Search Results: response to a thank you

I met this guy on a dating site a few weeks ago and we’ve been texting everyday throughout the day since, with him initiating every morning. He asked me out for our first date. It went well and he and said he wanted to see me again soon after.

Some time passes and I got impatient and asked him on the second date. It seemed like we were both having a good time, but had a slight hiccup (he walked me to my apartment and I tried to kiss his cheek but he was trying to get to my lips but we laughed it off and had a quick peck after, it was an awkward/cute moment). We still expressed to each other that we had a good time.

But, it’s like things changed overnight after that because he’s been texting a lot less frequently and more sporadically. I’ve been used to waking up to a good morning text from him over the past few weeks but so far today, nothing. I also haven’t gotten a response yet from a text I sent yesterday afternoon.

I should also mention, we’re both PhD students so we’re both busy. But it’s literally gone from him texting me to let me know everything he’s doing, to much less frequent texting. It’s been a few days of this but I’m worried. My biggest priority is protecting myself and feelings if this is the beginning of a slow fade. Or maybe he felt weird from our moment from that night? I’d really like some input and can answer any other questions if more info is needed. Thank you.
