I went out Saturday with a guy I went to college with, but we never really talked because we were both really shy and quiet. We had met again online and e-mailed back and forth for two weeks, then texted two weeks before we actually went out. We seemed to have a lot in common and a good connection. We had both admitted that we are extremely shy and afraid of rejection, and had talked about how we have both been treated pretty badly in our former relationships and were looking for someone that would treat us right. I do remember that he was really shy and quiet in college. We seemed to be comfortable and talked a lot during dinner, but afterwards we rented a movie and went back to my place to watch. The mood kind of changed, it seemed like we were really shy and didn't talk much. Anyway, afterward we somehow ended up doing the deed. He stayed all night, and I had to pick up my son from the babysitter the next morning, and he stayed in bed and gave me a kiss before I left and said he would be there when I got back, which he was. A few days before the date he mentioned going out again Sunday, but then before he left he said he had to go to work. I do know that he is extremely busy with his job right now, but I would have thought that if he knew about it he would have mentioned it before he was leaving. So I automatically assumed he was trying to blow me off and I wouldn't hear from him again. However, before he left he gave me a hug and a kiss and told me to call or text him later. He ended up texting me first, later that day, and still texts me every day. I am so confused. On one hand I think maybe he's not interested, but on the other hand I wouldn't think that he would still be texting me if he wasn't interested. Is he interested and just too shy to show it, or is he trying to blow me off? He hasn't mentioned going out again, and I want to ask but if I put myself out there and he says no I will be crushed. Can anyone help me out with this?
If you had sex, and he texed you every day after, he is interested. He is shy, and so are you, so it will be awkward until you two learn each others signals! Don't worry so much and plan a date with him, both of you have input on it, this will help him feel less shy with you as time goes on.
My advice would be that, he is definitely interested. He is texting you everyday and he has shown that he cares. So suggest going out somewhere one night, let him know that you are still interested, because it sounds like what you both need is some confidence in each other. He will think he is demonstrating that by texting. So he is looking for some reassurance from you. Make a move, I know it will be a little outside your comfort zone, but I don't think you will have any problems at all.
Thanks guys, you really helped out. I finally got up the nerve to ask if he'd be interested in going out again sometime, and he said yes! We haven't made the plans yet because he is really busy, but at least I sort-of know where we stand at the point. - 10 months ago
