacting the Leo you know today or soon is a good idea, just to say hello and ask how he is. If he normally appreciates that, he'll be happy about it. If he's going through a hard time he might not be as responsive, but I think inside he'll appreciate it, and maybe later you'll see a reciprocation from it. It sounds like you have a good dynamic with him, if it's usually happy when you do connect. 🙂
