Context: Hi, i am 27F and I recently gave up on dating apps. I am actually in a really good place in life and a partner is not necessarily my top goals. My thinking is to be open to opportunities but not push for it.
A week ago I met a guy at a friends party and it was clearly a setup. He is 27m and he got out of a 7 year old toxic relationship this year.
At the party where I met him we struck a conversation and discussed how our friends want us to hook up. He asked me what my thoughts were on that and I told him that I would want to get to know him more before hooking up. So after the party he started texting me non stop.
Not gonna lie this guy has no game but since I am “trying to keep an open mind” and “date men that are not my type” I was okay with carrying the conversation.
This weekend we met for a meet cute park date and it was actually kinda fun. Ngl, there were zero butterflies in my stomach but again, I am keeping an open mind so I went ahead with it.
After the date I came home and sent him a “I had a great date” text and he replied 2 hours later. I did not think much of it but his replies just got slower until he ghosted me all day yesterday only to text me at night with a “Oh today was just so busy”
I can understand that he is scared to start something since his breakup is fresh, plus I did ask him stuff about his ex relationship which must have been tough for him to talk about. But I just wish he would have communicated that to me. Had he told me he is only here to hookup OR was afraid to get into something, I would have admired the honestly.
But the ghosting just sort of put me off and now I most definitely have an ick. He’s been trying to text me again this morning but I just cannot seem to get myself to reply. I think I am offended and it did feel disrespectful. I love myself too much to tolerate that from somebody. And I dont even like him that much.
I did think of texting him and telling him how I felt but knowing men the way I do, I fear he will just think I am too clingy or crazy.
Am I being too quick to judge here? Should I give him another chance?
