Hi all

Background:

He and I have known each other for ages, but didn't talk much because we both had a gf and bf. After I moved to a different city, we started to chat more often. Now, we are living in different cities.

 

 

He is looking for a job, which stresses him out.

He said he would visit me when he lands on a new job, but I don't know

if he really would.

Seemingly, he is not actively looking for a date now because of his job situation.

 

I initiate 80% of contact, and he initiates 20% of contact.

Maybe he initiates conversation once a month.

He replies to my messages instantly, hears me out and sends me long messages. We joke around too.

 

As he doesn't initiate conversation very often, I think he is just polite.

Do you think he's just being polite or he is into me?

If he's just being polite, there's no chance for us?

I find him interesting and want to get to know about him more.

 

Thank you for reading.

He's keeping his options (you) open, so he's not going to shut you down.

 

No, he's not really interested or he would be initiating. Down the road, should he find himself in the desert, with no compelling possibilities, at least he'll have you available as an option.

I don't think he's overly interested in you or he'd be all over you especially since he's got nothing else to do. It's true he may realize he can't have a gf without money and a job though. But I still don't think he's more than mildly interested in you.

If he is "into you" and this is what he has to offer, you're gonna be bored and unfulfilled.

 

he's just being polite -- Stop initiating and see what happens

 

I find him interesting -- Exactly what's interesting about a guy who initiates conversation once a month, is stressed about his job, doesn't want to date because of that but can joke around and lives in another city????
