catherine9 Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 So I met this guy online and it seemed like things were going good. We texted a lot in the beginning and every time we've met up (he initiated the first 2 meet ups, I initiated the 3rd one) we've had a good time, although there really wasn't any physical contact. However, for the past 2 weeks, it seems like things have been slowing down a lot. Recently, I'm always the one initiating texts (to be fair, he did initiate most of them in the beginning) and whenever I, for example, ask him how his weekend went, he would respond within 24 hours but he wouldn't try continuing the conversation by asking about mine (which he used to do before). Has he lost interest? Am I being friend zoned? I've never had a boyfriend before (I'm 22) so I don't know how any of this is supposed to work. Also, it doesn't seem like he's attached to his phone (he doesn't even have a data plan) so maybe this level of contact at this point is normal for him? I have no clue. Should I just stop and move on?

Should I just stop and move on? Yes hon, he has lost interest. This happens all the time and it's no one's fault. You meet someone, you go on 1-2-3 dates then you know she-he is not the type of person you want to date and you move on. A lot of people don't have the courage to tell the other person they're not interested in continuing so they just slowly disappear, take forever to reply, sometimes don't reply, etc. Yes you move on to next. 2

Should I just stop and move on? I'll let you in on a little secret of dating from someone who's been doing it 20yrs now. It doesn't matter what his reasons are. The fact is when you contact him now he's not interested in continuing on the conversation. That action is all you need to know. Yes, move on. If you start telling yourself stories about why he's doing this or that then you'll just cling to hope long past the point where you should have given up. Women tend to do this time and time again. They make excuses because they don't like what reality is giving them. It never ends well. No guy is ever worth hanging in there for, ever. If someone goes lukewarm on you that's the moment to forget them. 3
