    So it's not a big problem in the grand scheme of things but would appreciate any input.

    Girl (me, 28), meets boy (30)....really clicks with him, just gets on great etc but neither of us arranged to meet up again or anything so put it down to just one of those good nights and left it. Anyway, he sought me out a few weeks later on a night out....met up and did the number swap etc...some texting, usually started by me but that's ok. Even a date, all went very well..he phoned a couple of days after..plucked up courage to ask him out to cinema about two weeks after...he said he had other plans last weekend (which I believe, no reason not to) but no word since..and I haven't gotten in touch..now in fairness, he doesn't seem to be a texter but does reply straight away if I do and not just one word replies but long ones and initiates further responses etc.....so I don't know is that it? We are both extremely busy with work and hobbies and I like that fact so that ain't an isue either....I don't know what I'm asking but he seemed v keen and had done some background diggin on me (don't have mutual friends but would be from simialr areas in Dublin) so is it that he's just lost interest or should I make contact again? Don't want to appear desperate but first guy I have felt like this about in absolutely years...
    Thanks for any advice - even if it is to just stop thinking about it and get a life!!

    He's not just slow off the mark. Sorry but I don't think he's all that interested. Or at least not as interested in you as you are in him.
    You went on a date and he didn't make a follow up date until you asked 2 weeks later? And then he said no but didn't make a different arrangement?

    It sounds like he likes you a bit, just not enough. Or he did like you at the beginning but for some reason has cooled his jets on the whole thing.

    I think you knew that if you stopped texting him then you wouldn't hear from him. So don't text him again. He was replying because he was being polite and he was flattered probably.

    But leave it now. He knows you like him. He knows you want to see him again. Ball is very much in his court. Up to him as to whether he hits it back or not but you need to stop investing so much into what is a one way thing at the moment.

    Thanks for the replies - prob needed to see it spelled out to me to see that yeah, if was that bothered he'd be in touch! Re girlfriend, I don't think so, he found me on facebook and added me as friend. . he's been v open talking about me with his friends so if he has a gf then he's v v clever!
