I started seeing this guy after he asked me for my number at my current job (context: he was a costumer). I had a crush on him for a while, so I ended up going on a date once.
He told me he was busy with his job and taking care of his father, but he gave me the impression to be very invested in having a future relationship with me. Most of the date went well. Only couple of weird things was that he refused to tell me where he worked until he was sure of were we standed, he got dissapointed when I refused to kiss him on the first date and he made a comment about his female friend telling him how good his after-shave smelled.
After that and despite living in the same city we barely saw each other. The first week he had a constant comunication via text and we talked a lot. The second week? Barely anything. I tried to keep in contact by taking the inniciative, keeping distance as well as I could. He ended up apologizing for not replying, telling me he was busy but he kept with the same behaviour. After requesting for me to wait until he decided a date to hang out, he finally put one. But everytime the date came, he would say he was busy with work.
I told myself okay, he's busy. It's bothering me but it's fine because he's communicating. I sent him a message on Monday asking him to please tell me if he was still interested or not, that despite not minding waiting I couldn't keep waiting forever without knowing. There was no reply, but he asked to hang out on Thursday. I asked him that day, but he said he couldn't on the day we promised due to work and told we would for sure see each other on Saturday. That day comes by, I get out of work and I see he hasn't text me an hour or place yet. So I decide to ask at around 4 pm. Time passes and he doesn't reply, so I finally cut him off and told him I wasn't interested anymore.
The funny thing is he inmediatly deleted me right after, but he couldn't reply to my message. I had this issue with past relationships (romantic and not) too and I wonder what can I do to do better next time? Maybe I should put better boundaries or simply attempt to talk things out?
