Not sure what to do - Met a guy but is he interested?

    Right, basically I met this guy a few weeks ago and we had a great time together. I headed back to his hotel and he texted me about 10 minutes after I had left thanking me for a great time and that we should do it again.

    I know he's only looking for something casual, and we met again twice, but he admits he hasn't been in a relationship for years after his last relationship (long-term) ended. I have found profiles for him on NSA type websites, so is he just looking for something once-off really? Has the excitement passed for him?

    My question is, will he get in touch with me again? I texted him again 2 days after our last encounter (he didn't send anything to me, so I took the plunge) but he texted me the next day (maybe busy with work?), and it was only a short text not even thanking me for the night together, nor was there any mention of meeting again.

    Is there any hope he'll get in touch again, or should I get the hint and realise he's looking for a quick fling?

    Highly unlikely he will get in touch again and if he does it will only be for sex. There's nothing wrong with having that kind of relationship but both parties need to be on the same page and as you have posted here I don't think you can handle that kind of relationship. Do yourself a favour and forget about him.

    Op been in a similar situation as yourself. I dont think he is interested in anything more than a fling. Id cut your losses.

    I think you know the answer to this already. This guy is demonstrably not the settling down type. That he hasn't made an effort to get back in contact with you and that he took his time to reply politely to your text tells you everything you need to know. Don't fool yourself into thinking that he sees you as more than a pleasant memory.

    You may get a booty call at some stage or an invitation for a hook up perhaps but no, he's not interested and you clearly are so I wouldn't contact him again as I don't think it would do you any good.
