    Okay so here goes, I'll keep it short. Met a guy 4 weeks ago, went on a date, then after that been on a few more, get on really well, have a 6 year old little boy, met him and they got on well. Would text pretty much everyday, some days I'd instigate it others he would. But I text on Tuesday gone had a bit of going back and forth, but since Wednesday absolutely nothing from him at all, is it the age old case of he's just not that into me?

    have you phoned him to ask him?

    if not, i suggest you pick up the phone and dial his number and ask him

    Personally I find that particular stage in getting to know someone really difficult...the whole waiting for texts to come, and feeling disappointment when they dont! It sounds like there is definitely interest from him if its been fairly mutual so far, so I can understand your confusion in the current lack of contact. I think some men need time to get their heads around new relationships, and perhaps he's just taking this time to really think it over and decide whether he wants to go on the next step. Its horribly frustrating i know, but if I were you I wouldnt think all hope is lost. Be patient, and if he doesnt contact you, then chances are, hes not ready to go further. Call him if you dont want to wait it out and would like closure, its really hard to convey yourself properly over text message!
    Best of luck!

    Yeah I know what you're saying about picking up the phone, I'm just terrible on the phone, with everyone even friends, I'm much more of a texter, but obviously not everybody is like that. Should I leave it until tomorrow evening and drop a text asking how his weekend went or just completely leave it altogether?

    I'd leave it and get busy with life. If he's interested in seeing you again he'll call. If he's not, calling him won't change his mind. And remember most beautiful word in english language - next!

    I agree with the above couple of posts, i woudnt text him again - let him contact u.....personally dont think i'd have the guts to phone him up... If he likes you he'll get in touch. In the meantime would try & keep busy 2 try & get your mind off him coz constantly watching the phone is totally head recking!!
    hope ya hear from him soon!

    Its been 4 weeks. Relax. People's dependency on texting is ridiculous. If you want to speak to him ring him.

    One thing that I found very odd is why you would introduce your 6 year old to a man you barely know. You need to calm down a bit and stop overthinking and rushing things.
