Search Results: calling after first date

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.
