Yea I think that's what he's doing. He responded back but now he's taking a while to respond :/

Hi OP,
One of the posters raised an important point, which you may have missed.
Did you inform this man that you've been diagnosed with ADD and are prone to forgetfulness especially when super busy with other things? If you gave him some fair warning about your condition beforehand, this might not be an issue. He may understand why you keep forgetting to respond to his texts. If you didn't then I have to agree with the other posters, he may have concluded you're not interested and has moved on.
His responding to your most recent text could be out of politeness, but he's now taken your cue in terms of the length of time to respond to texts.
A Taurus needs clear indication of interest from the person they're interested in, and this includes being consistent with communication and initiating more than 0.2% of the time.

Are you buttering me?! Is this really how needy Taurus are or at least the ones who've responded telling an adult with a life, that going fwd if "she's really serious" about this guy, another adult, that she's got to kiss his as* and jump at any contact from him just to reinforce her interest in him? Sheesh, have some respect for yourselves! How about he grab onto those so bragged about bull balls of his and just be confident in having the lady's interested. She's just busy doing butter! Reach out, if he doesn't respond after you've made a sincere attempt to reconnect go let his emotional as* cry in a corner. ¢ Oh and yea, I guess this is my Aqua cusp side shining through.
Posted by letterbox10No I haven't told him. Isn't me reaching out a sign that I'm interested though? When you mean taken my cue, you mean he's just mirroring my behavior?

op, forgetfulness is a symptom of add. i can appreciate that it makes things difficult. have you considered medication? it might even you out and give you a greater chance of maintaining relationship, be it friendship or otherwise.
Posted by KoniuchaNo but I clearly should now haha.
Do you write stuff down? Maybe get yourself some sort of little chalkboard. Write on it 'Don't forget to call Taurus!'
actions speak louder than words
Posted by busyeyes88Yea I'm thinking that's the best approach. I know if the tables were turned I would appreciate a genuine explanation and then see how you if toy improved from there. Busy, do you think if he had completely lost intetest he wouldn't have responded? I'm not sure if he's distancing himself or not...he asked where his cake was lol (random joke) in reply to my hey text.Posted by leodilemma19900730Perhaps you should tell him? If you two have some casual thing going and you want to keep his interest then perhaps you should let him be aware of why you have not responded to his messages a week later?! It's just being polite not " as some other poster said!Posted by letterbox10No I haven't told him. Isn't me reaching out a sign that I'm interested though?

Posted by idkThank you so much! Per everyone's advice I'm def going to start writing things down lol.

i think i've gone through about 3 different kinds within maybe 10 years. this was the most durable i've found so far, and it's still going.
Posted by AgentP911Just some final questions. Given my behavior I can't expect for him to stop being cautious/withdrawn right away can I? It's going to take me showing consistency isn't it?Posted by leodilemma19900730Result! Nice one! Just take it easy and maybe start out as friends (not with benefits) to give yourself some thinking time. You gotta sort that communication out though! I'll let you off though as you're only a young 'un!Posted by AgentP911© I know right lol. I clearly need to work on the way I communicate. I haven't casually dated/courted in such a long time (ended a 5 year relationship months ago) and I'm only 23 so I guess I'm just kind of lost right now lol. He did finally get back in contact with me though.Posted by leodilemma19900730Jeez... And you wonder why you're confused...Posted by AgentP911I texted him at 1AM saying hey, wake up.
Well I dunno, you could have told him to treetrunk off ‰
What did you tell him?
....as I'm typing this im realizing that probably wasn't that good of an idea lol :/click to expand
^^^ just meet him and have an open conversation about it all. Be clear with yourself about what you would like from him and then be clear with him about what you want and how you would like to go about it. He can do the same. You know, like adults...
I asked you before what it is you want from him and what you would like to see happen? You ignored it in favour of regurgitating the same waffle and you still got nowhere!
1) Do you:
A) like him as a friend
B) like him as casual sex
C) like him to date him for a possible relationship
2) if it's as a friend then be clear with him that you only see him as a friend and nothing more therefore there's fewer expectations and drama between you.
If it's casual sex then do not expect anything more and do not get involved if you can't handle it.
If it's dating for a possible relationship then consider if you are even available emotionally and have the time and interest to bother with him. You could take it slow and make time once a week but explain you're interested in him but are trying to balance other things but that it won't be forever. See how it goes.
3) do you even know what he's looking for?
4) regarding your ADD, you can either have an open conversation about it (if you think he will understand and accept) and/or put measures in place to combat it so you're not 'forgetting' things. You don't have to tell him immediately. Depends how well you know him. However, you can't continue as you have been as its crap behaviour which is not helpful. Consistent behaviour is important with everyone and everything. As for how he will respond. Who knows?
5) stop looking at the stuff that doesn't mean anything like a random text and spending hours analysing it or posting if here expecting strangers to provide answers for you.
6) ask him to meet you, coffee, lunch, dinner, whatever you usually do and talk face to face.
If you can't manage the above then leave him alone.

taurus or not, there are ways to say things to people.
rather telling him that he is not moving fast enough for you and your timescale, it would have been better to communicate in a way that doesn't put you in opposition but on the same team
