Spoke too soon. Just received the text "Can you at least tell me why you're ghosting me?"


He's definitely the argumentative type so I don't think it's worth explaining.

I think you should tell him why. Tell him again that you are stopping communication because he being too busy does not work for you.

I would speak to him at this point. But I wouldn't give him anything to argue against and keep the vollying texts going. Plain and simple: "Look, I'm sorry, I'm just not feeling it. You're a great guy but we're not a match. Take care."

HE KNOWS WHY.

He's just playing dumb so we can get into a back and forth. I don't want to deal with him.

My brother says he'll figure it out, and I'm going with that too.

Good enough.

Geez, what a child this guy is.

Perhaps focus on Quality (time) over quantity -- for example agree to a day or two per week to spend together, and then leave him alone to be "super busy" on the other days.

Guys who are into their SO do like spending couples time together, actually.

But not 24/7. Since the OP did not specify how much time she wants, it is impossible to comment on it specifically. (And my suggestion of a couple of days a week does assume couples time.)

I do too darlin. When dating I like to spend time 2-3 days a week together (prob the weekend and 1 weeknight) and text daily. (Or talk on phone daily if he prefers that). This guy didn’t have time for nothing, not even a text. Those were his words. Whether it’s true or not, I don’t give a crap anymore.

PS- now he’s texted me from another phone number asking if I’ve blocked him. I’ve never seen him text so much. Whatever, I’m over it.
