This guy I am dating for a few weeks has become really distant. I don’t want to get hurt in the end so that’s why I’m reach out to you guys (and gals). In the first 2 weeks of dating we really connected, we talked and talked about everything. After that second week, work started to get more stressful for the both of us and we sort of lost that imitate connection. I have still managed to squeeze time to see this guy, but the guy... not so much. I really like him, don’t get me wrong, but I am having a hard time understanding if he is slowly growing distant because he is swamped with work or because he is losing interest. Now (5 weeks of knowing each other), he texts me a lot less frequently, talks only about his work and how stressful it is, gets a bit sexual/flirtatious texting, asks me less questions. Also, we have seen each other in person probably about 8 times. I don’t want to come off as a control freak, I just am really oblivious when it comes to guys and determining if they are interested in me.
I know some of you will say that he has priorities and I am not one of them and I completely respect that. He has every right to know what his priorities are and could change them however he would like.
I have past relationships with guys who slowly lost interest in me, and I hope this isn’t the case with this guy. Should I just wait a few weeks? See how everything plays out with his work, and if he still seems like he is losing interest, should I just use my energy and time elsewhere? I’ve talked to friends and family about it, I don't know what to think. I think I am overthinking haha. Any advice could help thanks!
