I don't know. If a man sent me an email saying ... in a sense ... he needed space, I might respond, "Ok, I understand." I mean, what are you supposed to say? And when a man is interested, he always, always finds two minutes to text. If he can't have a conversation, he will say it nicely.
Something went a little wrong, it's not just his job. I'm guessing one or both had misgivings and ended up dropping the ball... but if there is really something good there, a month isn't that long. They can pick up where they left off.
(Though this really does remind me of a pre-breakup, I'm seeing another woman red flag... which can hurt our pride and make us close our eyes to what's happening.)
My bf isn't texting me today. Because I am going on vacation and I can't afford to pay for both of us. He was laid off recently. Plus he has a child at home that needs him. He is aware this is a family thing yet...
Oh, well. He treats me nicely most of the time, but we have our bumps. If he won't text, I won't bother him. He let's me know when he is ready to communicate. I don't sit on pins and needles waiting ... though it's tempting. Life occupies me
.
If a woman wants to know if a man still wants her in his life, staying quiet can be useful. Men who really want me in their life don't stop trying till I file for a ppo
... well, once. And I'm not arrogant. They just want what they want.
