We used to work together and he’s been trying to date me by trying to be around me inside and outside of work , invited me to his bbq when his parents were visiting him.

However I pushed him away because someone at work told me he has a bf already. I told him not to come to my class outside of work.

Then he made the decision to go back to his home country (he has dual citizenship) then we talked again and. I confronted him about having a gf already yet following me to my classes. He told me he never had a gf all this time so we know that girl likes him and caused drama between us. He wants us to stay in touch even after he’s gone and said we should get to know each other better.

We went out 4 times and he took meet his friends too. On his last day he had a farewell and we were bar hoping and. I took him to meet my friend. When we left he was confessing how he liked me since he saw me. He tried to kiss me but I said to him you are leaving soon let’s keep things friendly.

The day after he’s not texting me but I text him. The. He asked me out to go dancing. He left his other farewell early just to see me. He told me he said to his friends that there’s this really cute girl he must see again. His friend told him go now.

He asked me many times if he wants me to stay or if I want him to come back. I said didn’t you tell me you feel happier over there? I want you to be where you feel happiest the most. Besides if he comes back for me he might ended up hating me. He goes in case of things don’t work out? I said yes. He goes sometimes you gotta take risk. I was baffled as I’m not sure if he meant it cos if he decided to leave and all I had to say is stay he seems a bit wishy washy?

I let him kiss me that night and it was sad to say bye. We were texting until late and up until the next day before he hop on his plane.

He’s now back to his country but very distance. No longer flirting or affectionate. Last I heard from him was he is going to get a local sim and we will chat later. I messaged back to say hi later it was undelivered. He hasn’t blocked me as I can still see his profile pic and status. I sent him a Facebook request but he hasn’t accepted.

I feel disappointed, sad and worrying about what’s going on with him? He was the one who wants to stay in touch and things were going well the night before he left. I know we can expect much in this situation as he doesn’t know if he wants to come back, but for him to just ignore me does it mean our connection means nothing to him?

Well to be fair, it doesn't sound like you two had that strong of a connection before he left. It sounds like you pushed him back on more than one occasion, but he persisted. The time to have grown close with him was when he was still around, not the day before he left.

Now that he's in another country, communication will inevitably become harder depending on his schedule and the timezone he's in now. You can't expect an increase (or even the same amount) in communication under these circumstances. This is also why people have trouble in long distance relationships.

Aside from the communication delays, know that he is now in another country having new experiences. Since you two weren't in a relationship prior to him leaving, there isn't much tying him to you. Sure he liked you when he left, but that doesn't mean that he won't meet other women down the line. So since he's gone, it's best you not expect much from this situation.

I'm sure he'll contact you when he can, but don't get upset if he can't do so frequently.

Well, could be because he asked you if you wanted him to stay and you said aren’t you happier somewhere else? That would certainly bum anyone out
I asked him previously about what made him decided to leave. He said he is happier in his home country.

He can’t just expect me to say yes you should stay just before he left. Besides it a big decision. Not even his mom should made that decision for him

I wasn’t disagreeing with you. Just saying it was

I’m just throwing out ideas. Could be a million different reasons. Best is to ask him

I was not disagreeing with you. Just saying howit was unfair for him to think that. As I also had a feeling that even I did right by him but it wasn’t appreiciated. He just wanted me to make decision for him. I did sent him a message to tell him his behavior is confusing see what he says

Got it. I think he is confused himself as he told me before he left. He said I made him rethink his decision and he kept on asking hismelf what iS he doing and why is he leaving etc.

Also he seems to be wishy washy at work and other decisions he made. I thought I would just clear the air as I know I did push him away in the past (even it was caused by a girl who was trying to keep us apart cos she fancies him even she already has a bf)

To be honest he is average looking and my guy friends think he is ugly but girls at work digs him

Why would you care what your guy friends think about another guy's looks? They clearly aren't attracted to him, so of course they'd think he was unattractive. However what does it matter? Other people's opinions shouldn't matter. That being said, the girls at work have clearly picked up on something that your guy friends have not.

He is a very nice person. Idk how he interacts with them may be he compliments them a lot I’m not sure.

On the farewell I took him and one of the girls from work to meet my friend. That girl was being really sexual with him with the way she talks. He was very gentleman and helped her with her bags. He even walked her out of the club. I thought they were going home together but he came back to me

He responded to apologize about the delay and told me in details about what caused that. He said he’s been constantly thinking of me and it was bad timing that we got closer before he left. He then asked if he could call and speak to me.

He then FaceTime me but during FaceTime we didn’t really talk about feelings more like filling each other in. He said he thought he would do a video call cos he wants to see the real me. He asked me to visit and then asked for the next FaceTime chat.

Yes he’s just getting lazy though haha I guess since he’s been away I’ve been initiating. Yesterday we texted again right after the call as he still want to chat but I had to go.

We text more I’m the last person who text so waiting for him to initiate. The sweet thing is he is sleeping next to the farewell present I gave him. I wish he can initiate more haha
