Thanks for reading and any suggestion!
I'm interested to know why this topic came up. Why was it mentioned?

Don't do it, one thing I've learned is that if a man is interested, he will show it. I think you should just preoccupy yourself with other things, hobbies, your career, family, friends, school, etc. just to keep you from focusing all of your attention on him. If you consider that it is common knowledge, that most people take growing distance from a potential romantic partner, as not being interested, I'd think he'd be doing everything he could to assure you he's interested.

To be honest, it sounds like he may have another girl he's more interested in and actively pursuing but wants to keep you on hold just in case things with her doesn't work out.

Move on, you deserve someone who actually has time to date; I mean if he's this busy he really shouldn't be dating...but like I said, he's probably lying...

What's the big deal if she contacts him and she finds out he's not interested? It's not like her world is going to come crashing down on her...big deal, at least she won't have to wonder anymore, and she can move on to the next guy.

I actually chucked at this one, I picked my husband and we have been together 10 years and married 7 years this October.

good for you!
this guy though, appeared to be interested after first date, and didn't play the "wait 3 days to call the date" game, he wrote me email to express his interest the same day we had our first date. So I thought he's real.

still haven't contacted him. but still not over it.

After the second date, if he didn't feel like seeing me again, he could just say so. why email me asking what I want to do and " will go from there." After I replied him that I definitely wanted to see him again then he became busy...

not nice

Good for you OP. I'm sorry you have to go through this but unfortunately, that's a part of dating. Knowing when to move on, being rejected, it sucks, but you get over it. You WILL find someone else and laugh at how you were every so hung up on this guy to begin with. I have never seen a guy wait 3 weeks to contact someone after going on 2 dates unless...he really was not interested. It's best to just forget about him. He seems pretty wishy washy anyway, do you really want to put up with that?
