Hey! my name is Jane

Been reading here for pretty long and it has helped me a lot. Now I'm hoping you guys can help me out again with my first post.

I decided to try online dating and found an amazing man living in another city 45 min away from me. We've been speaking for about a month and I've figured that he's definitely a man of my life. At first I had a great game and was even impressed by myself. But the more I talked to him and got more comfortable.

Date 1: Took a walk, he guided me around her city
Date 2: Dinner
Date 3: he took the train to my city and we discovered Stockholm together, then dinner. All the time holding hands. We finished the date with cinema, but we kissed more than looking at the actual movie.

As usual I sent a message after the date saying "Had a great time, I want to see you again soon". He suggested that I should come visit him then, so 3 days later I did.

Date 4: First took a walk then movie at his place. His mother called and he answered "I'm with Jane, talk later". That means he had mentioned me to his mother? Probably good? During the movie we started making out. We didn't go further though. At 00:00 I left cause I knew he was going up early and me too (Tuesday). I sent him a text saying "Hope to see u soon )<3". He replied "Of course! and a kiss smiley".

Our next conversation was on snapchat. I commented on his story, wished him a great weekend (went to visit his friend)

I was a bit surprised that he didn't text me like he used to, so sent him a "thinking about you" on Sunday evening when I knew he'd be home. he replied with just a smiley and asked if I had a great weekend. The conversation continued, but he was a bit cold and not as flirty as he used to be. I invited him to my place and told him I'd try to beat his friend in the MasterChef challenge.

Here comes the problem. He denied and said he was busy whole week with studies. He didn't say that he wanted to see me, but not that he didn't want to see me either. I continued the conversation a bit and he replied even though I didn't ask questions, but still cold.

I've probably fucked up totally. My current plan is to not text him in a week and see what happens. Fellas! Please give me some tips, because I really like this man and don't want to blow it! Don't tell me It's too late.
 
I agree in my mind with idea that he needs to feel validated by having you "Chase" him. The fact that he is always running off, waiting for you to run after him to make things better.... This is not a trait of a mature man. It's not okay to make you feel like you are always the one to make amends, and give him reassurance. It almost seems like a game to him to see how far he can push you without you leaving.

For him to refuse to return your texts/calls for so long, and then finally respond as though you are annoying him is childish and just plain rude. Is this really your ideal man?

You are absolutely right is to not text him in a week and see what happens, but if I were you? I wouldn't. Not at all. You didn't do anything wrong, yet you have to play his I Love You I Love You Not game? I think not.

I would seriously suggest you to read this. It's not fair to you to always be playing by his rules, and being manipulated into catering to him whenever he is moody.

When he contacts you again, be firm and let him know that you need more stability in your relationship and he can't be playing Hot and Cold at his whim. If he doesn't contact you? Let him leave. It's truly his loss, not yours :)

...blah, blah, blah.

Uh huh.
 
I am just going to throw this out there... to me? Seems like the OP is having a conversation with "herself" in these two posts.

Maybe you're not that hot?
 
I'm not a guy but here you go.

He's not as into you, as he thought he was.
Another woman he's been seeing, he's gotten more serious about.
He was hoping 4 dates would be enough for you to put out and has moved on.
He was busy and not thinking of you.

In all four of the scenarios, your solution is the same. Don't text, don't call, forget him, if he wants you he will contact you hopefully by then you'll have someone new.
You don't want a man who isn't straightforward.

I didn't want to be blunt, but to me it seems the same, ( the first 2 scenarios being more likely)
However, even if myself & Parodylovr are both mistaken and your gut feeling is right & he's into you,
- Don't call him again & wait for him to make a move (they usually do, if they are interested). Because he might misinterpret your need for closure & think you are a bit intrussive

Any of these could easily be true, and if any of them are....it's too late.
 
It is possible that he is really into you, has had a bad experience in the past and has freaked himself out. It happened to me. The best thing to do is wait him out. Go on and live your life. He might be watching to see what you do, mine was.

If you have some news sometime send it to him, but in a manner that doesn't require a response. You don't have to send words, you know. You can send pictures, sounds, music, in my case, I send a video of my feet walking. In my youth, I once sent someone a single piece of red licorice.

When he contacts you again, tell him that you were worried, concern, hurt, or whatever, but otherwise just continue as you left off. He will eventually tell you what is happening.

If a guy is scared and conflicted about being in a relationship, an ultimatum just makes it worse. Sometimes people need time and space to work stuff out from the past.

The permutations are endless. What is obvious is that neither one are communicating. She's bitching about him and quite frankly I can see him writing the same post.

Some one ought to write the whole thing off, quit playing games, and go take some seminars on communication.

I don't get why she did do something to make the making out go further if she wanted that. She should carry condoms for just such a possibility :)

If the guy is already making out with you, it's pretty easy to get more if you want it.
 
Gosh, ladies,
This thread really got me in the mood & I could go on forever. But I don't want to hijack it.
It would be fun if someone started a 'mainly for women' thread on similar issues - for entertainment and for sharing 'words of wisdom'. I would start such a thread myself, but I'm not too visible or popular.
 
This is a dude.

He is whining cause a female is not as into him as he thought she would be. Oh noes, I went to her city and spent money but got nothing from it.

Leave her be. If she doesn't want to go further, then she does not want to.

Hate to say it (but I will, even if you have me on iggy)
but I looked back at the initial post. -- and I think you might be right.
 
RULE OF THUMB FOR WHEN ITS TIME TO GO:

Anytime your partner acts nutty or secretive.
 
Two things..

1. Be more confident. Plenty of fish in the sea, who cares if one doesn't work out? You were only 4 dates into it. Think to yourself, "his loss"

2. The heart emoticon was where you overstepped things, using it too soon. Then you seem to have gotten a little clingy.

3. See number one.

He's really whiney for a dude.
