Search Results: text messaging a guy

i met this guy two weeks ago. we basically ended up hooking up, and he asked to take me out on a date but i told him im not looking to date anybody. a week after though we ended up talking (text messaging) because he knows one of my friends and he asked about me a few times and I don't know i just ended up deciding to talk to him since he seemed great. he said we can still be friends and lately weve been planning on hanging out.

anyway today was the third time he suggested for us to facetime each other since the last time i saw him was still the first night we met. i really only facetime my closest friends who are girls because im comfortable enough with them. i look really ugly especially on camera and other than that i think im gonna be awkward and i very much prefer talking in person.

im just wondering if this type of behavior turns guys off. i told him the truth that i dont really do facetime, its not my thing, and i look like shit atm... he still said something about complimenting me and how we need to facetime cos he wants to actually talk. after i said no to facetiming i just brought up when we'll be seeing each other again, trying not to appear disinterested and i do genuinely wanna see him again. i wanna facetime as well but then again im insecure about it.

talking in person is different and certainly easier. i have time to get ready and feel comfortable and confident about myself, and no awkard silences or anything. even with my exes who i was with long term i never liked facetiming, i only used audio when we called each other.

A few weeks ago I met a great guy and we started texting. We hit it off straight away and both were surprised by the instant connection. It felt like we had been talking for a lifetime.

The messages were long and often. We were already thinking about meeting for a date.

Then after about a week his work got very busy (I know this is the truth because my company and his company deal with one another) He also runs his company so it's bound to be a hectic job at the best of times.

The messaging started suffering and were not as often but he explained he was busy. The plan was to meet at the weekend but this changed as he had forgotten he had to entertain clients and said he wanted to be on full form to meet me to give the best impression on the first date.

By the weekend the messaging had suffered so much that I said shall we just leave it and you seem far too busy, maybe we can pick it back up again when it's more convenient.

He apologised, said he was very busy but it was no excuse and acknowledged he had been quiet on the messaging. Then he started putting in more effort.

I was supposed to be going to a singles night but I said I would rather see him and do a first date. He didn't reply to this message, and by this point I was getting a bit annoyed. I said well no one has a gun to your head you could say no. He told me not to be like that and that he felt he was in no position to tell me I couldn't go to the singles night.

Since that, this week, he is taking longer to reply but when he does he is still calling me beautiful or babe. He seems less interested somehow.
