Should I call him???

[MissFattyBooty]

I need help! I've been seeing this guy casually for about 6 weeks. We've decided not to get into a serious relationship because I am going away in septemeber for about a year to finish school even though we both really like each other. The last time I spoke with him on the phone was 8 days ago and we had a little arguement... that I thought was settled. I called him the next day but his phone was disconnected. He sent me an IM 3 days later asking why I hadn't called him. I said his phone was disconnected and he replied that he had a home phone number too. And I told him that I had lost my cell phone and that was the only place I had his home phone number stored. He said he had to run but would talk to me later. I called him 2 days ago and he didn't answer. But his phone was turned back on so I know he knows I called even though I didn't leave a message (I never leave messages unless I have to). He still hasn't called me back. Should I call him? I don't want to look desperate or needy.

I would have told him to call me back (ie. implicit directions). I guess I would wait a week and call back ONCE more, if he fails to return the call then it's safe to assume that he is only looking for a more serious relationship and perhaps you stop talking to him.

 

Anyway, I don't know ANY details so it's really hard to guess at what he's feeling -- things like: did you guys have relations, were things awkward after, does he seem really into you, how serious was the argument, does he seem like he's shopping around etc etc. ??? Good luck! Thanks for sharing!

I think he is still a little peeved about the argument and I would give him time. He will call when he starts missing you so just hang in there. If he doesn't call then I might call once and if you get any static then just drop it and move on. You sound like you don't really want anything serious so I wouldn't worry to much about him.
