I basically came out and said that I had a good time and would like to see him again. Which he responded to positively, said he was very busy at the moment but definitely soon (a brush off maybe?). Anyway, we kept texting until last night...just banter...until he said he was going to a party so I wished him fun and we left it there.

 

Scale back on the calls/texts. Let him initiate contact. If he's that busy that he can't make plans with you in advance, he wouldn't have been attending a party either. Not so much in a "hastily drop everything to see this person immediately" way, but that when you are genuinely looking forward to seeing someone, you discuss plans if that person makes it obvious that they want to see you.

 

He knows you're interested, and if you should run into each other and things are proceeding well, there's nothing wrong with asking him to a specific restaurant/event/time. (No offer to hang out at each other's homes). If he still says he's busy or otherwise responds vaguely, then you can be absolutely certain that he's not worth your trouble.

Thanks, yeah. That sounds very reasonable.

 

I kind of said (back on Sunday), that he should give me a shout when he can fit me into his 'busy' schedule. I was joking...but I'm a bit concerned he now has this idea of me being available and waiting around for him. The truth is I only have one free day in the next two weeks, but I didn't want to say that cause it sounds a bit stuck up. But yeah...I wish he knew I was actually super busy and not just sat around waiting for him! :(
