Why hasn't he got back to me?

Hello everyone,

 

I recently got in touch with a guy I used to date. I've been thinking about him for the past few months and found out that he was going to be speaking at an event (he's an up-and-coming comic book artist). So I decided to go there hoping to talk to him, but couldn't muster up the courage to approach him, as we didn't end things 'amicably' back when we broke up – 2 years ago. Anyway, I decided to send him an email, to say that I was at the event and I really enjoyed his comic book. He emailed me back saying if I wanted to meet up sometime, he'd be in town the following week. Then I emailed back saying I would like that and we could grab some drinks and catch up, etc. This exchange took place four days ago and he hasn't got back to me to confirm.

 

I know that he's been in Canada since Wednesday (work related). But I also know that he has internet access as he's constantly tweeting. So I'm not sure if he's trying to blow me off or he's just busy and will get back to me when he's back town.

 

I know that it's ridiculous and I shouldn't even think about this. But I can't help but get obsessed over it.

 

Anyway, I appreciate any insight :) Thank you!

He threw the ball in your court; you should have reciprocated with a date, time, and location and not left it up to him to ask you.

This. You should've offered specifics. I mean, you wanted to meet up so why not offer a time/place?

If I were him and it wasn't an amicable break I wouldn't reply unless I had to for some reason eg. they said they would be at X at Y time to meet me. In which case I would decline.

I also wouldn't follow it up. I would leave it be.

I did offer a couple of possible dates in my email. I thought we could figure out the location once the date is settled. But he hasn't said anything after that...

Then leave it be...he doesn't want to re-kindle things.

I guess you're right.

Sweetie it's simple. He is not interested.

 

You took a chance contacting him. That took guts and I admire you for that.

 

But clearly he is just not into it, or he *would* have gotten back to you. Especially since you gave dates you were available...

 

Let it go....sorry.

I'm curios, who did the dumping?

Sorry to say but you're low priority to him. He's either deciding whether or not to see you again or he's just not interested. Either way it's his call. But don't hold your breath. If he was excited to see you again he would have moved mountains to arrange something with you already. Time to move on IMO.
