I’ve been seeing this guy and while things are going well, it’s pretty obvious that I’m WAY more into him than he is into me. To be fair to him, our mutual friends describe him as being a very awkward person and inexperienced with dating, so I’m sure that some of this stems from that. But I ALWAYS have to be the one to make plans (even the time he canceled on me last minute, I was the one to reschedule). I always text him first. I’m always the one to say hi if we see each other in public. I always initiate any sort of touching, affection, etc. It feels like if I never texted him again he’d shrug and move on without questioning it.
It’s making me a little crazy. I’m just always kind of waiting for him to send me the “it’s not you it’s me” text. At the same time, the couple times I’ve tried to give him a chance to put a little distance between us (offering to go home instead of staying the night, offering to call it a day when our date started going extremely long, asking if he wanted to reschedule after he canceled), he reacts with so much confusion at the the fact that I’m even asking. When we had a “what is this” chat, he said that he liked me and wanted to see where we could go/didn’t want anything casual!
It feels so dumb to end things with a guy I really like, who has SAID that he likes me, just because he doesn’t do what I’ve come to expect from people I’m dating. At the same time, a guy not doing ANY of those things is usually a damn billboard saying “not interested!!”, so it also just constantly feels like I’m pursuing someone who’s basically doing everything he can to shake me off. It just feels so…desperate. Is it even possible that he’s just that awkward, or am I kidding myself here?
