I'm very confused by a man I recently met... 3 weeks ago... I'm really attracted to him.. Really! LOL very handsome and charming, anyway so far after our initial meet which was at work, we have only texted.. We have had a few phone conversations but mostly texting. He texted constantly the night I invited him out and he couldn't go... Texted me all night... Now it seems I do all the initiating... He never text first. I always do but he responds back instantly.. I keep hinting I want to see him privately or you know a date lol but nothing... What is up, why does he respond so quickly but not make the move? I'm going crazy, can't stop thinking about this man! Any ideas, insights would be appreciated!

How often are you texting him?

Wait and see how long it takes him to text you. In my experience, I've had the best luck if I let the man take the initiative. It's okay to text first, but ONLY about every 4th interaction. Let him pursue you and let him wonder what you're up and where you went. He will get curious and see whats happening.

Don't chase him, it makes you less attractive to him. Men like to be the conquerors and men like to do the chasing. It's that hunter mentality men have had since the beginning of time. See, if you come across too available,(and chasing him makes you look too easy or desperate), he will lose interest FAST! Attraction for a man builds when he has to work for it.

I've texted him really only 1x a week... Just to say Hi... I've just met him so..when I've texted he responds immediately, even if he is busy working... Once I've initiated we text back and forth for hours and if we are both able to talk he will say let me just call you, so I am thinking he really doesn't like to text.. I really want him to ask me for a cup of coffee or something!

After a heavy heart I texted him today and asked if he could call me today.... He is married and I'm broken hearted. I know that's it for me... He sounded sad when I told him I wouldn't be initiating any conversations anymore ... God I hate my life... I really really like(d) him! I'm gonna melt when I see him at work... Luckily he won't be there too much longer...
