Minnie09 Posted December 25, 2013 Posted December 25, 2013 What does it mean if a guy texts you all the time but never asks you out? He has called occasionally, we have been on one date, we get along on the phone, the date was nice.....even though I cannot tell if he was shy or arrogant / not interested (no kiss for whatever reason.......and I definitely wouldn't have pushed him away), but ever since then......no other date, conflicting schedules, etc. He also never really suggested anything, other than one time where he wanted me to keep a Saturday open....and another where he asked me the same......these dates never happened....he never called to confirm. So frustrating. Does he want me to suggest something or is he just keeping me on the backburner? Last thing he texted (last weekend) was "I wish I was taking you out this weekend".......huh??? What the hell does that even mean? We didn't even talk about what plans I had that weekend, or that I wasn't able to meet him or anything like that. He didn't even suggest anything. I just mentioned that I am glad it's the weekend. And then he says I wish I was taking you out? That's it. No suggestions. WTH? He is approaching 50 and I am like 10 years younger. What language is he speaking? Definitely not mine. Can anybody help? It's probably one of these situations where they are not interested enough to make a move.
rocketman122 Posted December 25, 2013 Posted December 25, 2013 either he's shy or a pussy or a douche playing games. my money is on #3. maybe he has something else on the side and holding you on the back burner. if a guy is interested he will do what it takes to get you.
simplicity1 Posted December 25, 2013 Posted December 25, 2013 Is it possible he's married? I read this as 'I wish I was taking you out instead of my wife who I haven't mentioned to you yet for obvious reasons"...
Author Minnie09 Posted December 25, 2013 Author Posted December 25, 2013 Divorced. All kids out of the house. Girlfriend maybe? But I don't think so. Who knows though..... He would've said I wish I COULD take you out this weekend if he'd had other plans with someone else. Not I wish I was taking you out. To me it sounded like he was expecting me to say something like "yea, why don't you" or "great, I'm free sat / sun" or something like that. I dunno. He seems weird.
Author Minnie09 Posted December 25, 2013 Author Posted December 25, 2013 And every time he makes contact he calls me gorgeous or beautiful and whatnot. Assuming that a shy man wouldn't say that I think l'll have to put him in the "in a committed relationship" or "keeping me on the back burner" category. Or both
regine_phalange Posted December 25, 2013 Posted December 25, 2013 My experience is this; he has unfinished business. Probably waiting for an ex to come back to him. But because he is not sure it is going to happen, he is keeping you around, just in case!
