is he just not that into me?

I really, really need some advice about this matter!

i've been "talking" to this guy since January, hung out with him here and there, you know, "talking". When we're together, he holds my hand, kisses me, makes me laugh, and acts pretty much like a boyfriend would. But the moment I stop seeing him, he never texts me.

Everytime I text him, though, he answers immediately.

I have made it very obvious that I like him, I have even told him. (I also told him that he should text me more often). I actually gave in last thursday and texted him because it had been a week since he had last texted me. I'm not going to lie, I was kind of drunk. I told him I was going to ask him to come dancing with me that night. he replied with "you should've, babe" and I said, how am I supposed to know that you like me if you don't act like it? and he said, "shut up, you know I like you."

He hasn't texted me since then though, and its been a week. I haven't texted him either, I want to wait to see if he'll actually text me first. Right now we're both home from college for spring break though, and i'm kind of shocked he hasn't tried to reach me now that we're both in the same town.

Do you think I should just give up on him? should I keep texting him first? or should I wait for him to text me first for once? is he just messing around with me?

people say i'm not supposed to put so much importance in texting, but isn't a week a little too long not to text the girl you supposedly like?

please help this ignorant girl decode man behavior.

I hate to say it but it is very odd considering he is comfortable to kiss touch and be with you in such a relaxed manner yet is unable to text let alone contact you in a whole week while you both are in the same town with nothing but time to kill. If he really was THAT into you and the relationship was new you'd think he'd be making up excuses left and right to get together with you, something is certainly off.

Either he is playing games, playing it really slow, or he really is not as into you as you are into him.

I would suggest to definitely let him go. This doesn't look like is going to get serious 'cause he's not serious at all. If he were genuinely interested he would be making the moves and he would try to communicate with you either through text or phone calls. He's just fooling around and you are wasting valuable time trying to figure him out. Just forget about him and find someone else.
